Cecil B. Demented gets much better with repeated viewings. It's actually sort of inspiring, in an incredibly lofty sense.
Human Centipede wasn't bad at all. The opening tracking shot made me very nostalgic for my exploitation favs. I thought parts of it were absolutely hilarious, like the much over-exposed-due-to-the-internet diagram of the medical process. Also any part that involved one of the links shitting into the other's mouth... I live for that kinda stuff - sadly enough. *SPOILER ALERT* Especially the Asian man's 'death shit' *END SPOILER* That part had me dying.
The writing was so/so, as was the acting, and I saw the ending coming from a mile away... but that's just typical b-movie fare. I think what I really liked most about it was that I had 2 friends, who normally detest this kind of schlock, or anything with subtitles, showing me this incredibly schlocky film with all kinds of subtitles. Like I said in my initial comment, I really appreciate that something like this broke into the eye of the mainstream. I remember reading about it on BloodyDisgusting way before it came out, and would have never dreamed it would've become such a well-known flick.
