Making love to the camera

If you figured that Mondo Zappa’s glasses were just for fashion, you were wrong.

Lollipop Chainsaw Piles On The Stupidity, Introduces Antagonist Swan

Ignore Lollipop Chainsaw's antagonist Swan's similarities to The Cure frontman Robert Smith, because it definitely ain't like heaven at San Romero High School

As previous trailers have established, Lollipop Chainsaw is a zombie game with a bubblepop twist. Could there be a more fitting bad-guy than a misunderstood high-school goth? Sure, Lollipop Chainsaw looks absolutely stupid, but that's what..
