Tom Six's next film is psychological thriller The Onania Club, which is due out later this year, so we think this would be the perfect time to look at what inspired the Dutch director's disturbing iconic trilogy. The final film in the torture trilogy The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence) was critically panned and derided for its enjoying of sexual violence and self-serious focus on punishment in the criminal justice system. The controversy would continue with Six's sequel to the film The Human Centipede 2 (Full Sequence), which was only released in the UK in 2011 after substantial cuts and edits, after the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) refused to give the film an 18 certificate unless the film cut a large number of graphic scenes - including masturbation with sandpaper, rape with barbed wire, and the brutal murder of a newborn baby. It was condemned for its revolting and grotesque scenes, which showed a German surgeon who kidnaps three tourists, tortures them, before he joins them surgically, mouth to anus, forming a "human centipede" - a conjoined triplet. The iconic Dutch horror film The Human Centipede by director Tom Six was released in 2009 and produced some rather visible reactions.
