When Tom Six's horror freakout "The Human Centipede (First Sequence)" was released in 2009, it was met with much disgust and ballyhoo. The poster boasted that the film was "100 medically accurate," something that no movie poster should ever boast.
The premise was wild and gross and repelled prudes while attracting seekers of the extreme. A mad scientist named Dr. Josef Heiter (Dieter Laser) -- clearly inspired by Josef Mengele -- kidnaps three hapless tourists and announces his dark plan while they are strapped to gurneys in his basement. Dr. Heiter intends to surgically connect the three people via their alimentary canals. He will connect one person's face to the previous person's anus, and remove tendons in their knees, forcing them to crawl. In so doing, he will create a human centipede. There is no stated reason for his experiment.

You sign up for a role in a movie, then back out? Then be sure a lawsuit is upon its way! Movie casting is such an unsteady art. The actors sign up for the roles, and then they are changed or chopped. On most occasions, it doesn’t end up in the courtroom. But, sometimes, it does because millions of dollars are at stake when an actor breaches a contract. Let’s check out some of the instances that led to legalities ensuing after an actor left a project: Dieter Laser – The Human Centipede 3 In the movie The Human Centipede,

You can’t help but have high hopes for a film called Fried Barry so thankfully expectations have been massively exceeded. Writer/director Ryan Kruger extends his 2017 short of the same name into a phenomenal mind-f**k masterpiece that transcends nano-budget B movie trappings.
The script doesn’t let up as we’re swiftly introduced to Barry (brilliantly played by Gary Green), a perpetually frazzled, financially struggling, drug addled dad/scumbag, who looks like a hybrid of Lee Van Cleef, Julian Beck (Kane from Poltergeist 2) and Dieter Laser from The Human Centipede films.
After walking out on his wife and young son, Barry goes pub, gets tousled on heroin and is then either possessed by extra-terrestrials or has the type of frighteningly heightened hallucination that would suggest he’s been cajoled onto a toad licking frenzy by a psycho Shaman from Mars.
We’re then swiftly booted face first into Barry’s odyssey,...

Dieter Laser, the German actor who appeared in The Human Centipede (First Sequence) and The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence) has reportedly passed away. According to Dread Central, who picked up the news on social media, Laser died on February 29th aged 78. The actor, who also showed up in Lexx and a number of German productions, was perhaps best-known for his role as Dr. Josef Heiter in Tom Six’s controversial 2009 film, where he attempts to create a ‘human centipede’ out of unwilling victims.
Laser was born in Kiel in 1942, and despite doubts due to his fundamentalist Christian upbringing, broke into acting aged sixteen when he asked the doorman at the Deutsches Schauspielhaus theatre in Hamburg how to become a performer. Beginning work as an extra, he developed a career in the theatre, including as co-founder of the Schaubühne theatre in Berlin.

In what can only be described as the confectionery equivalent of “nobody asked,” the parody company Unnecessary Inventions have created a gummy candy in the style of the gross-out horror film The Human Centipede. Designed by twisted mastermind Matt Benedetto, the candy depicts three gummy humans all attached to each other in a similar way to the victims from the first movie.
If this wasn’t enough, the pièce de résistance is a little red line running through each “person” as an obvious means of depicting the intestines that connects them all. Has anyone gone off their appetite yet?
We haven’t tried any, but if we know gummy candy, the taste is probably quite sweet. Still, the fact that they’re associated with the films might be enough to put some people off. In any case, you can see them for yourself in the gallery down below:

What is the point of having a soul if everyone around you doesn’t? That’s the central question asked by Rainer Sarnet’s November, a bleakly told Estonian fairy tale tragedy adapted from Andrus Kivirähk’s novel Rehepapp. At its core is romance — the kind based in unrequited love that will never bear fruit. Liina (Rea Lest) is a peasant girl trying to catch Hans’ (Jörgen Liik) eye while his sights are affixed well above his social stature upon the German Baron’s (Dieter Laser) visiting daughter (Jette Loona Hermanis). They each leave their homes at night to watch the objection of their affection, the latter hiding in the shadows behind the Baroness as she sleepwalks and the former transformed into a wolf so she may spy in plain sight.
These two are seemingly the last young children in a town ravaged by the black plague. Many believed them...

"Take your pants off and put them on your head." Oscilloscope Labs has debuted the official Us trailer for an insane fantasy horror romance film from Estonia titled November, which first premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival last year. Adapted from the best-selling novel Rehepapp by Andrus Kivirähk, the film is set in a 19th century village, where the peasant girl Liina longs for the simple boy Hans, but Hans is inexplicably infatuated by a visiting German baroness who possesses all that he longs for. Rea Lest stars as Liina, and Jörgen Liik as Hans, with a full cast including Arvo Kukumägi, Katariina Unt, Taavi Eelmaa, Heino Kalm, Meelis Rämmeld, and Dieter Laser. This film won Best Cinematography at Tribeca last year, and stopped by a bunch of other festivals. It certainly looks great, also seems weird and twisted and dark as hell.

There are horror movies that will give you nightmares, and cause you to fear showers and shallow waters for decades. There are some that get deep under your skin – often times because they've literally flayed or burrowed under their characters' skins – and others that will make you see everyday items (a bowl of pea soup, a hockey mask, a videotape) in a horrifying new light. And then there are the ones that push so many social-taboo envelopes, strike so many collective raw nerves and tweak so many communal gag reflexes that they are a cut,...

I may as well start with one of the most infamous cases of an actress dropping out of a film to which they'd apparently agreed.
Director Jennifer Lynch originally had Madonna pegged to take the lead in her debut feature, Boxing Helena. The story of a woman who has her limbs removed and is kept in a box (it's as charming as it sounds), the role was then offered to Kim Basinger when Madonna passed.

This sick ‘satire’ on American culture draws to a welcome close
The final, smugly repugnant instalment in Tom Six’s scatological torture-porn trilogy boasts jokes (both verbal and visual) about female circumcision, sexual assault and Crohn’s disease, and features a fantasy sequence of punctured-kidney rape.
Dieter Laser and Laurence R Harvey return (in different roles) as governor and accountant of a Guantánamo-style institution where the first prison centipede is under way. The get-out-of-jail-free card played by Dutch writer/director Tom Six (who cameos as himself in old-hat postmodern style) is that this is a satire of grotesque American culture, but watching it is as appealing as being force-fed warm diarrhoea. “These films risk causing harm,” shouts one inmate. “They should be banned!” No, they should just be ignored.

The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence) is in UK cinemas now, serving up more stomach-churning depravity, questionable morality and serious over-acting.
In outing number three, Centipede veteran Dieter Laser plays a cowboy prison warden under fire thanks to a heatwave that's sending inmates into a riotous fury. With cost cutting and prison efficiency a priority, the warden's accountant Dwight (star of Centipede 2 Laurence R Harvey) suggests sewing the inmates all together as a solution. From there... well, things naturally get grim.

Dieter Laser’s megalomaniac prison boss holds this offensive film together – and he’s even a bit funny
What can only be called The Human Centipede franchise just got even more gross for its third iteration and last hurrah. Queasy though it is to admit it, there is something compelling about its extreme horror. This is because of the screaming performance of Tom Six’s star performer Dieter Laser, who has taken it to the next level. He is now even more bizarre: a colossally over-the-top turn, weirdly like Zero Mostel in The Producers, as directed by Sam Fuller.

As the third and final part of the grotesque franchise is released, its creator talks about how appalled his lead actor was by the script, the need to shock and why his mother loves his films
Related: Film review: The Human Centipede (First Sequence)
For a brief time last year, it looked as if a third Human Centipede film didn’t have legs. Dieter Laser, who starred in the first of the unashamedly grotesque franchise and was due to return for the third, was so appalled by the script that he tried to back out. “Suddenly, Dieter got scared,” says Tom Six, author of that script and writer/director of all three films. “Very scared about doing all those horrible things, and got worried about what people would say all over the world. He said: ‘You’ll have to change horses, I’m out.’”

The stomach-churning trailer for The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence) has been unveiled.
The final film in Tom Six's controversial horror series will be "100% politically incorrect", according to the director.
Final Sequence will see a prison warden (Dieter Laser) teaming up with his right hand man (Laurence R Harvey) to create a gruesome 500-person centipede to solve America's prison system.
Six has confirmed the plot will involve new characters and will be set in a big state prison in America.
Six has previously revealed that he has received death threats for making the Human Centipede films, with some going as far as describing him as a "threat to humanity".
The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence) will be released in select cinemas on July 10, ahead of a DVD and VOD release on July 20.

Writer/Director: Tom Six. Cast: Dieter Laser, Lawrence R Harvey, Bree Olson, Tom Six and Eric Roberts. From the bowels of a hot Texas prison comes the third and final instalment of Tom Six's infamous Human Centipede trilogy, The Human Centipede 3: (Final Sequence). If you are a fan of the first two Centipede films, you'll fall mouth-to-ass with this one. If you're not a fan of the first two, or even if you haven't seen them, this film is still digestible. That's the beauty of Six's trilogy—three solid films that work well stitched together, but can also be pulled apart and appreciated on their own. The Final Sequence is not for the squeamish, but it is also not as dark as the first two. Although the film easily tips the gore scale, this one is even more of a black comedy than the previous. If you’re into completely disgusting,...

Monster Pictures has announced that it will release The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence), the third and presumably last chapter in director Tom Six's controversial bad-taste trilogy in the UK this July. The film will open in selected cinemas on 10 July, before hitting Blu-ray, DVD and VOD a few days later on 13 July.The third instalment sees the return of Dieter Laser, star of the original cult classic, as well as part 2's despicable protagonist Laurence R Harvey, although both actors take on new roles in this film. They are joined by Eric Roberts as they attempt to engineer a 500-man human centipede as a way of maintaining order in a Deep South Us penitentiary, with predictably disgusting and darkly humorous results."Nasty, revolting, and...

The wait is finally over ladies and gentlemen! One of this years most anticipated horror films is finally here! Yep, Tom Six (I Love Dries) has finally unleashed The Human Centipede 3: Final Sequence upon the world. When I watched parts 1 & 2 upon initial release, I was rather underwhelmed, but upon revisiting the films prior to the third and final chapter in the trilogy, I found myself enjoying the films for what they are. I won’t go in to detail because if you’re reading this review, you have already seen them. Needless to say, the films were brutal with an original concept that made Dieter Laser (John Gleuckstadt) amd Laurence R. Harvey (The Editor) household names and horror icons.

I have a terrible suspicion that filmmaker Tom Six would be delighted to learn that someone in the real world had tried to create a human centipede. I’m “biast” (pro): nothing
I’m “biast” (con): despise this series
(what is this about? see my critic’s minifesto)
I’m not sure I’ve ever endured such ludicrous evidence of a filmmaker more in love with himself and his work than Dutch writer and director Tom Six displays in The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence). This is now the second film he has made praising the expression of his own demented imagination in The Human Centipede (First Sequence) as something so astonishing and inventive as to be the stuff that drives madmen to imitate it. The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) — which I have seen but not reviewed, it is so revolting and utterly without the smallest iota...

There’re few things more exciting than attending your first movie premiere, especially when it’s a movie you have been greatly anticipating. After seeing and immediately becoming a fan of both of Tom Six’s previous Centipede movies, I was more than curious to see what was coming next. Unfortunately I walked out of the theater thoroughly disappointed.
Long plot summary short, the film opens at George W. Bush prison, where slowly-losing-his-mind prison warden Bill Boss (Dieter Laser) and his accountant, Dwight Butler (Laurence R. Harvey), are trying to not only quell the multitude of prison riots and violence, but also find a way to stop the prison system from hemorrhaging money. Both these factors have convinced Governor Hughes (Eric Roberts) to fire them, but he gives the duo two weeks to turn things around. Eventually, Butler pleads with Boss to consider his idea to introduce the human centipede into the prison system.

No. Nope. Uh-uh. In case you were expecting director Tom Six’s sicko human-anus-to-mouth-stitching horror saga to suddenly become better, or at least tolerable, by its third installment, let me just shatter your dreams right now. Human Centipede 3 is the worst of the lot. Is that even possible? Apparently, it is. Maybe it’s because it’s also the most ambitious — ambitious in a way that undermines the earlier films’ peculiarly chilly and disquieting world view, their … wait, integrity can’t possibly be the word I’m looking for, can it? Let me put it this way: I suspect that even those who consider themselves fans of the Human Centipede franchise will feel betrayed by this outing.This time, the setting is a prison, run by a wide-eyed, bellowing cartoon-demon of a warden named Bill Boss (played by Dieter Laser, who played the demented visionary Doctor Heiter in the first...

100% Politically incorrect. 100% Medically accurate, so claims Tom Six. 100% complete garbage. Harsh? Not really.
I am not going to step onto a soap box and preach to you about how some films have gone too far. Please, go further. I am not going to rant about how certain things should never be portrayed on film. Please, push the envelope and break boundaries. I will not call for censorship and restraint in exercising free speech. Please, by all means, shock and disgust us till the cows come home. However, what I will do, is to persistently and relentlessly call things as I see them.
This movie is garbage. Not because its vulgar or offensive, but because its a failure. I have seen the entire trilogy now, and while in all honesty I can admit that I am no big fan of the franchise as a whole, my disdain reaches its monumental peak...

The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence) is an empty, self-gratifying, wannabe exploitation flick that’s crafted by a monkey who started by flinging poo at a wall with artistic intent – yes, The Human Centipede (First Sequence) has value – yet has now devolved into a smut-peddling attention whore who keeps flinging poo just to stay relevant. I wish I could stop my review of Tom Six’s worst movie to date right there, but I cannot – because that would be doing all of you a disservice (and because I have a minimum wordcount requirement). Six’s franchise has turned from a cheeky attempt to push unimaginable boundaries into a “for shocks only” nightmare that prays college film students will dare one another to sit through one last ass-to-mouth ensemble, cringing with every life-giving passage of waste. Unfortunately, Six’s third film is a dare with no winners, whether or not you...

A descent into a dank, rank hole of meta depravity (and doo-doo), The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence) follows in its 2011 predecessor's footsteps by turning inward on itself. Inspired by the first two movies, an American prison warden and his trusty sidekick (Dieter Laser and Laurence R. Harvey, the respective stars of those earlier efforts) decide that the best way to cope with out-of-control operating costs is to fashion an enormous ass-to-mouth human centipede out of inmates. Before getting to that hideousness, however, the film first sees fit to subject its audience to Laser eating fried clitorises (imported from Africa!), castrating a prisoner and consuming his testicles, forcing his secretary (Bree Olson) to swallow after imposed oral sex, and spitting an...

There is one genuinely entertaining moment in the conclusion to Tom Six’s ass-to-magnum opus, The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence). Following a particularly nasty encounter with an inmate, penitentiary warden Bill Boss (The Human Centipede’s Dieter Laser) proudly, arrogantly reiterates to the prisoner’s doctor, “I castrated him.” Without missing a beat, an exasperated Dr. Jones…

Director Tom Six doesn’t have to cast the net too far to find his fair share of skeptics, who denounce his horror franchise as tasteless and gratuitous. But to write off The Human Centipede series in such a way would undermine its satirical and, quite frankly, bonkers edge, and its a tone that Six will look to conclude with upcoming threequel, Human Centipede III (Final Sequence).
Retaining the 100% medically accurate claims from the original films, Final Sequence will see Tom Six play a director not unlike himself, who is approached by a twisted prison security guard setting out to create the longest human sequence to date. Such a feat would be carried out on the cell mates on death row, surgically attaching all 100 of them in what is surely a fate worse than death.

There's little new that can be said about Tom Six's gross-out trilogy, particularly as its third and (supposedly) final chapter, The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence), crawls onto VOD later this month. For better or for worse, however, the writer/director is not holding his cards close to his vest. The newest trailer for the third installment shows, if anything beyond violent mayhem, he's goes full-out medieval on his once "medically accurate" series. This new trailer, which showcases returning stars Laurence R. Harvey and a now-bald Dieter Laser, has our main character proudly announce he's "gonna bring back medieval torture practices," as he gears up to spawn a 500-person long human centipede from a line-up of convicted felons. They say it'll stop prison torture, and end violence inside the cells and ... yada, yada, yada. You get the idea. Along the way, Laser sticks his head in a bucket and screams inside it.

"Things will have to change fast. I think I have a solution." The "solution" in Tom Six's third entry to his extreme body horror franchise is the largest attempted human centipede in history. The prison-set experiment and the slipping sanity of the warden enforcing it are both teased in the new full-length trailer for The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence).

The sequel that nobody asked for, "Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence)," has a new trailer, and it's even weirder and grosser than you can possibly imagine.
But we have to give a little credit to writer/director Tom Six, who's come up with a rather clever take on the third film in this franchise. Dieter Laser plays the warden of a violent, chaotic prison that faces constant riots, high medical costs, and danger to its guards. His right-hand man (Laurence R. Harvey) comes up with a plan to control the prisoners and bring about order - a plan he hatched after watching the first two "Human Centipede" movies.
Thus, he brings in Six, who plays himself - yes, himself! - to consult and advise on assembling a 500-person human centipede. It's all very meta and self-referential, which adds another layer of weirdness on top of an already strange concept.
