The sequel is quite different than the first in the series. It is in B&W and is completely unflinching in its depiction of the inhumane treatment the main character issues to his victims. There is a level of shock, and yes revulsion, that you experience as you watch it that would be difficult to duplicate. You do need to be able to completely divorce yourself from what happens in a movie and in reality because what is depicted is nothing but the behaviour of someone who is truly mentally ill.In its own peculiar way, it is a masterpiece - one of the greatest achievements in the history of cinema. Very few people will be able to sit through it, yet one can only give it the highest recommendation to those who feel they are up to the challenge.
i can understand why a lot of people didn't like it, but it was supposed to be a trash AND gore movie. it's disgusting, there's no "hero" or someone who you should feel sad about it, unless the people who became a centipede...? will, i don't like to spoil everything, but if you enjoy horror movies like Man Bites Dog, Cannibal Holocaust, etc, it's a movie that you'd certainly will enjoy. it's fu#king gruesome and well done. if you're a fan of Scream movies, don't even try it, you'll be very uncomfortable.
As a fan of the first installment and of 'torture porn' movies in general I had quite high hopes for The Human Centipede 3 (Full Sequence). Not a fan of the black and white theme and thought the plot was weak. How does an asthmatic, overweight, mentally challenged short man become in possession of a gun and also be able to smack people round the head with a crowbar (without killing them) managing to tie them up and load them in to the back of a van to ship them off to a warehouse? The movie relies on gore for shock value but this doesn't seem to add to the movie, it just seems wildly unnecessary. Bad acting and unbelievable happenings make this quite unbearable to watch. I definitely thought I would enjoy this more after seeing the first installment. I think the only thing that is worse than this is The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence). Save yourself some time and don't even bother sitting through this. It is so not worth it.
I think we need a discussion about genres since anything dark or disturbing is being labeled as "horror." I remember when horror movies were about being scared. I remember when movies were made in such a way that you would worry about going to sleep at night or the movie forced you to look over your shoulder as you walked down the road because *insert supernatural bad guy* might get you.Now horror is just about the shock value. Even the corniest horror movies have elements of degradation, violation, and repulsiveness which did not exist some twenty years ago.There is something seriously wrong with the world when someone can not only think up this kind of movie, but get money to actually make it. Someone opened their wallet and said "Sure, I'll help finance a movie about sewing people's lips to someone else's anus. How much do you need?" I feel bad for the actors who are obviously looking for work experience, still, it's hard for me to believe that they didn't think twice before selling themselves out like this.It all feels like sado-masochism to the extreme, where people are enjoying violating people and making people feel disgusted in the extreme.
