The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) (2011) |

The film is reprehensible, dismaying, ugly, artless and an affront to any notion, however remote, of human decency."

Chaos (2005) |
"
I urge you to avoid it. Don't make the mistake of thinking it's 'only' a horror film, or a slasher film. It is an exercise in heartless cruelty and it ends with careless brutality. The movie denies not only the value of life, but the possibility of hope."
