The Human Centipede

Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the movie as the victims attempt the final escape, Katsuro uses the lamp to break the window. When he first picks up the lamp it has a shade and bulb in it. Once the next shot appears the shade and bulb are gone. (01:15:00 - 01:15:40)

Continuity mistake: In the beginning of the movie, the doctor invites the two girls knocking on his door inside out of the rain because their car broke down. He gives them both water (laced with drugs). One of the girls knocks her glass over, spilling most of the water, which can be seen as the glass sits on the table. Then when the doctor leaves the room, while the two girls are talking, you can see that the glass on the table magically is filled again.

Continuity mistake: At the very beginning of the movie as the camera pans around to the parked silver Mercedes, the wheels are straight. However, as the camera enters the driver's window to show the Doctor, the steering wheel is turned to the left (note the control buttons and wood effect on the wheel are well out of line from where they would be if the car was going in a straight line).

Continuity mistake: In the first part when the guy is in the highway place parked, when the truck drives past, you can see the guy(who was looking at the pictures) is smoking. but in close ups he is not.

Revealing mistake: When Dr. Heiter takes Katsuro from his car, you see Heiter drag him out of the back seat. He then proceeds to lift Katsuro. If you watch Katsuro's hand, you'll see he "helps" Heiter by pushing himself on the door-frame of the car (you see his hand tense as he pushes himself up).

Dr. Heiter: I'm Dr. Josef Heiter, retired, but still very well known as the leading surgeon in separating Siamese twins. Six months ago, I designed a never seen operation, not separating any more but creating. I transformed my three Rottweilers into a beautiful three hound construction. Good news, your tissues match. So, I'll explain this spectacular operation only once.

More quotes from The Human Centipede

Trivia: The movie spawned from a dark joke the director made. He had jokingly blurted out that a sexual predator he saw on TV should "have his mouth stitched to the a** of a fat truck driver." He and his friends found the idea so gross that he decided to develop it into a horror movie.

Question: When the two girls get out of their car due to a flat tyre, they begin walking back from where they just came. Why didn't they keep walking in the direction they were going instead of back tracking?

Michelle Ferris

Answer: Because back tracking they know what's around. They've already traveled that way and know it's passable and relatively safe.
