Guinea Pig 3: He Never Dies

I thought this film's obvious brutal violence was lifted by two things:

1) the fact that unlike most other Ginipiggu films, the gore was all self-inflicted by the lead character, Hideshi, and 2) it really is a funny film. Seriously! I think the weird experiment of trying to make what is after all an incredibly manic and extreme film into a laff riot actually paid off. Not only does it lessen the nastiness to a tolerable excess, but it forces you to have sympathy with Hideshi and giggle along with him at his daft predicament. By the end credits, everyone involved is unable to keep a straight face. Easily my favourite of the series.

3rd part in the series of Japanese sickness. Like all the others, this is just plain vile but very funny at the same time.

This is in Japanese so all I can gather of the story is a guy likes a chick, she doesn't like him, so he becomes depressed and tries to kill himself. The only thing is he can't die (hence the title). See him mutilate himself while he has a smirk on his face. The best bit would have to be when he tries to slit his wrists, the blood stops and he just plays with his wound. All this with gut wrenching sound effects.

One of the best in the series!

I found this to be the most enjoyable of the Guinea Pigs I've viewed. It's light hearted good clean fun (okay so i'm exaggerating a smidge). A man is depressed and spends the entire movie trying to kill himself in hilarious ways. It's actually very upbeat, the music is amusingly inappropriate for a suicide situation. Basically it's a good little comedy that is only about 1 hour long about creative ways to commit suicide despite the fact that you just can't succeed. You don't even need subtitles to appreciate this little flick. As far as the Guinea Pig series goes, it's likely one of the least sadistic and bloodless, but the humour and character makes up for it entirely.

The previous Za ginipiggu movies were all quite serious movies, featuring as much blood and gore as possible, without serving a purpose- or try to tell a story really. This entry picks a more light approach, making this movie more like a comedy than anything else really. It makes the movie a more pleasant and entertaining watch, which in return also makes this a better and less pointless movie to watch than its predecessors.

Yes, of course the movie still features lots of blood, when a man tries to commit suicide in multiple different ways but fails each time. It makes the movie strangely morbidly funny. The guy is a looser, who can't even commit suicide right. It's comedy doesn't make its gore any less gory though, just more easy to handle.

Its different approach of things makes this definitely a better and as well a more entertaining movie to watch. It's still a pretty pointless movie but it's fun nonsense.

This absolutely hilarious (seriously!) gore flick documents the life of a bored businessman who just broke up with his sexy girlfriend. One evening in a fit of restlessness and depression he slits his wrists, only to find himself healthy again within minutes. He soon discovers that he will never die no matter what kind of mutilation and desecration he inflicts upon himself. Knowing this, our hero exacts revenge on his ex's new beau by grossing the poor guy out, making him witness all kinds of disgusting self-abuse, including having internal organs thrown at him. The gore is unbelievably realistic and stomach-churning, but at the same time it's so extreme and over-the-top that you know it's supposed to be humorous as well as repulsive. Definitely the funniest entry in the GUINEA PIG series. Also, be sure to stick around for the credits.
