It's infamous and yet somehow it made it past the Hollywood executives.
The Human Centipede is without doubt one of the more messed up films to get to the masses but how did it come about? Why did it come about? And, has anyone actually watched all 3?
An extended version of this episode is available to all monthly Ko-Fi subscribers (link at the bottom of this metadata) featuring an extra 25 minutes of content and starting at just £1 a month!
Join us and our guests; Jim and Sam from the Cast-a-role Podcast, as we delve into the films and try to work out what on earth they were thinking!
All this plus the usual fun with world record corner, "Sock or Crock" and a new game specially commissioned for this episode: "Pitch it Good, Pitch it Real Good", where we each try to pitch a good-bad film to the others and see if anyone can guess what it is.

In this series we look to ask our guest a "would you rather" style question rather than the open ended style questions you're used to from us, and see where we end up.
In this episode we're joined by the wonderful Karen from The Lightly Used Podcast.
