Argh, I wish I paused it before answering the door, there's a good view of our wall mounted tv from the open front door.

I hope he's seen it before and knows it's a film.

What else was he likely to think it was? A home video?Confused
Just let out a wheezy laugh and shocked my dog at that!

@ThistleWitch

Why does anyone watch Hostel, Saw, Audition, Clockwork Orange, Splatter, etc?

I have no idea!

Those films turn my stomach, and yeah i know different strokes for different folks, but i just dont get it at all

I’ve only heard of 3 of those and I don’t know why anyone watches them.

Re Serbian Film, I probably don’t know the detail but from what I’ve heard, I can’t see how it can be worse.

I can think of some suitable punishments for rapists etc but the idea of THC just would never occur to me.

Please someone briefly explain Serbian film to me. I don't want to google it.

MadameBlobby · 27/10/2020 21:25

I made the mistake of googling Serbian film once. Nope.

Themadcatparade · 27/10/2020 21:28

Absolutely horrific film. I had eaten some fine off mince that evening in my chilli (it was slightly off colour and I thought I’d risk it, I was very young at the time)

I spent half of the film running to my friends grans kitchen sink to hurl over it. I blame the film not the mince.

That would be sightly unfair on anyone else who opens the thread! Although someone who actually knows the plot could pm it.

There's not a pleasant way to give you the plot or a brief description because most of the films description would need a trigger warning if it was topic being discussed.

It's one of those things where someone writing it here so you don't google could upset other readers and I usually eye roll at all the trigger warnings.

There's a wiki page if you don't want to google. Go straight to Wikipedia and search the film there for a summary without footage or screenshots, but even a brief summary could be incredibly upsetting.

DelphineWalsh · 27/10/2020 21:53

Never heard of it so googled it.

Fuck.that.shit

Serbian film is the one film in my life I wished I never watched. I have a strong stomach for these things but it haunted me for ages afterwards. I still shudder when I think of it. Human centipede is nothing in comparison. Basically Serbian film crosses boundaries you really don’t want to cross. It’s not that it’s gory or anything, just sick.

Greektome · 27/10/2020 22:03

Human Centipede was based on a real man wasn't it? In Australia. I hate the idea of watching torture.

sunnysidegold · 27/10/2020 22:06

I looked up Serbian film on Wikipedia. I really wish I hadn't.

sunnysidegold · 27/10/2020 22:07

How do you put something out of your head?

Fatted · 27/10/2020 22:08

I like my horror films and have a pretty strong stomach for these things.

But just no to Human Centipede.

It is a film for people with poo fetish and I will never be convinced otherwise.

skeemee · 28/10/2020 10:30

OMG 😮 I just googled both these films🤮

Whatwouldscullydo · 28/10/2020 10:38

The human centiped annoyed me. I disnt even get a chance to take much notice of the gross essay I was too angry at the idiots who should have just stayed in the car , and the fact that one man couldn't lift 3 people on and off a table without ripping stitches.

Whatwouldscullydo · 28/10/2020 10:39

Grossness

Autocorrect fail..

joystir59 · 28/10/2020 10:39

My actor friend played one of the segments in Human Centipede 2

joystir59 · 28/10/2020 10:43

Surely Serbian Film is illegal? Just googled it. All kinds of wrong on every level

PivotPivotPivottt · 28/10/2020 10:54

I want to Google Serbian Film but I'm scared. It took me years to get over Blue Waffle after being warned over and over
again not Google that.....

Anotherthink · 28/10/2020 10:59

Serbian film is disgusting and ridiculous. I don't understand why they've called it that either, the filmmakers must despise the country since it has nothing to do with Serbia other than it being set/filmed there.

I think I watched human centipede when it came out but didn't get it. It's not scary, just silly. Definitely for those with a poo fetish as a pp said.

Lifeisabeach09 · 28/10/2020 11:16

Had to google The Human Centipede. Haha. My goodness.
Have to admit though--the male victim definitely got the better end (pun intended!) compared to the women!
Now off to google Serbian Film...

Lifeisabeach09 · 28/10/2020 11:26

Basically Serbian film crosses boundaries you really don’t want to cross.

Not seen it but read the outline on Wiki. Definitely agree with above. Very disturbing reading.
The writer of this movie must have some serious issues!!

TheRogueApostrophe · 28/10/2020 11:49

I hate horror films but I watched THC out of some kind of morbid curiosity. Tbh, as bad as it was, it almost wasn't as bad as I'd thought it would be. It was just, warped and weird. Not an enjoyable watch.

I heard about ASF on here a while ago and did Google it. Wish I hadn't. I believe it's supposed to be some kind of political allegory depicting the hell that Serbian people have faced over the years. That doesn't make it any better (but explains why it has Serbia in the title). I wouldn't watch it.
