![]() ![]() While the story itself is absolutely amazingly ridiculous, there is a lot of internal consistency that speaks well for the designers going in, as Juliet regains health with lollipops, a craving she mentions in the opening cinematic, has a bad ass dirty old Japanese sushi chef as a master, and is just a very happy, perky individual throughout everything despite the circumstances. The setting itself is based out of a fictional California city, San Romero, and that’s just where the goofy references begin. Juliet herself also has a girl power/pop music theme with songs like Mickey, Lollipop, and Cherry Bomb accompanying much of her action. The characters are varied and make for an entertaining ride. Each of the Dark Purveyors stages has a distinct and enjoyable theme, such as sports, drugs, or video games, and they themselves represent different kinds of music, including punk rock, techno/funk, and Viking metal. Swan’s plan consists of a ritual involving five Dark Purveyors each of which serves as a boss for the first five stages of the game, with an after-the-fact-obvious twist resulting in a huge boss fight for the sixth and final stage. Aided by her zombie hunting family (sisters, Cordelia and Rosalind and father, Giddeon) and her boyfriend, Nick’s, head (Nick was bit during the prologue level and Stage one opens after Juliet performed a ritual to save his head, he spends most of his time attached to the back of her hip so we get a convenient angle for fan service shots), Juliet will fight through hordes of zombies to stop disenfranchised goth kid Swan’s plan for bringing the Rotten World to Earth and watching everyone else suffer. On her 18th birthday, zombie hunter Juliet Starling’s life is interrupted by a full blown zombie apocalypse. Now it’s time for a Major Spoilers look at the game itself.

Gunn said on Twitter last year that neither he nor Suda are involved with the new version, adding that "I neither endorse nor condemn it! I simply don’t know anything about it." The remake is going forward without two of the key creative forces behind the original game: filmmaker James Gunn and game designer Goichi 'Suda51' Suda. ![]() However, we were unfortunately unable to include 16 of the licensed songs, which were a great part of the original game's feel, and so we are instead aiming for a remake that is as close as possible to a remaster." ![]() "Of course, the ideal thing to do would be to make a remastered version of the original game, changing nothing. "The primary goal of the Lollipop Chainsaw remake project is to make it so that players who wish to play Lollipop Chainsaw can do so easily, not to make a new Lollipop Chainsaw game," producer Yoshimi Yasuda said at the time. ![]()
