Even some horror bloggers didn't care for this one. It falls into the torture porn genre, I guess. I personally see it as a mad scientist type movie as the good Dr's purpose was not to torture but to experiment.
If you haven't heard about this movie, the plot is basically that a mad scientist want to join three people mouth to anus to form a human centipede. That is pretty much the entire movie. I guess the torture porn label is kind of apt as the soundtrack is overwhelmed by whimpering, screaming, and sobbing for the most part.
The acting was okay. It was a low budget film, but all most of the actors had to do was scream and cry. Not a lot of depth needed. Dieter was sufficiently creepy. The girls may get some more scream time in other movies as they are attractive and proved that they are capable.
Overall, it wasn't a great movie, but it wasn't as bad as what everyone led me to believe. I wouldn't say I enjoyed the movie, but I didn't not enjoy it either. It was suspenseful and creepy which is what I wanted it to be. I don't know if saw fans will like it as their is no elaborate contraptions or schemes. Not sure about Hostel fans either as it isn't really a torture flick. I would say the best match would be those that like weird Japanese movies.
The second movie is out and I am pretty sure that they upped the weird as it has been banned in the UK.

I'm definitely skipping this one, Bud!
Just about got through it, disturbing but now they've banned the second one I need to see it.
Sorry, still no desire to see it!
the South Park version of this was hilarious, but seeing human actors instead of animated cartoons is a different story.
This is the limit of what I won't see. I don't need too. I know enough about it to be freaked out.
I'm gonna have to give this one a pass. It takes a lot for me to be grossed out, but this just might do it.
Curiosity might have killed the cat, but mine made me lose about 90 minutes of mine. I was working at DISH one day a few weeks ago and a friend told me about the movie. I had never heard about it, like I was in this bubble of never hearing about bad horror movies. So that weekend I was searching on dish online for something to watch and found it on IFC's page. I did what I know I shouldn't have done and hit the play button. I will admit Dieter was a spot on mad scientist, he definitely had the I used to work in a concentration camp face about him. I did fall out of my chair laughing when he was screaming FEED HER! It was a train wreck movie, you don't want to see it but you can't stop looking at it. I did the same thing with the second movie as well, because it was banned I had to know. Now I wish I could have that 3 hours of my life back.
