The Human Centipede (First Sequence) (2009) - Tom Six


This is the most disgusting movie I have ever seen. When I watched Hostel in the theater I actually dry heaved during one of the scenes, but while watching this movie I was dry heaving almost the entire time. Tom Six has successfully directed a film that will easily find a place in the "Gross-Out" category of horror film making. This movie is right up there with movies like Cannibal Holocaust and Salo: 120 Days of Sodom.

So you have a doctor who wants to create a Human Centipede. To accomplish this task first he collects three victims and then preforms ass to mouth surgery joining them all together. If you haven't seen the movie I just want you to go ahead and picture what that would look like. It is disgusting and it doesn't seem like it would work but Tom Six assures everyone that the movie is 100% medically accurate.


The movie doesn't really have any "Gory" scenes, it is all pretty much just left up to your mind. One scene that really makes me gag is when the Human Centipede is being taken for a walk outside and the head person of the creature has to... ahem... do his business. Well again, just think of how something like that would have to go down.


If you could somehow get past how disgusting this movie is then you would find a really well written story. The film is very well made and it serves as a great wake-up call to the horror movie makers of today. Enough with the family friendly horror already; lets get back to the anything goes era of horror. Watch at your own risk.

Go on, swallow it!
  • The film will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray today October 4th, 2010
  • The film received several top honors at different awards like the
    LA Screamfest, Fantastic Fest, and the South African Film Festival
  • There is a porno remake of the film entitled The Human Sexipede

Ju-On (2000) - Takashi Shimizu

Watching Japanese horror is similar to watching British comedy. If you enjoy dry whit then you probably enjoy the boys of Monty Python in drag. That's the joke, they're dressed like women. Get it? Well, that's British humor. But if you're like most Americans you probably prefer Adam Sandler farting his way across a football field and hooking up with chicks that are way out of his league. Americans usually prefer this more in your face, crass brand of humor. My point is funny in England is different from funny in the US. The same goes for J-Horror. What the Japanese consider scary is very different from what Americans consider scary and it shows in this horror film. Japanese horror is generally slow (a little too slow sometimes), suspenseful and creepy. Ju-On is a creepy effing film. The movie has almost no soundtrack. It is incredibly suspenseful and the pay-offs are pretty awesome, but I think that it was done better in the American version (cultural t...

Le Diable au Convent (1899) - George Melies

Le Diable au Convent is longer than the two previous Georges Méliès ventures into short form horror. This particular French short shows the Devil himself running a convent and terrorizing the poor old nuns that live there. However he is finally vanquished by the good of Faith. This is yet another Méliès classic, showcasing the art work that really goes into his short film-making. This is one of the earliest examples of a horror movie that could rely on its elaborate set design and artistic design. Everything in this film, although horribly aged, has been packaged extremely well. If you are a fan of production and set design then I would highly recommend just about anything that Melies has his name on. Though nothing that is considered too extreme actually happens, Satan does have his way with a convent. The satanic imagery itself must have kept this film on the traveling carnival circuit. It certainly wouldn’t fit into the good moral bag that society shoved i...

Spookies (1986) - Genie Joseph, Thomas Doran, and Brendan Faulkner

It's impossible to get a decent movie when you take two films and just squash them together. That is essentially the story of how this movie came together. The film started as Twisted Souls. However, according to the financial backer they didn't have enough horror. So they ended up hiring another guy to come in and add a monster in virtually every scene.  This movie started out being directed by Brendan Faulkner and Thomas Doran. It basically is the tale of two sets of teenagers that arrive to a strange building surrounded by a strange cemetery. It was your usual tale of teenagers in a big hows with a few monsters. Then they brought in Genie Joseph and added even more. Like a haunted birthday party, a murderous cat-man, zombies, and an old wizard. It really became a smorgasbord of horror with a very thin plot-line leading it around. This movie is hard to summarize in a conventional way. It just packs so much.  The most interesting part of this movie are ...
