The British Film Board of Classification ain't fans of Human Centipede 2. According to them, it's a risk to the viewers. Really?
Here's more:
David Cooke, Director of the BBFC said: "It is the Board's carefully considered view that to issue a certificate to this work, even if confined to adults, would be inconsistent with the Board's Guidelines, would risk potential harm within the terms of the VRA, and would be unacceptable to the public.Now I really want to see it.
"The Board also seeks to avoid classifying material that may be in breach of the Obscene Publications Acts 1959 and 1964 (OPA) or any other relevant legislation. The OPA prohibits the publication of works that have a tendency to deprave or corrupt a significant proportion of those likely to see them. In order to avoid classifying potentially obscene material, the Board engages in regular discussions with the relevant enforcement agencies, including the CPS, the police, and the Ministry of Justice. It is the Board's view that there is a genuine risk that this video work, The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence), may be considered obscene within the terms of the OPA, for the reasons given above."

OMG I wrote about the first one a few months ago. Easily the worst movie plot in the last 15 billion years or so.
I thought the first movie was obscene too -- not for sex, but because it was f'ing disgusting. Yet strangely I watched the whole thing. Twice.
