Human Centipede

I never imagined I would be writing a review for this movie. *SPOILER ALERT*(if you don't already know) - This is the story about a demented scientist who wants to create human centipede.

It was really a torture to watch the whole film but I managed to finish it, just because I kind of dared myself.

Despite the horrid visuals the film is shot pretty good. Whole filming is done digitally, in one major location, which is a big house. I will talk about the production design in a second but one logic escapes my mind, how they end up spending 1.5 Million Euros(courtsey IMDB) on a film like this?

I mean as far as production design is concerned, it was great, well suited for the film's mood. The paintings on the wall, the hidden operation room in the cellar, was very clever, but 1.5 Mil not convinced.

Practical effects and makeup was also dead on, but doesn't justify the cost.

Acting was pretty decent, by all the actors. The pain and suffering was so real that it was making me hard to watch it, hence I call this experience a travesty.

As per box office mojo it made on 181,467 USD.

I think this movie just fits perfectly in the horror genre, However, I think the filmmaker took this movie to the next level. Which ofcourse a filmmaker should do, I will commend him for that, in the case of Human Centipede it just did not work out. I mean when people hear how Dr Heiter( the demented scientist) creates the human centipede, it gross them out and they choose not to watch it.

Now lets talk about story, till the time he was working on the Human centipede it was kind of interesting but once the human centipede is created, story just halts , nothing happens, looks like the writer thought how we end it? how about sending some cops and then Dr Heiter should screwup.BINGO! In my opinion it was the easy way out.

Do I regret watching it, I would say no because it made me realize how much gore and atrocities I can handle on TV. But I plan not to see the sequel.

The Question...

It's time to "pop" the big questions and Paul[Nathan Doughty] (being a bit of a worry-wart) is concerned that he might just screw up the most important moment of his (and his girlfriend Michelle's[Heather Shaw] life). Just as he gets ready to go, he realizes that he has misplaced the ring, or did he?

This is a 2 minute short film we made for a movie making contest called "Monthly Movie Madness" conducted by Emerging Artist Productions.

Most people live their lives as per the norms....trying to fit in one picture...is it sad ?

Snow: A short story

He was walking back from work after a long and bad day. He was thinking what had happened wrong. This day started with the usual stuff till his wife called him at work.
"Yeah Eleanor," he continued," What happened?"
" I cannot do this any more."
" What you are talking about?"
" We are done CJ."
"What? Everything was fine in the morning what happened?"
" I am having an affair with Glen"
"So, you called me to tell me on phone that you are sleeping with my best friend and now you are leaving me," asked CJ furiously.
"Yeah, sorry but I cannot do this any more," she hung up.
CJ was still in shock about his wife's infidelity and his boss asked him come to his office.
CJ opened the door," You wanted to see me Don?"
" Yeah CJ, can you come inside and be sure to lock the door."
CJ locked the door and took his seat.
" So, what's up?" asked CJ.
"Why are you looking like crap?" asked Don.
" Nothing just something happened in my family. See, I am not in mood for chit chat now. Can we jump on the business right away Don?"
"Yeah, sure. Actually you know the Glenard's account?"
"Are you kidding me? That guy is a D%^&k."
"Yeah, I know and they are suing us, however, they will not sue us only in one condition."
"And that is ?" asked CJ.
" Management has decided to let you go."
" What? Why?"
" They don't want to pay millions of dollars in a court case in this kind of economy. So, I have to ask you to clean the space. Sorry!"
CJ was deeply disappointed. Everything has to happen before holidays. He had plans for Christmas. He was sad. He parked his car and started walking back to his home. And suddenly he felt something very cold on his nose. He looked up and he saw snow flakes all over the sky. They started showering on him. This was the first snowfall of the season. He chuckled with delight as he noticed it, he forgot all the bad things happened to him and started enjoying the snow. Then he realized the importance of living in the moment.
