Product Description
Lollipop Chainsaw is a hack-and-slash, single player Action game in which players battle zombies as never before - in the form of the spirited, chainsaw-wielding, cheerleader heroine, Juliet Starling. The game contains an addictive mixture of mature zombie apocalypse gameplay, juxtaposed with the bubbly actions and attitude of the perky teen heroine. Additional features include, upgradable cheerleading abilities and chainsaws that both serve in combat, over-the-top zombie rock lord bosses, a storyline full of hooks, and a rockin' soundtrack.
Put girl power, and a chainsaw to use like never before.

So Sweet You Can Just Die
Lollipop Chainsaw is the 'un-deadly' story of sweet and killer zombie-hunter Juliet Starling and her quest to uncover the root of a colossal zombie outbreak. With her wickedly awesome chainsaw in hand, Juliet slices, dices and splits her way through hordes of the undead, but soon realises the horde is only the opening act to a festival of zombie rock lords determined to kill the chainsaw-wielding cheerleader.
Lollipop Chainsaw is being developed by Grasshopper Manufacture, led by celebrated game developer Goichi Suda (aka SUDA 51) and featuring the musical compositions of the renowned Akira Yamaoka. In addition, Hollywood director and writer James Gunn (Super, Slither, Dawn of the Dead, Tromeo and Juliet) has brought his cult humor and edgy storytelling to Lollipop Chainsaw's script.
Gameplay
Lollipop Chainsaw is an action game unlike any other. To combat and kill zombie enemies, players utilise a combination of available attacks. Light attacks, in the form of punches, kicks and the like can be used in taking on small numbers of enemies, or to maneuver enemies into the most convenient position when faced with a numerical disadvantage. Stronger attacks against single or multiple enemies are unleashed using Juliet's devastating chainsaw. Even stronger advanced attacks are possible by filling up Juliet's star meter. The decapitated, but quite alive severed head of Juilet's boyfriend Nick can be used in attacks as well, and success in attacks allows for the upgrade of Juliet's chainsaw.
Key Game Features
- A New Kind of Killer Heroine - Juliet Starling is an 18-year-old student with a dark secret - zombie-hunting with a killer chainsaw in hand. Juliet must balance the drama of high school while carrying out her zombie-hunting lineage.
- Gameplay Design - Celebrated game developer SUDA 51 brings his unique creative style and vision to the gameplay design, taking players through a wild ride of zombies, chainsaws, and rainbows.
- Edgy Storyline - Through an adapted script by James Gunn, Juliet must uncover the root of a colossal zombie outbreak at her school, San Romero High, but soon realises the horde isn't quite what it seems and is targeting her more than most.
- Combat/Weapons - Players will hone their cheerleading acrobatics and chainsaw skills to string together devastating combo moves, taking out hordes of the undead.
- Zombie Rock Lords - San Romero High's zombie jocks and undead faculty are the least of Juliet's concerns when she soon realises that she faces a bigger challenge, zombie rock lords that add a new beat' to SUDA 51's over-the-top boss battles.
- Head Bangin' Music - With original music created by popular video game composer Akira Yamaoka (best known for the Silent Hill series) and other notable artists, Lollipop Chainsaw features a soundtrack that's to die for. In addition to original music, Juliet's playlist will also include familiar songs from various musical genres.

I rented this from Lovefilm, because I wanted to try it but thought it sounded utterly naff.
I played through it once , then immediately went on-line and purchased a copy of my own. I've NEVER rented a game and then bought it before.
I mean, come on, what's not to like: hordes of zombies, utterly bizarre end-of-level badies; fun and challenging mini-games (in one case almost TOO challenging); and hilariously unexpected one-liners that you definitely won't want to play when your granny, mum, sister, wife or girlfriend are in the room. And that's before I even mention the scantily clad, Madder-than-a-Hatter heroine in her little cheerleader outfit (or less, if you save up your reward medals and switch to something even skimpier. And her two mad sisters and Dad.
Oh, and her boyfriend, who unfortunately had to have his body amputated. By the chainsaw.
Utterly bananas, but the most fun I've had at my Playstation in a long time.
With lots of special attacks, perks, and difficulty levels to master, this game has a lot of replay value.
In short, super fun, if you're not too easily offended.

I have to get something out of the way right now - how do like 90% of so called professional reviewers manage to not see the pure fun and genius of this game? Seriously, take Buffy the vampire slayer, cut out the angst, bung it into a big old grindhouse model blender then chuck in enough psychedelic colour in there to make a unicorn spew a shower of tie-dyed chunder, mix liberally with oodles of equally colourful language and a massive dose of OTT violence and you got yourself a perfect formula for the sweetest lollipop you're ever gonna taste! Read on to see what you'll love about grasshopper's latest bucket of ludicrous and what might tweak your teats about it in this handy, bite-sized, review!
THE GENIUS:
(+) This game is as inventive as they come - sure at its chewy core it's a beat 'em up as old as Double Dragon but there is so much nuttiness, chainsaw pole-dancing, graphical strangeness and zombie head pummelling that it just feels like one big blast! This is the gaming equivalent of getting drunk dumb with your best buddies and watching the cheesiest b-movie marathon this side of mystery science theatre 3000 and having an absolute riot!
(+) The graphical flair is insane, this is not to say the graphics are amazing because they are not, they're also not a complete dog either, but the sheer amount of inventiveness is superb. From the screen being split into two bloody chunk as you chainsaw a boss to pieces to an elevator from heaven coming down replete with 2d-cut out looking cherubs just has to be seen!
(+) The combat, contrary to what a lot of reviews say, is massively gratifying. Whether you are chopping a zombie in half from crotch to wig or simply decapitating a whole row of baddies in a plume of gore and rainbows it just feels nice and chunky.... Read more ›

Lollipop Chainsaw seemed like my kind of game. A sassy female protagonist? Zombies? A completely bonkers storyline? Sign me up!
Sadly it did not live up to my expectations. Sure, it looks pretty, the soundtrack is awesome and it does have some funny moments but the hack/slash gameplay style is not my cup of tea and I found it to be a frustrating and repetitive round of button mashing. I also didn't love Juliet, the protagonist, her voice got really annoying fast. The humour is fairly childish and that is not a bad thing but the jokes did get old pretty fast. I feel a bit let down.
If you like hack/slash games you might find more to love than I did, but I personally think this is a title that you should rent and not buy. I wanted to like it but it just didn't do it for me.

I'll take your brain to another dimension read this review & pay full attention
The trailer to this game doesn't show you just how really rubbish it is,you'd have thought that having 6 Resident Evil games would be more than enough zombie games but oh no obviously thats not enough for some people so what happens "Lollipop Chainsaw" unfortunately.once you've played this game you'll realise that you've probably seen every part of this game somewhere else before on another game it's just lots of games stuck together very poorly,tastefully doo offer and that just isn't enoughne this aint,someone somewhere thought that people would be rushing out to buy this zombie slayer game because the lead character was a cheerleader,running around school killing lots of zombies with a chainsaw and thats really all this game has to offer and that just isn't enouigh.someone else said in their review that they fell in love with this game after watching the trailer.either they have some serious mental problems or they must have seen a different trailer to the one I watched because the one I saw was seriously crap.if you don't believe me check out the trailer on youtube.
