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.

Memorable quotes from The Human Centipede (First Sequence)

"Their flesh is his fantasy"
"I don’t like human beings."
"Do you already regret your little escape? In fact, I'm thankful for it, because now... I know definitely you are the middle piece!"
"God. Are you God? I'm just a puny insect. I cast out my parents, left my child, dismissed their love and led a selfish life. Just like an insect. No, my existence is even lower than insects, but... but dear God... that's how I've lived, and this is my punishment. I want to believe that I'm still a human being... Hey girls! Hey mister! What an insane world we live in."
"One digestive system? Is this a perverted film you've been talking about?"
"He's gonna stitch us up. He's gonna stitch us up arse-to-mouth."
"Let's see. The centipede can be considered a phallic symbol. Centipedes are very aggressive creatures. Their bite can be very painful. Maybe he's connecting the pain that a centipede inflicts with the pain inflicted on him through use of psychological and sexual abuse by his father."
"I don't speak with a stupid filmmaker about his poop fetish!"
