How many filmmakers strutting across fancy red carpets would literally give their life for a movie? Film dictator Tom Six (creator of The Human Centipede trilogy) turns the camera on himself to document his glorious battle against choking political correctness and his decaying body. Living with Multiple Sclerosis and being unable to sell The Onania Club (2019) proved a lethal and highly entertaining combination. Confined to darkness in his Amsterdam home, he made his final film: a radical, self-deprecating satirical fever-dream documentary about the film industry... and the end of Tom Six.

Despite all its very laboured non-PC humour, this film does have a relevant story to tell: about the terrible end awaiting all those who embark on risk-taking careers in indie film-making that end in failure. Go to Full Review Owen Gleiberman Variety 1 day ago
The End of Tom Six, an underground-cinephile-on-acid curio, is worth seeing for the question it raises: Do we want the arena of cinema to be a place where anything can happen, or do we want it to be a safe space? Go to Full Review Martin Unsworth Starburst Aug 18, 2026

If this is how Tom Six bows out of the movie world, it’s a fitting and poignant way to go: in his own terms and done in the worst possible taste. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
