I saw human centipede and I think other people ruined it for me. I found the movie kind of funny since I wasn't blown away by the actual centipede and was focused on the Dr. and his crazy acting and some of the major plot holes that made no sense. If I saw it before the hyped I would have been greatly disturbed but after a year of everyone saying it was disgusting it wasn't to me.
Now I remember seeing this movie Guinea Pig: Flowers of Flesh in Blood that was pretty much a women being cut up by this sexual predator who gets off manhunt style by tearing her body up literally. To be relevant 20 years ago Charlie Sheen thought it was a snuff film and called the authorities on the film makers. If Charlie Sheen thinks its fucked up its gotta be.
Top 5 Disturbing Movies of All Time
" @HandsomeDead said:You guys seen Enter the Void yet?Thanks HandsomeDead. I was going to defend Noe at first but then I just decided to ignore Pinworm45's bullshit comment about the directing and acting. "" @Pinworm45 said:
" As soon as I read the title, I fucking knew someone was going to say Irreversable.Saying Gaspar Noe has 'amateurish' camera control is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard. His material is often incredibly simple but his direction is perfect for a large majority of that movie. Similarly, the screenplay was only two pages long so it is near all improv but when it's Vincent Cassel, Albert Dupontel and Monica Bellucci, three of the world's finest actors, it works perfectly. The guy who was La Tenia may not be a professional actor but that scene is still incredibly visceral and, again, saying that the camera being locked down somehow makes it bad continues to imply that you didn't get it at all, no matter if you put it in caps or not. "
What an overrated piece of shit. Not just the movie (seriously, the first 30 minutes is so mind bogglingly badly filmed, I don't even understand how anyone can define it as 'intent'. I GET what they were going for, but it didn't work at all because the camera control was so amateurish.), but the rape scene.
I know how this sounds, but.. worst.. rape.. scene.. ever. It was terrible. There was nothing raw or gritty about it, and when you're going for a rape scene, it HAS to be raw or gritty because rape is the very definition of raw and gritty. But it was just terrible. Random ass camera location that never moves (it being one take would work good, but again, it was so amateurishly and badly handled). Completely terrible dialogue (I was laughing at the shit the guy was saying. It was far closer to terrible amateur porn with some guy trying to copy lines he heard a porn star saying, than someone commiting a violent and vicious assault). Terrible acting from both parts. Just completely and utterly horribly filmed and directed. Utter incompetence. Still boggles my mind how anyone can defend that movie. The only thing I can think of is that seeing rape at ALL was shocking to some people so they defend the terribleness as intended. But no, it's just terrible all around. "
Finally gets a release here in the UK next month. Very much looking forward to finally seeing it.
" @rudeboy217 said:Yeah, I got to see it a few months ago and it's very good, if overlong. It's a really simple film, like Irreversible, but doesn't have the same punch so a lot of times, you feel like you're waiting for the next thing to happen but it's a real one off experience. Just look at the opening credits:" @HandsomeDead said:You guys seen Enter the Void yet? Finally gets a release here in the UK next month. Very much looking forward to finally seeing it.

And, for the record, it's not a date movie; no matter how indie your date is.
" @HandsomeDead: I got to watch it in a theatre. It was pretty crazy on the big screen. "I know, right. One of the few actually cinematic movies I've seen this year.
