The filming was erratic. He used a heavy VHS-C camcorder, his thumb constantly over the lens. He would whisper-mumble to the camera: "For Mr. Six. He will see. I am the true fan."
His mother, a monstrously obese woman, spent her days screaming at him from the top of the stairs. His only comfort was a battered DVD of The Human Centipede . He watched it every night, rewinding the surgery scene, memorizing the sutures. For Martin, the film wasn't grotesque; it was beautiful . But he felt it lacked ambition. Three segments were a joke.

Obsessed with Tom Six’s first film, a lonely, abused parking garage attendant named Martin decides to create a "superior" version of the Centipede using twelve victims, recording it all on a grainy camcorder to send to the director.
