i will at least give this a 3 since they tried. i mean they made a movie, what did you do?
6:59pm - i received a text message from an old friend: "im watching the human centipede. im really creeped out by the concept of the movie. terrible terrible. u gotta watch it. don't look it up just see it."
after watching it, i drove home at midnight and almost had to pull over cause i thought i was gonna puke. but... i felt the same way after being tricked into seeing 2girls-1cup and other awful images.
i agree that the characters all lack any depth (o hai Japanese guy with playboy tattoo!), but some people seem to be curious about why the doctor does what he does. i didn't get a mad scientist vibe from this character at all, as others do. the first scene of him caressing the picture of his dog/s - obviously some kind of strange fixation. and when our girls ask him, "do you live here with your wife?", he says something like "no... i hate human beings." isn't that reason enough? he sees us as dogs. but again, due to bad writing, we are never sure if he's creating a creature out of passion or if this is just torture for the humans he apparently hates.
the blown up images of siamese twins around his home might offer some insight though. it seems as if his career and skill revolved for years around separating beings to save their lives, now he wishes to put beings together and destroy them instead.
11:47pm - i replied to above text message: "dude, i f*ckin hate you for recommending that movie to me."
