![]() ![]() As with the previous two films, the only thing moving the narrative is the inevitable, impending centipede. When right-hand man Dwight (Harvey with a Hitler moustache) lends Boss the first two Human Centipede movies, a solution to their problems becomes apparent.Īnd that's that, where plot is concerned. The setting this time is a giant state prison, Laser playing the part of sadistic warden Bill Boss, forever seeking new and interesting ways of visiting cruel and unusual punishment upon his prisoners. While there's plenty here to offend and upset, it's more concerned with its interplay between Dieter Laser and Laurence R. That, by the way, is not necessarily a bad thing. ![]() Those expecting something akin to the previous film's notoriously controversial scenes of gore and violence may be disappointed – it's surprisingly tame, lacking anything that might match Full Sequence's sandpaper masturbation or newborn-squishing-car-escape sequences. So while the first film was a tongue-in-cheek mad scientist body horror movie, the second a black-and-white arthouse torture flick, for his Final Sequence, Six goes for balls-to-the-wall (almost literally at one point) black comedy. Where most horror franchises quickly settle into a dull routine of rinsing and repeating the first movie's previous antics over and over again, The Human Centipede's Stetson-wearing horror madman can barely bring himself to stick with one subgenre, let alone story. One can't help but admire Human Centipede creator and director Tom Six. ![]()
