Here’s what Rodney Perkins had to say on the official FF write-up…
The doctor concludes the initial phase of his experiment by splicing together the two girls and the Japanese man. At this stage, the film really goes berserk as Dr. Heiter attempts to impose his personal brand of order and discipline on an increasingly out-of-control situation. …HUMAN CENTIPEDE (FIRST SEQUENCE) delivers exactly what it promises, and then some.
Interestingly, /Film’s Brendon saw the film across the pond at FrightFest, and humorously parlayed his “why is this ‘sick’?” reaction…
Well, I would define the ass-to-ass scene in Requiem for a Dream as ‘sick,’ Brendon, no matter how well-executed, so when it comes to a “ass-to-mouth” caterpillar chain-gang, I feel the word is just as apt here. The film was written and directed by Tom Six, a native and resident of Holland, who previously directed the foreign films Gay and Honeyz, neither of which I have seen. In the interview below, Six says that he took inspiration for the disturbing experiment-premise from similar documented acts involving twins during the Holocaust.
Much of the foyer conversation around this film revolved around how ‘sick’ it was, or how ‘dark’. I heard a lot of claims that it was the most ‘fucked up’ film in the festival. Okay… I didn’t see it that way and I’m sure you’ll judge me how you will.
American actress, Ashlynn Yennie, smiles and describes being a part of the caterpillar with: “It was a little uncomfortable. …I think the most uncomfortable part was being down on all fours with your mouth, with your mouth…your jaw hurts mostly, because your mouth was open on a bit. But it wasn’t that bad, I’ll be honest. It wasn’t that bad to be on all fours [laughs].” I like her. She goes on to describe her family’s reaction as, “Whoa, that’s totally different from what we thought.”
Some highlights from Twitter…
