I have not seen Biredemic or Human Centipede - but I'm pretty sure that comparing either to the Big Lebowski is a bit like comparing apples to orangoutangs.

Sure some movies are made to be serious and end up being really bad and campy.

Others are made to be "bad" and campy from the start, and in doing so, apply varying levels of artistic precision in the process.

Most movies in the first category are fairly one dimensional - something like TBL is a lot deeper and multi-faceted. While a bit ridiculous at times - there are a lot of levels going on under that seemingly silly exterior which make for a much more more compelling film.

I wasn't trying to compare them, I was merely interested in his opinion on both. Thanks for the input though
