Likely, you’re not ready. I witnessed The Human Centipede last week at a critic’s screening and was amused to see many folks in the audiences making disgusted sounds, turning their heads any which way in order to miss what was happening on screen. But they always looked back…
The film is of course about a mad German surgeon named Dr. Josef Heiter who happens upon a duo of pretty American girls whose car broke down nearby. Dr. Heiter realizes that they might be the key to his next experiment. See, the good doc’s an internationally-respected surgeon, known for his work splitting Siamese twins, but now he wants to do the exact opposite and create his own monstrosities. He’s performed his experiment and managed to link dogs before but now human test subjects have fallen into his lap…
IFC has picked up The Human Centipede for release and just sent us this first poster, which I’m glad kept the “100% Medically Accurate” tagline.
Now you should head over to Arrow in the Head, where they’re exclusively debuted some concept art from the film. The good doctor actually shows some of this to his patients as he demonstrates his plans in one of the more twisted scenes in the film. It’s surprisingly not quite as disgusting as you might think but it’s got
tension up the wazoo- really a treat for horror fans.

this looks like it could be awesome. I wonder if they'll sanitize the hell out of it for theaters….
Tagline is using Lord of the Rings font
=P
I really could have lived my entire life without knowing of this movie's existence and been totally happy.
I'm with Jim, it makes me upset this movie exists. I'd hate to have to talk a friend out of seeing it. I'd hate to see the trailer pop up before a movie. Fuck this one.
april fools joke?
#5 – we wish. Read about it a long time ago here when some CHUD writer posted a review from some festival. The people who can create something like this should be removed from society.
Can't wait!
Jim, Duffy, sjs, take your vaginas elsewhere please.
"It's surprisingly not quite as disgusting as you might think but it's got tension up the wazoo…"
Nice choice of words.
I have to say that, even as a die-hard horror fan, i'm not sure if I could stomach this film.
That said, what sjs just posted is infinitely more disgusting than anything that this film could do.
Obviously, you should also be removed from society. As should capcha.
christ I thought this movie would just go away, I remeber learning of this a few months ago and it actually made a little nauseous reading the synopsis. I can't believe this got picked up.
WTF is wrong with that part of the world that it continues to churn out this shit?
When i first heard about this film i must admit i was curious. But after watching the trailer and seeing how he 'joined' the people….i was no longer curious but grossed out bigtime.
Its a movie dude; get over it. Its not real. SO GET OVER IT.
guys, the plt of this movie was made by the director or producer making a joke about pediphiles or sme shit suffering by being connected to a fat truckers anus, thats how the concept arose, not a lie , and it is medically accurate.
