Braintree Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 This movie would probably just depress me. I'll avoid it. Why's that? Well it's pretty much entirely bleak with absolutely nothing lifting or tension-relieving about it. So unless you can just laugh at how horrible the situation is, it would be a depressing movie to watch. Sick for the sake of sick, no doubt about it.

Guest ansgaria Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 The Roskilde festival had a cinema on the camping area as well, and a mate read the plot behind the movie aloud, some just shook their heads in disgust whilst some of us grabbed a pen and circled the fuck out of the title - none of us got to see it though, just bad timing.

Zephyr_Nova Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 *shrug* It seemed true for half the people present at the viewing, and I imagine Braintree might be of similar disposition. On the one hand it's funny because of how over the top sick it is, but on the other hand it's not always easy for people to view it that way.

TechDiff Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Meh rubbish film The guy playing the doctor is the highlight of the film. He does the creepy mad scientist thing well, although there was nothing particularly unique about his approach to it. The story line is weak as piss, all you need to know is what the concept of the human centipede is, and the rest just plays out from there. Most plot development is done within the first 30-40 mins and nothing really to go from after that, aside from the inevitable and very predictable ending. Its not gross by any stretch, there is very minimal gore. The only shocking thing is the concept of a human centipede, but that in itself is so childish and stupid that its really not so affective, just laughable. 1 thing I though fitting, was that the 2 girls are such bad actors, its quite appropriate that they are rewarded with a face full of anus and the inability to speak. To be honest, I laughed all the way through, its just too rediculous for words. Admitedly Im probably quite desensitized because i've always liked pretty shocking films. But this is just dumb, really dumb. Someone earlier mentioned Audition as a comparison, which is sells audition very short. That film is on another level entirely. A million times better.

I take it you just skimmed and didn't pay much mind to the content of my post. Anyway, most of the rest of what you said was on point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneaksta303 Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Well, I'm an odd one sometimes. I'm not a person that doesn't get affected by films. I DO get emotionally affected, and sometimes very strongly. I never found myself too terribly disgusted or disturbed with this one in particular, because quite frankly, the idea is ridiculously over the top and unrealistic. That being said, despite the total implausibility of it all, it was realistic enough to not be all that cheesy. The acting was decent to above average, with the doctor being pretty damn good. There were some genuine laughs too, and what I mean by that is comedic moments, to lighten it up a bit. The film doesn't take itself too seriously. Sure, it was gross, but wtf, look at the concept. What would one expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sneaksta303 Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 i was just starting to get it out of my mind george. it sure as shit ruined the 1st part of my day. Thank you for reminding how close I was to flying the fuck out to LA last night and turning George cock licking Lucas, Steven semen swallowing Spielberg, and that little cunt Shia LaBeouf into a human centipede.

Guest abusivegeorge Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Fucking lol, I'm sorry, when you said this "Well, I'm an odd one sometimes. I'm not a person that doesn't get affected by films. I DO get emotionally affected, and sometimes very strongly." My immediate thought was one of Indiana, I honestly didn't realise it had affected you that much. Sorry dude.

sneaksta303 Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I was being over dramatic sir. What I meant about the emotionally affecting was more like "WHEN" I'm watching it. But yes, the Indy movie did that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would one expect? Okay, I'm not going to disagree with any of that. And yeah, the concept is pretty much what makes it gross, not because of anything graphic. That's what I meant in the first place. I guess for me most of the comedic moments were kind of incidental, as opposed to being deliberate (maybe aside from the obnoxiousness of the two main chicks which just kind of irritated me rather than made me laugh). I think the director actually did take the concept pretty seriously, as ridiculous as that sounds. I mean, he derived the concept from the punchline of a joke he had, but I think he genuinely wanted to do that concept justice in every way he could without a hell of a lot of irony intended. He's a pretty strange guy (well, obviously...). I'm not sure that I like or hate that this movie's becoming kind of important culturally. It's totally stupid in every way, but it's so reflective of where we're heading with entertainment right now that it's sparking thousands of debates just like this one. That says a lot, for better or worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That says a lot, for better or worse. Aye, but that's the nature of art in general. I don't know where you're coming from regarding it becoming important culturally. That would imply some sort of popularity, and I don't really see that happening outside of a small undergroundish community. If it does happen to break out into the mainstream, I will lol, simply because of how many people it would piss right off. In before "this isn't art" or some similar bs.

Zephyr_Nova Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 should a person whose favorite horror movie is The Shining and enjoyed the trailer of this movie, watch the whole thing? Well, as mentioned earlier it's definitely not a must see movie, so I wouldn't say anyone should see this movie. But you might get a kick out of it. It's a pretty polarizing film. Maybe watch the first 20 minutes and make your decision to watch the whole thing based off that (I think by that point it should be pretty clear).

It has some sort of popularity without a doubt. In fact, it's probably the movie I've heard talked about more than any other on the interwebs in the last 6 months. And considering the popularity of the interwebs I reckon that's pretty popular as a cultural phenomenon. It's a cult movie, yes, but a lot of those end up being pretty important culturally, and I think sad as it may be, this is going to end up being one of those 10 years down the road. It's just about there already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nene multiple assgasms Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 daniel tosh made a reference to this movie on tosh.0. but then, I'm not sure if that means it's well known or not. people in the studio audience laughed at the joke, though.
