So there's this movie called the Human Centipede about a nutty evil doctor who does some awful things to three people, and it was made fun of by South Park.
Now, I have not seen this movie, or the sequel. I have read about it and it takes up space in my head way more than I would like. The concept horrifies me yet I have trouble not pondering just how awful the movie could be. It's bugging the crap out of me. I am hoping that this blog post will help clear it out.
I am taking a cinema history class in college right now and I spend a lot of time reading Rodger Ebert reviews and essays on classics like the Bicycle Thieves and Citizen Kane (oh so Rosebud was his.... I am not that big of a jerk). And I thought to myself, humm, I wonder what Ebert says about the film(s). So I read.
THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE (UNRATED) & THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE 2 (FULL SEQUENCE) (UNRATED)
These two reviews are wonderfully written and gave me a much needed clearing out. His reviews not only give me something to chuckle about, but also seemed to give me the OK to understand that these movies are garbage and unwarranted of my time. Why did it take these reviews to do it, I have no freaking clue.
Oh yes, and in case you are wondering why I didn't link up the movie in any way other than the Ebert links, cause its trash and doesn't need any more links raising it's search engine hit rates.
Thanks for reading,
E
