It should be noticed that the book is not in the ordinary sense pornography. Unlike most books that deal in sexual sadism, it lays the emphasis on the cruelty and not the pleasure... The real high-spots of the book are cruelties committed by men upon other men, above all, the third-degreeing of the gangster, Eddie Schultz, who is lashed into a chair and flogged on the windpipe with truncheons, his arms broken by fresh blows as he breaks loose.

"Several years ago, I obtained a video under the title Guinea Pig. It's commentary said that "This is a report of an experiment on the breaking point of bearable pain and the corrosion of people's senses...", but it was, in fact, an exhibition of devilish cruelty as 3 perpetrators severely abused a woman."
