Mr. Creosote

Mr. Creosote (played by Terry Jones) was an fictional character in Monty Python's The Meaning of Life who dined at a French restaurant. Morbidly obese, he ordered large amounts of food, vomiting profusely. Finally, after being persuaded to eat a "wafer thin mint", he exploded.

It can be argued that the scene was one of the most repulsive in 20th-century cinema. Quentin Tarantino has confessed to being nauseated by this scene, but critics with stronger stomachs have praised its dark humour. It was filmed in the Porchester Centre, a public building owned by the City of Westminster on Porchester Road, London W2.
