Tom Six's trilogy of Human Centipede movies most certainly aren't for everyone.

Regardless of your thoughts on these films, there's no doubting that the concept of The Human Centipede is one laced in body modification. After all, you've literally got people who have their mouths surgically attached to other people's backsides to create a living human centipede.

It's grim, it's depressing, it's twisted, yet there's an audience out there who absolutely lap The Human Centipede up in a way akin to one of the poor victims of the original movie and its two follow-ups. In fact you could clearly make a comparison to the viewing experience of The Human Centipede being much like the franchise's central plot - as in, you're being fed absolute sh*t!

Being honest, The Human Centipede often tends to lean a little more towards shock tactics rather than focusing on having an actually intriguing plot at its core. But then you're always going to generate the reaction of shock once you decide to base your film around ass-to-mouth.

One thing guaranteed about The Human Centipede, however, is that it will 100% make you squirm.
