The Guinea Pig films are a series of seven controversial 1980s Japanese exploitation gore-horror films. The series achieved global notoriety mostly for the first two films, which were mondo-inspired fake documentaries painstakingly shot and edited to resemble true snuff films.The tapes gained notoriety in Japan during the late 1980s and early 1990s when the fourth film of the series ("Mermaid in a Manhole") was found showcased in the 5,763 videotape collection of Japanese serial killer Tsutomu Miyazaki. It was erroneously reported originally as being the second film of the series. It was widely but mistakenly believed that Miyazaki re-enacted the snuff scene from the second film as a part of his crimes. Because of the initial controversy surrounding the series, the series went out of production in Japan and is a collector's item which commands a high premium. However, the entire series has since been reissued on DVD in the United States, the Netherlands and in Austria and can be imported to Japan.
