My quick rating - 4,1/10. Don't listen to any nonsense about how violent/gore-filled this is. It just isn't. The movie leads itself to be a sequel within a new movie premise taken a step further from how part 2 was to 1. Kudos to Tom Six for making sequels that don't follow the traditional role, but smack him at the same time for being so pretentious to think a film fan won't see right through his arrogance. Multiple scenes of what Tom considers humor point this out entirely by being long, drawn-out scenes with Deiter Laser (Bill Boss) acting like a complete jackass overacting a joke to the point that would make Jim Carrey cringe. Basically, the story in a nutshell (about all you need) is a deranged prison warden (Laser) who decides at his last straw to use the ideas from the Human Centipede movies to punish criminals and deter further offenders from ever breaking the law. This revelation is made when the governor (played by, wait for it, Eric Roberts) gives Boss 2 weeks to get his prison in order. What better way than take all the prisoners and sew them ass to mouth together, right? Anyway, back to the gore, a scene or two MAY have been considered "gross" years ago, but there is nothing too raw at all. Some of the humor is quite funny in a very dark way (his idea of healthy food is one of them) but the overshadowing of the poor acting is a deterrent (in other words, yes, it is a b-budget movie BUT it was so painfully obvious the actors were purposely acting bad to become a b-budget movie) So again the numbnut, Tom Six, thinks he is outsmarting the audience with this backasswards attempt at laughs. These laughs tend to come more from suggestions and the cheesy attempt at being an exploitative film(women should love a secretary named "Tits") All and all, it has the pros but is outweighed by the cons. The good news, it was only supposed to be a trilogy, so we may be spared of another one.
