10 Movies That Definitely Would Benefit from the 'Human Centipede' Treatment



While talk doesn't always equal tickets sold, it's clear that Tom Six's clinically perverted The Human Centipede has hit a mainstream nerve. When everyday folk are asking you about the notorious foreign fright flick (including those who normally dismiss anything remotely horrific), it's clearly become part of the cultural fabric. As a result, the movie's main theme (an insane doctor's desire to stitch people up - ass to mouth - in order to interconnect them via their gastric systems) could easily become fodder for future projects. Just imagine the next Harry Potter film with a little Voldemort to Malfoy to Bellatrix Lestrange re-attachment, or better yet, the next 3D animated effort with a little cartoon cruelty thrown in. Here are a few suggests for other titles that definitely could use a little digestive diversion:

Transformers 2 - First problem to overcome - the whole 'exhaust to input' dynamic among the robots. Lots of welding will be needed. Second issue - who's got the anus to match Ms. Fox's inflated collagen lips? Nobody in the cast is that big an asshole.

Furry Vengeance - CG critters doing bad physical comedy is one thing. Computer generated varmints stitched together like a taxidermist's sickest fantasy might just makes things more…entertaining. Couldn't be any worse than the kid vid atrocity already on display.

Sex and the City: The Movie - A perfect solution for these whiny , weathered matrons. The only problem - who's motormouth remains rectum free. That is a toughy. Still, this retrofit does offer the perfect built in title - The Human Yenta-pede

Pinocchio (The Roberto Benigni Version) - Might be the only way to shut that balding Italian scallion up.

Nine - Talk about your noxious musical misfires. Perhaps the experience would be improved if, instead of singing, the cast had their vocal chords clogged by another person's internal cast-offs. Definitely couldn't hurt.

Twilight (Any Installment) - Want to take the droning, dreary, human/vampire/werewolf love triangle to its obvious aesthetic ends? Stick Bella in between Edward and Jacob, get out your surgical thread, and let the supernatural sleaze begin!

Bruno - A premise that is basically three-quarters of the way there to begin with - so why stop at the mere suggestion.

The Jonas Brothers: the 3D Concert Experience - See Bruno

Funny Games (American Version) - If director Michael Haenke really wanted to challenge Hollywood's love of all things sick, twisted, and violent, he would have done away with the pair of fey serial killers and, instead, tied his typical American family up, tooth and taint style.

Shrek: Talk about your donkey show!
