Relevant.
We’ve posted a couple videos for Lollipop Chainsaw before. The bad news is that those videos were since pulled. The good news is that we’ve got new embeds of all that to post here again. The other good news is we spotted a new trailer on YouTube introducing the main villain: Swan the goth kid who triggered the zombie apocalypse with an evil book and ridiculous “Jigsaw from Saw” hair. The other other good news is that Lollipop Chainsaw is a game about a chainsaw-wielding, grenade-throwing, zombie-hunting cheerleader named Juliet Starling whose boyfriend is a disembodied head. It looks as delightfully insane as it sounds.
The game comes from Suda 51 and James Gunn, the Troma alumnus who wrote and directed Super, a movie worthy of existing for this Ellen Page picture alone. The videos and promo photos below may be NSFW depending on your workplace’s policy on cartoon zombie violence and cheerleader upskirts. Man, I don’t want to live in a world where that’s not allowed, nay, celebrated.

I don’t want to be that guy but why was she just carrying around a chainsaw when she was going to school. And how does she have the know how to keep a body-less head from not being dead. I’ve got questions Gods damnet.
You didn’t have to bring a chainsaw to school? We come from different neighborhoods, my friend.
Sooooo a guy who loves Dead Rising and school girls somehow met someone who would pay millions of dollars to make this game exist?
Sweet.
*points to left arm*
See this left arm? I would chew it off for that girl in the banner.
Her name is Jessica Nigri, FYI.
GOD’S WORK, BOPA!

This looks like the worst thing ever. Jenna Fischer made the right decision with James Gunn.
Really, Brandon? Did you play Shadows of the Damned? Sure, it looked both corny and cliched, but damned if it wasn’t fun. This looks to be more of the same, and I for one will be making a day one purchase. I’m honestly curious as to what makes this so awful, in your eyes.
So, it’s No More Heroes except with zombies and without Travis Touchdown.
Gotcha.
