Human Centipede 2 Rejected by BBFC

[ZXSpectrum]

I quite enjoyed the first one and A Serbian Film purely for the shock value.
Obviously the production and acting are terrible, but it's rare for a film these days to genuinely shock and disgust people by the idealism and gore.

Saw is so farfetched it's a bit tame, imo it's been dragged out too far now. I'm not saying THC1/2 is realistic, but it's not as unrealistic as Saw.

Sort of looking forward to watching it with some mates for a good laugh at each others reactions, especially if we can convince a girl to watch it with us

Sorry but after just reading the wiki of "A Serbian Film" Anyone that "Enjoys" scenes depicting rape (Including baby :vomit torture, murder, nercophilia, paedophillia seriously wants their heads looking at..

I wouldn't enjoy it.

but i don't want it banned either.

Fair enough. I'm not sure about banning it, but given the BBFC's remit I fully understand why they have banned it. It's one of those issues where those who are so viscerally concerned with freedom of speech have little of merit to say.

So all those people that watched 2 girls one cup because their mates said it was gross and hilarious, are also abnormal people in your eyes? Have you never seen anything 'extreme'?

Well, coprophilia and coprophagia are obviously abnormal, so partaking of them is obviously abnormal and to watch videos of it is either abnormal or is akin to freakshows of old, as is much of that sort of extreme material.

It's just not a good film at all

Just watched A Serbian Film, it was pretty extreme, more extreme than the other critically acclaimed disturbing films. There were a few scenes which did shock me a bit but overall not as bad as I thought it would be. Although I've got a stomach for these things for some reason.

The scene where the guy is forced to rape that woman then beats her and slices her head off while doing so..did not expect that!

The scene where guy kills the woman by putting his dick in her mouth and squeezing her nose so she suffocates..weird way to kill someone!

The scene where this guy helps this woman give birth then proceeds to basically have sex with the newborn baby, then the mother actually starts to enjoy it, what the hell??? Also the director in the film is screaming "newborn porn".

The scene where he rapes his own wife, then his 5 year old son, then some random guy rapes his wife while he is raping his son (although his wife and child are covered up so he doesn't know it's actually them). Then the violent fighting scene which I found quite funny to be honest..especially the part where he kills that guy but somehow sticking his dick through his eye..what a way to die! lol

The ending was quite sad but made sense, but then the very last scene was a bit messed up but expected I guess!

Definitely one of the most insane films I've seen, who thinks of these films...............what must the director of the film's friends/family think of him for making this "film" lol, crazy world we live in.

Why?

I'm obviously never going to even think about performing any of the scenes out in person, and I didn't enjoy watching a fictional character pretending to do those things.
I (and a few mates who watched it with me) found it funny just how far some people push the boundaries of film making and what can be accepted to publish.

So because I enjoyed having a laugh with some mates at a completely surreal and unrealistic film I need to get my head checked?

That sounds like something somebody that needs to get out more would say tbh.

imo as long as the right audiences are viewing the material (i.e >18 and not a psycho who would actually carry out the acts irl), I don't see a problem with shock/horror/gore films such as these.

So you've not actually answered my question about whether you've ever seen anything you'd class as abnormal.

 

[ZXSpectrum]

Needless to say I don't sit round with my mates watching a film and find it funny that the contents of the film includes rape, paedophilia, sodomy, murder etc done specifically to shock.

Yeah I need to get out more... And watch stuff like this... Grow up for gods sake. I am 38 and do not find rape in any form regardless of context funny or subject matter to be made "entertainment"!

 

[Vonhelmet]

So you've not actually answered my question about whether you've ever seen anything you'd class as abnormal.

What do you want me to say here? That I avoid things that sound disgusting and have little or no artistic merit? I've certainly avoided 2g1c for that reason. Why would I watch something just to be disgusted by it?

I'm mystified by the attitude that it's somehow foolish to avoid things that are manifestly revolting and have no artistic value, as though it's prudish to not want to watch any and every disgusting thing that the human mind can conceive. There also seems to be a rather postmodern attitude thAt every ing has value, and that one can't possibly say that something is worthless and has no value to society, and nothing to teach. Does The Human Centipede have anything of value to add? I doubt it. Does it have artistic merit? I doubt it. Will I watch it when it has nothing to teach me and no artistic value? I vey much doubt it.

This film will almost certainly not get any good reviews beyond those from the torture porn crowd who who merrily watch any old depraved sex and vivisection film and claim it as wonderful.

I just don't get people who like these films. Shock value for shock value's sake. Does smack of little kiddies getting excited because they're watching an 18 film.

most of them are mad at dads and like slipknot

I watched 'A Serbian Film' not knowing how extreme it was going to be and I actually felt physically sick afterwards. I have no wish to watch either of the Human Centipede films but I can see why people would want to see how far the boundary has been pushed.

 

[Weebull]

lol at the 'omg something wrong with you if you watch these films you need to see a Doctor' brigade. You must be very boring, close minded people if you think like that.

Hahaha. Sure, you're really pushing the boundaries of human existence by sitting about at home and watching a shock value horror film. You live that wild life, man.

 

[firstborn]

all this hype I wanna see this baby now...

Do it. Cant understand why people get worked up over this. Me and the other half watched it whilst eating dinner and found it amussing for the most part. GD is far more disturbing tbh.

 

[Zeebedy]

TBH, it isnt that much of a shocker, its a little vulgar at best..

What is? The first or second?

One things for sure, now the second one is banned a lot more people are going to see it.

 

[Rroff]

The only think shocking about these kinda movies is that anyone (a) has any fascination in them (b) finds them shocking... its not like its hard to come up with something "depraved" and "shocking" and then come up with something even more so - anyone with a reason for watching these kinda movies does need their head examined because they are either incredibly childish or are actually depraved.

and to watch videos of it is either abnormal or is akin to freakshows of old.

Killing hookers and shooting cops is abnormal, but you wouldn't think twice about anyone playing GTA.

I wouldn't watch this film (or Serbia, Irreversible and the ilk), but that's not to say I'd judge people who do, I just don't think the films have enough artistic merit for me to watch them. However, films like Tetsuo (mild in comparison, but can still be disturbing) are art shoots, and I enjoy watching them.

In all honesty, I felt hollow simply after watching the Saw films - but I can watch something like Cannibal Holocaust without issue. I guess it's the humanisation and lack of empathy in the aforementioned films that *really* make them disturbing, not the content.

, so partaking of them is obviously abnormal and to watch videos of it is either abnormal or is akin to freakshows of old, as is much of that sort of extreme material.

I like war films but i dont like killing poeple or real wars...

I love american phsyco however i'd not condone dropping a chain saw on someone...

i like aeon flux where she kills soooo many poeple near the end... but I dont condone mass murder...

just because you watch something does not mean you think its good, normal, nice or acceptable
