Please read the topic before responding to the title. The film has been cut and given a rating, it is no longer banned. - KwarK |

Few things make someone that's used to the internet (all the weird shit out there etc.) feel truly awkward and uncomfortable and that did it for me so ban it everywhere imo.
this post sums it up completely, sorry to bump an old topic but im not the first, and this is genuinely new to me, hadnt heard of the human centipede before, i feel sick after watching the trailer, how this shit even got past a conversation in a board room is beyond me

Exactly. Necrophilia, "newborn porn", ultra violent hardcore SM... this movie owns it all. But the end actually made me laugh (I'm a terrible person). Faces of Death seems to be worse too since it's looking so damn real. The internet is also full of this stuff. Back when I was a young boy with his first internet I deeply disturbed myself with a now non-existing site named ogrish.org (got deleted for violating human rights or something) where people uploaded every brutal gore video and snuff film ever existing e.g. the beheading of the hostages in iraq. Two days ago I saw the dead body of Gaddafi (correctly spelled?) on youtube... before that I saw a chinese toddler actually get rolled over by a car.
The ban doesn't do much. It's more of a publicity for such a movie. If this ban wouldn't have happened it would only get semi-famous for being the sequel to the human centipede but now there will be even more views. Considering that movies run under the category "art" everything should be legal except the showing of real death and torture. If you are 18 (or in some countries 21) you should be able to decide for yourself if you want to see such stuff and before that age your parents should keep an eye on you.

I'm against banning entertainment. Especially nowadays it's pretty redundant. I'm on the internet, I could look up pictures and videos how mexican drug gangsters pull off the skin of people. Really, who gives a shit about a movie when reality is ten times more brutal and as accesible?

This seems interesting, and because it was banned, it must be too Awesome. :D
Gonna watch it later tonight for sure.
|
No matter what, banning media is pretty stupid. If it's famous enough that a lot of peoplwe want to watch it, why stop them? Why does the government have to be banning things people want to enjoy?
|
Imagine the "who would want to see that" argument in the hands of your grandfather. To some people, there isn't a lot in today's media that is worth seeing. You think you know what's best for the world but so does everybody. Someone out there feels the same way about a horror movie you enjoy. That person could be on the banning committee some day. Isn't that terrifying?
|
I finally saw this movie.. and I was actually disgusted as to how un-disgusting the first movie was. People completely make this movie sound gross more than it actually isn't. Oh well~
|
to be honest, these movies aren't that bad, it's only gory (which usually just are quite fake) and uses camera to hide the real gory parts.
I have seen real pictures and videos of people dying and it is a lot more different than these torture stuff
in Babel, the part where the chicken's neck got twisted and pulled off and let the kids chased after the headless chicken was real, that was real creepy.

This banning committee is a joke and they even know it themselves.
Why do you think they ban this film? It's an easy target because:
1) It's disturbing enough that even at first glance most people will say "i don't care for it"
2) Nobody does care for it. They only ban these weird films that hardly anyone wants to watch to begin with.
They go around banning these tiny films that nobody cares for because then:
1) They have a purpose. They are stilling doing their job of banning films.
2) There will be no backlash. Nobody is gonna give enough of a damn to fight a ban on this film. Even it's fans will just download it.
Honestly i would not be suprised if some of the people on the committee are taking bribes from these small film makers so they can get the ultimate street cred bump.
The whole committee is a joke wich is why it limits itself to these small time films. They know that if they ever ban any film that a decent ammount of people care for they are gonna be out of a job the next day.
The committee is sustaining itself by keeping it's head low. They ban under the radar films and even those on a scale big enough to justify their existence but small enough to not draw any public attention.
If anyone would want to waste their time with that job they can go ahead and have it.

|

They make it for cash obviously - movie is retarded and just disgusting, they expect people to see it out of curiosity, thats all. $$$.
|
They allow 'A Serbian Film' and ban this one? Really? -____- Also as long as its not breaking law, it should not be banned. Everyone should judge for themselves if they want to see it.

Video Nasties 2.0?
A Serbian Film is much worse than Human Centipede by several tiers, i felt i needed to take a shower or just go to the police station and submit myself after that one.
We (in western culture) flaunt how we have freedom of this and that, yet we often fail to truly follow that.

Clearly they banned it because the guy in the movie replicates the human centipede after being inspired by the first movie and they're afraid that the public might start going around making human centipedes everywhere. Really wanted to see this, it's a pain in the ass it was banned. First one was one of the funniest movies I've ever come across.

Sorry i am scared to click on the video...is this real? i dont know what this all is about.

I wasn't able to finish watching ASF. And I really don't get it why such movies are even entering the cinemas.
