The Human Centipede

        I just got done watching a little Dutch horror movie called The Human Centipede. I don't know weather to thank or to condemn Netflix for having this available but non the less I watched it. I'm going to preface this by reminding you that I watch roughly 100 movies a year so I'm a little more jaded than most when it comes to fine cinema, I also have a really awful sense of humor which lends itself to finding comedy even in the most horrific of movies. I think that everyone should see one bad movie a year and this would be my recommendation for that movie simply because if you can't get a few chuckles it will allow you to look in the mirror and feel better about yourself.

       I don't know what it is about crazy German doctors/scientists that make me laugh like a 6 year old watching Americas funniest home videos, but he could have been the saving grace of the movie. The Human Centipede is based in Germany as a couple of American tourists are capture by a crazy doctor after blowing a tire as they drive around the backwoods looking for a party.  After bumbling through the woods for "an hour" (which thankfully only took 2 minutes in our time) this pair of American female tourists, who never saw an acting class and said hmm let me enroll in that, find them selves on the outskirts of crazy German guy's backyard. Cue creepy downpour, streaking mascara and thankfully we enter the lair of the demon doctor.

 and let the hilarity begin...................

      After a pleasantly amusing exchange between the doctor and the ladies we get a  fained escape attempt and the doc revealing his evil plan. When the surgery to create his new pet is complete we finally get a break from the true horror of this movie, the female acting. For the rest of the movie they are relegated to crying, moaning, and whining but thankfully no talking. And that of course gives us more of the doctor's one liners.

      It's a fun little bad movie, but keep in mind your not getting in to this movie to watch good acting, good story telling or good looking people.
