Make Haste to Live (1954)
I really wanted to like this
I'm a huge Dorothy McGuire fan and had was initially excited at discovering a film noir that I hadn't yet seen. About twenty minutes in I realized why I've never heard of this one. It's actually painful to watch. I really don't like any of the characters and have given up at 59 minutes. Just don't care what happens. For me, this is a first.
The Human Centipede (First Sequence) (2009)
DON'T WATCH this movie!
I've been a horror fan all of my life (and love the thrill of being scared) but was sickened and depressed by this movie. I called my sister (another horror fan) and pleaded with her not to watch or let her kids watch. For some inexplicable reason, I was compelled to see it through to the end and was truly sorry I did. It's been over a month and I still have nightmares.
I can't remember seeing any other flick that has been so repulsive -- there was no entertainment value and really no point to it. From what I've read, the idea for this movie arose during a conversation about a deserving punishment for child molesters. Well, maybe I can relate to that and could conceivably derive some sick sense of justice from seeing Hitler and his evil cohorts mutilated in such a fashion. But the victims in this movie were totally undeserving of their fate.
This was totally unsatisfying as entertainment. Just sick.
