If ever there was a film that should never have been made, then this turgid fest of doggy droppings is it.A badly shot, poorly made outing that quite frankly has absolutely nothing going for it in any way shape or form.
The plot, what there is of it consists of disturbed loner Martin who is obsessed by the fictional Dr. Heiter and he sets out creating a 12-person centipede.
In short Martin, a short dwarf security guard and possibly one of the worst actors ever to set his face to screen in the absolute worst follow on film ever. Even the Jaws follow on films look like works of fine art compared to this.
Now the BBFC (UK certification board) initially refused to grant this film a certification, due to violent scenes upon its release. It would have been far better had they done that out of respect for the people who will be bored to death watching this film.
Anyway the BBFC granted the film an 18 certificate after 32 cuts totaling 2 minutes and 37 seconds were made. Far better had they cut the entire film and replaced it with another movie.
As much I abhor censorship in any form, I hear that this was banned in Australia. Australia you don't know how lucky you are in not seeing this film.
It tries to rely on gore over style and content and even then fails to shock.
Avoid. Do your senses a favor, read a good book, go for a walk, if you must suffer a bad film then even Home Alone 2 is a masterpiece of cinema compared to this.
