Friday the 13th picture

Trivia: According to Michael Bay, Travis Van Winkle's Trent is the exact same Trent from the Transformers movie, meaning that both movies take place in the same universe.

Suggested correction: This info has been proven to be wrong. In Transformers, Travis Van Winkle plays Trent DeMarco, while here he plays Trent Sutton.

While I don't think Michael Bay ever directly said they exist in the same universe (if he did, I can't find it, so a link to him saying it should be provided). However, the films, as is, never reveal Trent's last name. For Friday the 13th, "Sutton" comes from a deleted scene, and "DeMarco" comes from the novelization of the "Transformers" film.

To add, the trivia never stated what Trent's last name was. Only that they were the same character.

The Human Centipede picture

Trivia: The movie spawned from a dark joke the director made. He had jokingly blurted out that a sexual predator he saw on TV should "have his mouth stitched to the a** of a fat truck driver." He and his friends found the idea so gross that he decided to develop it into a horror movie.

The Fourth Kind picture

Trivia: In a deleted scene, we are shown so-called "actual footage" from when a lone police officer is staking out the Tyler residence. In the beginning of the scene, another voice shouts "Action!" before anyone moves. If this was actual footage from the police car's dashboard camera, who is doing the shouting?
