History YMMV / TheHumanCentipede

** Both of Martin's parents in ''Full Sequence.''

** Martin's mother in ''Full Sequence.''

** [[{{ptitledzx0p3j9}} Tosh.0]] has turned "Rohyphnol. Rape drug." into a RunningGag.

** The Centipede in general has been parodied almost to this point. A common game on the internet after the film came out was to decide who should be in a real-life version of the Centipede, and what positions they should be in. Centipedes made from [[TheScrappy hated celebrities]] (JustinBieber, ParisHilton, various DisneyChannel stars) are among the most commonly proposed.

** [[{{Tosh.0}} Daniel Tosh]] has turned "Rohyphnol. Rape drug." into a RunningGag.

* {{Squick}}: Yes. [[{{Understatement}} There is squick here]]. Would you like [[SchmuckBait details?]] Oh Lord, where to begin... oh, I know! How about the part where Lindsay [[spoiler:is forced to eat Katsuro's poo?]]

* [[NightmareFuel Nightmare]] FetishFuel: It's like ''{{FEAR}}''. Due to the complete horror, things that probably would be fetish fuel just... [[{{Understatement}} aren't]].

* CrowningMomentOfFunny: Not the movie itself, but the comments to an [[http://www.avclub.com/articles/the-human-centipede-first-sequence,41135/ AV Club]] review are hilarious. Particularly the discussion on what the "centipede" was supposed to be able to do.
** The YouTube video "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIfeNhO7duI Human Centipede Makeup Tutorial]]". Also serves as Nightmare Retardant.
** According to the director people at the American premiere were vomiting, people at Japanese premiere couldn't stop laughing.
*** Have you seen some of the more dark and disgusting anime and manga? To the Japanese, this movie is either a hilarious Narm-fest or "gotta laugh to keep from [[strike:crying]] vomiting!"
** [[{{ptitledzx0p3j9}} Daniel Tosh's]] [[http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=343580&title=spoiler-alert-human-centipede rambling, half-hour long review]]. SarcasmMode is on full blast the entire time.

* TearJerker: Okay, maybe not. But Lindsay's reaction to her fate is so broken and pathetic that you might actually have an emotional response.
** The brief moment in the cage at night, where all three members of the centipede silently hold hands, may be as poignant as this movie gets.

** [[spoiler:By going the meta route: In ''Human Centipede II'', a guy decides to create a centipede after watching [[ShowWithinAShow the first movie.]]

* LoveItOrHateIt: Literally, the critical response. It has a 50% rating on RottenTomatoes. Either it's a genius and revolutionary work of horror, or it's filth that shouldn't even be dignified with a review.
** [[http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100505/REVIEWS/100509982 Roger Ebert, in his review]], [[BrokeTheRatingScale refuses to award it a rating]]:
--->''The star rating system is unsuited to this film. Is the movie good? Is it bad? Does it matter? It is what it is and occupies a world where the stars don't shine.''

* LoveItOrHateIt: The critical response. Either it's a genius and revolutionary work of horror, or it's filth that shouldn't even be dignified with a review.

** [[spoiler: They'd die even quicker from dehydration since they have no mouths to drink water with.]]

** He was the world's number one surgeon for the separation of conjoined twins. Of course he would use antibiotics and anti-rejection drugs to ensure the health of his centipede. (Even though this never fully explained, he does make certain they're a tissue match.)

** The Centipede in general has been parodied almost to this point.

*** I think the actual quote was "I found my B.", referring to the A, B, and C positions.

* NightmareRetardant: Although the premise really is NightmareFuel, the absolutely [[{{Narm}} narmful]] acting, the efforts made to make fun of the film, and the mere existence of a ''ridiculously'' random [[FanFic/TheHuemnCeniped2TheHumenMilipede fanfic]] make it nearly impossible to take it seriously anymore. Perhaps it really ''is'' scarier if [[OverlyLongGag you don't see the movie]].

* CompleteMonster: Heiter wants sew people together mouth-to-anus. Do we need to explain this?

** [[http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100505/REVIEWS/100509982 Roger Ebert, in his review,]] [[BrokeTheRatingScale refuses to award it a rating]]:

* NauseaFuel: ''[[RunningGag You don't even need to see it.]]'' Just READING about it is enough to put you off food.
* [[NightmareFuel Nightmare]] FetishFuel: It's like ''{{FEAR}}''. Due to the complete horror, things that probably would be fetish fuel just....[[{{Understatement}} aren't.]]

** Katsuo's ridiculously poetic threat to Heiter: "The Japanese possess unbelievable strength when backed into a corner!"
