The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.
The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.
This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.
If you're still having problems, try using 'Incognito mode' in your browser. On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.
IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

Plot – Spoilers:
There’s no humour in this final Guinea Pig flick but a lot more gore and splatter compared to the last few.
A painter is holed up in his room painting his memories and dwelling on boyhood nostalgia. He rarely steps out, but when he does, it’s usually to explore a sewer accessible through a manhole and which used to be a river back when he was a boy. A nosy couple who live in the floor below him are curious about him, and in particular, his wife who is believed to have left recently.
On one occasion while rummaging around in the tunnel, he comes across a mermaid whom he remembers having met as a boy in the river that ran through there. She too remembers him and he is filled with an overwhelming feeling of love and takes her home, housing her in a newly ordered tub.
For some reason, his destiny is to paint her and she constantly reminds him of this, even when he tries to nurse her after she develops a weird disease.



Okay, this one was really disgusting, but with a almost poetic,romantic story. Movies, just like only asians could create. Mixing Of Horror,Disgust, Humor and Romantic
It all makes sense that he was a schizophrenic except for that foreign fish scale. I thought this one was the silliest. 2 and a half stars.
truly beautiful!!
yummy
funnily enought i think the ending is just what exactly i think james sunderland experience was, having to deal with the decay of a loved one, killing and then fullfiling one wish so it could rest in peace… weird that i found this similarity in a guinea pig film, i didn’t expect to become one of the best ( being the 4th one in second place and the second in 3th)
it treats itself as a romantic film a dark twist, but i couldn’t expect to just be mesmerized by the whole deal, the whole movie is actually tricking you into thinking it is a mermaid and then said it was actually his wife
damn, that makes a second re-watch have more power than the first, is not common to see that execution nowadays!
i love that all the effects are raw, there is a lot of symbolism and is well paced. kudos to the director, is the most conventional with a good touch of passion and not just a weird experiment!
Honestly, the painting he made of her was actually pretty kickass. I’d wear that on a shirt.
im fine with blood or violence, but puss or inchor are diferent
She must have eaten something that’s upset her stomach.
This film made me laugh haha. She needs to see Dr Pimple Popper asap. I love that show
Disgusting i love it
Is that girl a mermaid???
Wow, I wasn’t expecting to feel so good about it. At first I was hesitant about watching it because it kind of gross me out, but I actually liked it! The special effects and the story, they were both great!
This was…surprisingly good, one of the only watchable Guinea Pig movies.
what happend at the end im so confused was she a mermaid or not
BLOODY WELL DONE
The most (or rather only) watchable film of the Guinea Pig Series by comic legend Hideshi Hino is a colorful gore fest about love, intimacy and insanity. It has the usual great special effects of the best films in this series that paint a dark fairy tail that will pull you into it’s bizarre world and bittersweet story.
Decent 9/10
The best in the series and the only one I would never dare to watch again. Hideshi Hino such a genius
Now I feel like some seafood
This is probably tied as my favorite in the series with the 5th one. Also, Jesus christ that neighbor girl is such a nosy fucking bitch. Like, mind your own fucking business you no life having cunt. The boyfriend was the only one with the common decency to mind his own business. I know it’s for exposition and plot development. But still, she’s incredibly annoying.
What an odd gem of a movie. Beautiful and grotesque with a twist of love
What the hell did i just watched the producer must be sick
Nice ending definitely a mind bender
And i thought i was a horror fanatic 1988 sum dark practical effects man
in my opinion, concept wise, this is the best guinea pig film! theres more than one plot twist and i think that makes it really awesome! im honestly a gore freak so it upsets me that there isnt THAT much gore but yeah i think concept wise this was a really amazing film! i like that it leaves it up to the viewers interpretation and makes you question what REALLY happened. for me personally i like to think about movies like this from a realistic point of view so i think that he really was schizophrenic and killed his sick pregnant wife in a psychotic break most likely. i did really really enjoy the sick gore scenes where it showed her just like completely dismembered as well as the parts where he seen her as a mermaid so she was just puking up the most disgusting shit youve ever seen. it makes you feel sick a little and its hard for me to find movies that do that so i really appreciated this one! i also like that theres a romantic aspect behind it all. the fact that he loved her enough to respect her last wishes even though it must of been hard for him to watch her gradually get worse and worse and all he could do was sit there and paint her. then he had to do the hardest thing anyone could ever do, he had to take his loved ones life unwillingly. but he loved her… Read more »
I liked how they let that little clue at the end that begs the question “was it real or fantasy?”. I was smelling the plotwist early in the movie but yet they kind of leave it to the viewer imagination.
With the bigger budget and better director, this could actually be a decent horror movie. shall we call it Mermaid & Moran?
I find this one quite romantic ngl.
Makes me feel nostalgic.
that was so lovely. so sad. I love the metaphor. and the worms, nice touch.
Reads like a poem. tied for me with the fourth in the series but for very different reasons. the mermaids got some nice bazoingas too
It was watchable but it felt a bit ‘other-worldly’ if that makes sense. Not humanly realistic so it doesn’t feel quite as raw.
Out of the Japanese guinea pig shorts, this was the only one I really liked enough to re-watch. It was both sad and disgusting. It was dis-touching.
This is the full movie, uncut.
Wish I could download it though…
Thank you for posting this one. It’s my favorite in the series and I kind of consider it a tragic romance with a horror twist despite the gore. I have a hard time finding the subs in the US. 🙁
