Chicago – With this sequel to his 2009 cult hit, filmmaker Tom Six appears to have finally mistaken stomach-churning exploitation for nightmare-inducing terror. No quality scares could possibly be produced by this hollow enterprise, only nauseated groans. The first flick was diverting B-movie schlock. This is just a tedious and obnoxiously tasteless retread.
The action opens on a dangerously disturbed security guard, Martin (played by newcomer Laurence R. Harvey), who spends most of the workday whacking innocent bystanders over the head with a crowbar, while somehow never managing to kill them. His love of the original “Human Centipede” has led him to stitch together his own multi-human digestive system comprised of no less than twelve victims. Yet Martin’s utter lack of scientific prowess has resulted in his use of unsophisticated tools, such as a staple gun.
Blu-ray Rating: 2.0/5.0
Harvey’s profoundly creepy face is by far the best thing in the picture.
