In the film, is a man who is obsessed with the film The Human Centipede, and attempts to create his own human centipede similar to Dr. Heiter's creation, the more evil villain from his film.

He was portrayed by Laurence R. Harvey, who later played Dwight Butler in The Human Centipede 3: Final Sequence.
Biography[]
Martin goes around kidnapping people by shooting them and knocking them unconscious, before binding and gagging them and taking them to a warehouse he stole by killing its leaser. After his mother discovered his book on the Human Centipede, she destroyed it and Martin killed her in anger. He then packed some kitchen appliances such as duct tape, hammers and knives (unlike Dr. Heiter's medical equipment) to make his centipede. Martin even managed to kidnap Ashlynn Yennie, one of the actresses from the first film, to include her in the centipede by fooling her into thinking she was auditioning for a Quentin Tarantino film.
Martin has no medical skills, and ends up using a staple gun and duct tape to join up his victims and knocks out their teeth with a hammer. One victim bleeds out when Martin attempts to rip his buttocks open, and he later believes a pregnant woman is dead when smash her with a crowbar.
He manages to finish his centipede, which only contains ten people. He attempts to feed Miss Yennie beans, but she refuses and he forces a tube down her throat to make her swallow it and rips her tongue out when she screams. He then injects each victim in the centipede with a laxative, causing explosive diarrhea in each other's mouths (with the end victim uncontrollably squirting feces on the warehouse wall). Following this, Martin rapes her. The pregnant woman then comes around and manages to escape, giving birth in a car and accidentally killing the baby by crushing its head beneath the accelerator. Martin proceeds to shoot and stab the other people to kill them as they try to escape. Yennie sticks a tube up Martin's rectum when attacking him and drops his pet centipede down it. Angered, Martin fatally stabs her in the head before leaving the warehouse and his dead creation.
At the end of the film, Martin is seen back in the car parking lot watching the first film, and it's unknown if the events that took place were real or just a dream.

Personality[]
Martin is a sadistic and deranged individual, being perfectly willing to kidnap and torture people in order to fulfill his perverted desire to create his own human centipede. He shows almost no remorse towards the suffering he causes his victims, only crying over their deaths because he is unable to use them in his centipede. However, his actions are influenced by the trauma the sexual and emotional abuse he received from his father caused, and also his mental impairment which probably renders him incapable of truly understanding the suffering he causes. This makes him somewhat sympathetic, although it certainly doesn't excuse his actions. He is also a sadomasochist, taking great delight in causing harm to his genitals and enjoying the immense pain and pleasure that results from it.

Trivia[]
- Martin made his first "appearance" in a trailer in 2010 when Tom Six walked around a car park narrating his thoughts. He states he went everywhere to find the "sickest bastard", before introducing the audience to Martin, who has a box over his head. Note that this trailer takes place in a car parking lot, and Martin holds his signature crowbar that he uses to kidnap his victims.
- Laurence R. Harvey appears in the third installment The Human Centipede 3: Final Sequence as a new character called Dwight Butler. In this film, both Human Centipede movies are fictional, thus making Martin a work of fiction in that universe. As such, Martin makes a cameo at the beginning of the third film, when Bill Boss and Dwight Butler are watching The Human Centipede II: Full Sequence.
- Martin Lomax is a direct contrast to Josef Heiter:
- Josef is a tall, thin, intellectually-gifted and well-respected surgeon who lives by himself in a private home. Martin is a short, fat, intellectually-disabled and belittled security guard who lives with his mother in a council flat.
- Josef carries out the centipede with surgical equipment to experiment on random people who have done nothing to him. Martin carries out the centipede with household appliances to get revenge on the persons who wronged him.
- Josef is heard speaking in English and German throughout. Martin is implied to be capable of speech but otherwise has no onscreen dialogue.
