I never write reviews on IMDb but after seeing this film last night I was compelled to. First off I am a lover of films that push boundaries and appreciate titles such as a Serbian film, martyrs, irreversible, etc. This movie has absolutely no plot except for the obvious: a mentally disturbed man is obsessed with the first film and decides to make his own human centipede. The movie essentially consists of him capturing/killing people, creating a sloppy human centipede, and then killing them all after he is satisfied that the 12 person digestive track works. I enjoy the sensation of being genuinely disturbed by a film or laughing at over-the-top gore but this movie didn't really fulfill either. I attribute this mainly to the pointlessness of the movie in itself, but also just the general look and feel of the movie was not to my taste. There is nothing original or ground breaking about this movie, I feel like there wasn't even any thought put into it except with the goal to disgust people. The first film had an original idea, was executed well, and stayed true to the horror genre. None of these things can be said about the sequel. The only satisfaction I got out of the movie was laughing at how ridiculous it was.

It's not often that you get the original film featured as part of the sequel, i.e. the film within the sequel to the film, but this is what happened with this one to the very controversial original, and I heard that this one was much worse (taste wise), it sounded worth watching, from director Tom Six, who apparently worked on the Dutch version of Big Brother, where it first began. Basically Martin Lomax (Laurence R. Harvey) is a mentally disturbed lonely weirdo who lives with his Mother (Vivien Bridson), he loves and is obsessed by the cult horror film The Human Centipede (First Sequence). Martin works as a security guard during the night shift in a grim underground parking complex, to escape his dreary and almost worthless existence he watches the film with delight, he even masturbates to it, and also has his own pet centipede. Martin fetishes to have the same surgical skill as the film's leading antagonist Dr. Josef Heiter (Dieter Laser), with his knowledge for the human gastrointestinal system, of course Martin has no surgical knowledge whatsoever. But his obsession for the film has become increasingly extreme, to the point where he dreams of making his own Human Centipede, but not with three people like what he has seen, but with more. Martin's mother sees this obsession, in anger she rips up his scrapbook full of photos and articles about the film, in retaliation Martin smashes her skull in until dead, he puts the corpse in a chair and props it up at the dinner table. So Martin starts finding and kidnapping random people to start the process of his sick dream, stripping them all of their clothing, tying them up and gagging them with duct tape, he hopes to create "the full sequence" of twelve people. Martin even manages to get his hands on one of the actors who became part of the film Centipede, the leading actress Ashlynn Yennie, after pretending to be Quentin Tarantino's casting agent, she is to become his head of his creation. In an abandoned warehouse, Martin begins his building of his own Human Centipede, but instead of using surgical tools and medical expertise, he is having to rely on more duct tape, dodgy DIY tool skills and hideous mutilation, like knocking teeth out with a hammer. One of the twelve victims dies in agony, and the other, a pregnant woman, seems to be dead but is actually unconscious, so Martin has to settle with ten people taped together with their mouths stapled to the previous person's anus, and the leg tendons cut to stop them getting away. Of course part of the process of having the victims connected is having the head eat, passing excrement through from person to person, but to speed this process he gives each victim a sip of laxative, causing them each to have their bowels explode. After seeing a victim or two die from choking on excrement or their own vomit, the pregnant woman wakes up and runs out of the warehouse to the nearest car, in the process of escaping she gives birth to her child, but it dies when she crushes it's skull, she drives away. Martin is extremely angry, and the Human Centipede have managed to split in half, but the psychopath takes a gun and shoots each victim in the head, until Miss Yennie is the last left alive. But she manages to grab hold of the funnel Martin used to force feed her, she shoves it up his anus and throws his pet centipede down it, and he is screaming in agony. The film ends however with Martin waking up while watching his favourite film, leaving you to question whether the events seen were real, just his imagination, or him dreaming. Also starring Bill Hutchens as Dr. Sebring, Maddi Black as Candy, Kandace Caine as Karrie, Dominic Borrelli as Paul, Lucas Hansen as Ian, Lee Nicholas Harris as Dick, Dan Burman as Greg, Daniel Jude Gennis as Tim, Georgia Goodrick as Valerie, Emma Lock as Kim, Katherine Templar as Rachel and Peter Blankenstein as Alan. Harvey gives a most exceptional performance as the non- speaking obese severely disgusting character with the sick fantasy to create something he has seen in his treasured film, it almost mirrors concerns parents have about life imitating fiction. This sequel is certainly much more violent than the first film, so much so that it was banned entirely by the BBFC (British Board of Film Classifiction), who refused to touch it, as it was "revolting", but eventually it was released as an 18 certificate with thirty two compulsory cuts totalling two minutes and thirty seven seconds. From what I have read, this material is very extreme and was right to be taken out, including Martin masturbating with sandpaper around his penis, and Martin with barbed wire wrapped around his penis violently raping a woman, you could almost tell where these moments were meant to happen, from what was left in, it is still a highly violent, and a most interesting to watch horror. Good!
