A Jackson, Tennessee teacher has been suspended after showing Human Centipede 2 (Full Sequence) to his high school class.
According to The Jackson Sun, a parent called the paper to report that students at Jackson Central-Merry High School had watched the film, which the superintendent later confirmed, although without specifically naming the film. “The matter has been addressed,” superintendent Verna Ruffin said. “It’s inappropriate and unacceptable.”
A press release sent by the school assured parents that the issue was being handled and that “Immediate action has been taken to assure that there will be no further occurrences.”
Tom Six, the director of the film caught wind of the incident and offered his support to the offending teacher via Twitter.
According to the school's press release, the teacher remains suspended pending a further investigation of the incident.
