Certainly, it appears that a member of the cast from the notorious Human Centipede film series can indeed empathize, as stated by her friend.

On JaackMaate's Happy Hour podcast, TV host and DJ Alex Zane recently had a conversation with Stevie and Jack Dean about everything related to the film.

The group's attention soon shifted to some of the most gruesome movies ever made, including, of course, the Human Centipede trilogy, after discussions on the Star Wars franchise and Rotten Tomatoes ratings.

"You've got to imagine when you're doing that, you think, well on set, everyone is really careful. It's all done very professionally because it's such a graphic and grotesque thing," he said.

In the initial installment of the series, a disturbed German surgeon abducts three tourists and performs a surgical procedure that links them together, connecting their mouths to their rectums, thus creating the titular 'human centipede.'

As copycat develop their own centipedes with expanding populations of victims, their sequels get progressively more disgusting and ridiculous.

Recently, Zane claimed that he is acquainted with an actor from the second movie, disclosing a particularly terrible aspect of the production.

"And [the actor] said 'Yeah, no we were meant to have these special pants to wear, but they were paper thin.'”

"So you really did have your face... And she said it was horrible because you have your nose in between the buttocks of the person in front with very, very little protection."

One of the interviewers then joked: "I'd be putting some Lynx Africa down there in the morning."

A few years ago, one of the stars of The Human Centipede disclosed the most frequent query regarding her involvement in the horrifying film series.

Ashley C Williams told the Guardian: "The number one question I get asked is did anyone fart in my mouth? No!”

"We were very respectful of one another. The infamous scene where the character at the front of the centipede has to relieve himself was filmed in one take and took 10 seconds. It was easy but I was grateful Tom [the film's director] didn't film it for longer than he had to."

Has anyone else postponed eating dinner?

Despite the scary stuff in the movies, the actors and crew work together professionally and as a team. They prioritize the safety and well-being of everyone, even in the most bizarre and unsettling of circumstances.
