Throwback Thursday: Human Centipede 2009
When I saw this prompt, many movies kept coming to mind. I honestly had to scan through lots of movies before I finally found the perfect one.
The movie was perfect not because I liked it but because it left a scar on my young mind when I watched it. I started watching horror movies when I was about six years old and this was one of my firsts.
Like I said, this movie left me awfully disgusted and excruciatingly scarred. The title of the movie is "Human Centipede", released 2009. The title tells a lot about the movie already.
The movie is about a doctor's morbid fantasy of which he wanted to make a reality. Unfortunately, two girls who got lost fell prey to his ridiculous project.
He made them a centipede by connecting one person's mouth to the next person's anus. I can vividly remember that at some point, he gave them a meal that would upset their stomach so as one person was purging, the rest of the people that were connected to him were gulping the excreta. It wasn't funny at all.
Personally, I think that scientist was a psychopath. Why would he even think of doing something like that to human beings?
The movie was starred by actors like
Dr. Heiter as Dieter Laser
Lindsay as Ashley Williams
Jenny as Ashlynn Yennie
Katsuro as Akihiro Kitamuta.
I remember my brother's telling me that "they'd call Dr. Heiter to come and get me if I misbehaved" that sentence alone was enough to keep me in good conduct for a whole week.
Weeks passed, months passed and even years passed but this movie didn't want to get erased from my memory. Luckily, I'm not someone who dreams about horror movies when I see them. I didn't have any nightmares but the scenes from the movies were still fresh.
Just making a review of the movie brings back so many thoughts and scenes from the movie. Totally disturbing 😅🤧
Here's a link to the trailer of the first part.
The second part was a spin off of the first part and it was more gruesome. Dr. Heiter had another psychopathic descendant who made up his mind to make a centipede. Dr. Heiter used only three humans but Martin, the descendant, made a 12-person centipede. The more the humans used, the more the pain. Every scene of the movie kept getting worse. The more you watched, the more disgusted you got but there was no going back once you started.
I would never recommend this movie for anyone as the gruesomeness was over the bar. But if you feel that you're in the right state of mind to see something disgusting, then you should check the movie out.
With love, wongi ✨
