During a stopover in Germany in the middle of a carefree roadtrip through Europe, two American girls find themselves alone at night when their car breaks down in the woods. Searching for help at a nearby villa, they are wooed into the clutches of a deranged retired surgeon who explains his mad scientific vision to his captives’ utter horror. They are to be the subjects of his sick lifetime fantasy: to be the first to connect people, one to the next, via their gastric system, and in doing so bring to life ‘the human centipede’.
Truly one-of-a-kind, Tom Six’s twisted biological horror film THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE confidently goes where few films have dared to go. The sick vision of a demented surgeon, a role portrayed so brilliantly by Dieter Laser, is sure to join Freddy, Jason, and Leatherface in the horror pantheon, and is 100% medically accurate.
“Is this the sickest film ever made?”
The Sun UK
“An arresting and imminently watchable work of jaundiced genius… fearless, adamant, and completely of its own design.”
