Still with us? Here we go. Don't say we didn't warn you.
 
'''''The Human Centipede: First Sequence''''' is a 2010 Dutch [[Horror]] film made by Tom Six that's about... well, [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|read the title]].
 
Two young American tourists, Lindsay and Jenny, are traveling through Germany when they [[My Car Hates Me|get a flat tire]]. They stop for help at the house of [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|Dr. Josef]] [[Herr Doctor|Heiter]] ([[Awesome McCoolname|Dieter Laser]]), a surgeon who specializes in separating conjoined twins. However, Heiter is [[Mad Doctor|a man with a vision]]. We're going to let you get a cold drink and a comfy seat before we share [[Body Horror|his vision]] with you. If you're the drinking type, make the drink a [[I Need a Freaking Drink|stiff one]].
Line 29:
It appears the folks at Six Entertainment have been reading ''[[Franken Fran]]'', especially chapter two. And apparently, Six has plans for a third movie... though it seems that, given reports of [http://www.joblo.com/horror-movies/news/the-human-centipede-is-falling-apart-tom-six-suing-actor-dieter-laser a falling out] between him and actor Dieter Laser (who was to reprise his role as Dr. Heiter), it may not get off the ground.
 
Somehow spawned a [[Lighter and Softer|light-hearted]] porn parody called [[Parallel Porn Title|The Human Sexipede]], as well as inspiring the Season 15 premiere of ''[[South Park (Animation)|South Park]]'', "HUMANCENTiPAD". A [[Screen to Stage Adaptation]], ''[[Human Centipede the Musical (Web Video)|Human Centipede the Musical]]'', was created as well.
 
Not to be confused with ''[[Ciem Webcomic Series|Ciem: The Human Centipede]]''.
Line 53:
* [[Broke the Rating Scale]]: [[Roger Ebert]] ''[http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100505/REVIEWS/100509982 refused]'' to give this film a rating. To be fair, he has done so in the past, for films such as this an ''[[Pink Flamingos]]'', where rating a movie would be pointless, as a director or prospective viewers couldn't possibly care about it.
** On the other hand, he gave the sequel zero stars, because it was "reprehensible, dismaying, ugly, artless and an affront to any notion, however remote, of human decency."
* [[Crack Fic]]: ''[[The Huemn Ceniped 2 The Humen Milipede (Fanfic)|The Huemn Ceniped 2 The Humen Milipede]]''. Perhaps the author went insane after watching the film.
* [[Creepy Centipedes]]: Not the literal one but close enough....
** Played straight with Martin's pet centipede in the sequel.
Line 92:
* [[Large Ham]]: Dieter Laser is [[Chewing the Scenery|clearly having a lot of fun]].
{{quote| YOU WANT BITE? YOU CAN BITE ZIS! (whilst gesturing to brand new combat boots)}}
** ''[[Putting Onon the Reich|Jack-boots]]'' to be precise.
* [[Left Hanging]]: Considering that there should have been some police backup the very same day (since two cops didn't report back from Creepy Guy's home), it's odd that there's no mention of Lindsay's fate.
* [[Mad Doctor]]: Heiter. IN SPADES. Well, he ''is'' named [[Meaningful Name|Josef]]...
Line 119:
* [[Tears of Joy]]: Heiter, {{spoiler|once... oh dear god... once it's complete}}.
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: Jenny & Lindsay, rather than staying on the road like any rational human being, decide to walk into the woods (at night) in the middle of nowhere Germany.
** In his review, [[The Cinema Snob (Web Video)|The Cinema Snob]] points out that given how [[Obviously Evil]] Heiter was, it was incredibly stupid of the women to accept drinks from an open container from him.
** Or just driving on the flat tire since the car still ran. If they were smart, they would have paid for the insurance; so they could total it if they had to.
* [[Torture Porn]]
