    What is seen cannot be unseen....

    Was it any good?

    Did anyone watch the film after it?

    I've seen Human Centipede before. Wasn't bad, as I recall, if you can see past the sicker aspects. Haven't seen the sequel yet, although I'll watch it if it comes on TV.

    Didn't watch Sharknado last night, but I plan on watching it today.

    I didn't watch the film after it, but there were parts that reminded me of the bit in zombie flesh eaters where they arm themselves with lawn mowers...

    Oh, and flying helicopters into tornados...

    Indeed, take out the humans-being-stitched-together aspects and it's actually a tender and moving tale of love and redemption.

    I missed the start of this and didn't want to miss any of the 'story' ;)

    Some of the syfy films are a laugh, watched Komodo vs Cobra a couple of years ago, one of those really bad films that are good for a laugh. No nudity in it though, don't get that, I thought that was the whole point.

    Me and the Mrs caught the end of one calle The Invisible Maniac years ago, now that was a great bad film.

    At the end of the day, they're just Troma films about monsters. What's not to like 8)

    I don't get what the fuss is about with Sharknado.

    Here's a list of other Syfy originals

    My favourites are Dinocroc Vs Supergator, Sharktopus and Piranahconda

    Ooh Mansquito, this looks 'good'

    The sequel is Sharknado 2: The Second One. SyFy asked twitter users for names and decided on that one.
