Gasper Noe has a few other messed up films which I have not seen yet. I suggest GUMMO, THE ACID HOUSE & BULLY. Not as bad as Irreversible but totally weird. I'm going to watch another Irvine Welch film ESCTASY & I also rented Beyond the black rainbow... If you already watch the first 2 Human Centipedes then you must watch the 3rd. It's more comedy but you have a few recognizable B movie actors like Eric Roberts. Best part of the movie is Bree Olsen. She looks really sleazy. The sweat running down her chest & thighs in that desert heat looks really good...

I saw a striking film I'd like you guys to take a look at: Irreversible (2002)

I've seen all of Noe's films now. None of them are a patch on this IMO, but I Stand Alone (and the short, Carne, which acts as a prequel to it and should really be watched first) are worth a look.
His latest two, Enter The Void and Love, have their moments, but they're overlong and indulgent, and lack the spark. IMO, obviously.

Irreversible is his best flick. I've only read an article on Love so far and it was a mixed review. I must say I found Irreversible a bit difficult to watch, mostly because I found the style annoying and pretentious.

Saw a strange movie the other night - "The Tribe". About a lawless school full of deaf kids. They sign throughout the two hours, but with no subtitles, so you're deliberately distanced from what's going on.
It was made in the Ukraine... there's no hugging in it, but at one point a guy does get hit and just stands there doing nothing, so I can see the connection.
