Lollipop Chainsaw Getting Unexpected Remake In 2023

Peter Paltridge Lollipop Chainsaw, Suda 51, video games 6

Approximately ten years ago, a weird little game was released for PS3 and XBox 360 that called itself Lollipop Chainsaw. It was the brainchild of Suda51, the twisted game maker behind the No More Heroes series — but he had help. More on that help in a minute. The game is about a chainsaw-wielding, lollipop-sucking 18-year-old zombie slayer named Juliet Starling. She comes from a family of zombie slayers and the undead have just invaded her high school. To give one example of this thing’s sense of humor (one of the more clean things we can mention), Juliet has managed to save her boyfriend’s life by detaching his head from his body via a magic spell and wearing it on her hip throughout the adventure. There is a boss battle where someone yells curse words at you, they literally become comic book words and Juliet must somersault over them. Lollipop Chainsaw is….nuts.

Lollipop Chainsaw is an interesting game. Before launch it garnered a lot of attention from the media for its sexualized main character, Juliet Starling, a cheerleader who happily vivisects hordes of zombies while snacking on lollipops. Now that the game has hit store shelves and the hubbub has died down a little, does Suda 51’s latest mind trip offer more than just eye candy to the discerning gamer? Lets get to it. We’re gonna get this out of the way as soon as possible. Yes, Juliet is quite the looker and the game doesn’t shy away from panty flashes and sex jokes, but honestly, it’s nothing you haven’t seen before in most PG-13 movies marketed at teenagers. There is some perversion on dispaly, such as with Juliet’s aging teacher Morikawa and his frequent comments about her underwear and lapdance classes, but it’s a chaste sort of perversion without any nudity or mean-spirited exploitation. Alright, now that we’re done with that lets get what’s actually important, like the gameplay and story. Lollipop Chainsaw
