Short description

During a stopover in Germany in the middle of a carefree road trip through Europe, two American girls find themselves alone at night when their car breaks down in the woods. Searching for help at a nearby villa, they are wooed into the clutches of a deranged retired surgeon who explains his mad scientific vision to his captives' utter horror. They are to be the subjects of his sick lifetime fantasy: to be the first to connect people, one to the next, and in doing so bring to life "the human centipede."

What's left behind the scenes

During a meeting with potential investors, Six decided to omit the details of how the centipede's members would be connected, fearing a lack of understanding. Those who funded the film's creation did not see the full picture until it was completed.

According to director Tom Six, he was inspired to create the film by medical experiments conducted by Nazis during World War II, such as the crimes of Josef Mengele at the Auschwitz concentration camp.
