have just watched Human Centipede
Very mediocre, can't see what the fuss was about. There's really, really nothing to see there. You never see more than you already know from the synopsis; I mean, if you know what it is about you don't even have to watch. Very dumb, pointless, and, worst of all, boring.

Actually Jean, I think it's more of a case that atm there seems very little to talk about when it comes to horror: the Human Centipede seems to be showing at very few cinemas, if it's being shown at all now, and the only other recent horror I can think of is the remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street. Which, for a remake, wasn't too bad. I think the only real problem I had with it wasSpoiler:
Also saw Paranormal Activity on dvd. Fucking hell, now that was a scary film! Wonderfully basic, kept its scares simple, and never went over the top. Fantastic!

Jean! I didn't even see the thread has moved.
Re: The Human Centipede:Here there be spoilers, sort of...

A whole lot more than riches and muscle.

I spent the weekend watching [REC] and [REC]2.
[REC] is the Spanish movie that Quarentine was based off of (the directors of the remake were EXTREMELY true to the original.)
The sequel came out not long ago and I managed to get a copy....OMFG...seriously....
Spoiler:
Woofer: enjoyed your review, agree with everything, only don't understand how you could watch it twice? it's boooooooring.......
(will watch the sequel, though, for the same reasons as the ones you mention)

Oooh! I LOVED [REC]! I saw Quarantine in theaters a few years ago and when I found out it was an American remake of a Spanish film, I looked up the original. LOVED it even more. I found the explanation to what was going on a little more exciting in the Spanish version. I haven't seen the sequel yet, but am looking forward to it. The foreign language sequel is apparently being released (limited, I assume) to US theaters this July! Also, I heard news that a Quarantine sequel is in the works, but it won't be a shot-for-shot remake of [REC]2 -- it's going to have an original storyline that will (from what I've read) take place at an airport. I'm looking forward to both these movies.
Well, the first watch was just absorption. The second was to look more at the cinematography, costuming, locations, etc. without watching the movie per se. The third watch will, again, be for pure "entertainment" but I don't see my initial perceptions changing, e.g., I don't think I'm going to like it as much as I like the idea of it.

My first watching of any movie is purely for entertainment. Subsequent watches are for that other stuff...oh, and when possible furthur entertainment.
LOL! Well of course, but I was planning on writing a review. I don't think it merits much longer than I already wrote, though. I figure that it's worth a shot to see if I can get some freelance writing work reviewing horror again. Deja vu.

Hey All - Has anyone seen a horror film called "May" starring Jeremy Sisto?
