Critics Consensus

The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) attempts to weave in social commentary but as the movie wears on, it loses its ability to repulse and shock and ends up obnoxious and annoying.

Anton Bitel

Sight & Sound

monochrome mise en scne and surrealist flourishes more reminiscent of Eraserhead and Bad Boy Bubby than of anything in conventional horror.

Derek Malcolm

London Evening Standard

There are echoes of David Lynch's Eraserhead during the more scary, nightmarish moments but Six soon resorts to shock tactics.

Rated: 2/5

Peter Bradshaw

Guardian

This wearisome sequel to the yucky cult shocker, by Dutch horror maestro Tom Six, brings the Human Centipede franchise straight to what can only be called its "Godfather 4" stage.

Rated: 1/5

Horror Movie Talk

The enjoyment of The Human Centipede 2 lies in the shock value and the commitment to depravity. The version we watched was in black and white, which added a whole other level of gritty grossness to the already disgusting experience.

Rated: 6/10

Patrick Cavanaugh

The Wolfman Cometh

The grotesque and perverse experience that audiences thought the first movie would be, for better and for worse.

Rated: 2/5

Deep Focus Review

Whatever nonsensical artistic rationalization Six uses to justify The Human Centipede 2, the result leaves you feeling empty and flat, if annoyed by its lack of substance and scares.

Rated: 0/4

Maksim S

The Human Centipede 2 plays like a bizarre, failed hybrid of Eraserhead’s unsettling art-house ambitions and Braindead’s over-the-top gore — except it achieves neither. The performances are flat, the pacing glacial, and the direction aims for disturbing artistry but lands squarely in tedious monotony. Even fans of extreme violence will find it starkly dull and utterly unengaging. A grotesque concept poorly executed.

An endurance test of a film made, uniquely, just to make every soul in existence uncomfortable. But in black and white!

Throws in as many sick things as it can, so you can guarantee to feel squeamish at least once. Not pleasant at all and will repulse most. If you like the grotesque, you’ll like this.

I turned it off halfway through, precisely at the scene depicting a half dozen people being held captive naked bound by a foot of duct tape each.

An amateur surgeon watches the original movie and tries to recreate the centipede in this twisted sequel. I'll forever have the pregnant woman driving away scarred into my brain.
