Cult horror film ‘worse than Human Centipede’ is terrifying viewers all over again
TikTok users have revived a 2014 horror film featuring Lily-Rose Depp that has left them feeling "traumatised". Heidi Wong (@itsheidiwong) branded the film "worse than The Human Centipede," with hundreds of fellow TikTokers agreeing. "Out of all the horror movies that I’ve seen, this one gets to me the most," she said, before explaining: “Tusk is about a podcaster who meets a crazy man who wants to turn him into a walrus, as in surgically turn him from a human to a walrus." In another video, Heidi described it as a horror film that is not spoken about enough, adding in the caption that it was "not ok" – and she wasn't alone with her thoughts. One person responded: "Nah that man scared me for the rest of my life tbh his face and the whole whale room." @itsheidiwong This movie was NOT OK😭 Follow for more✅ #movie #movies #horror #horrortok #movietok A second wrote: "I watched it today with my brother-in-law who's watched it 3 times willingly. I've never regretted something more." "I think this is one of those cases where it's good that we don't talk about this movie," one person shared.
