Battle Royal: Japanese Films Kick's Ass!

Battle Royal

You thought the Hunger Games were good wait until you check out Battle Royal.  This Japanese Film made its debut in 2000, before the hunger games, and it is currently available to watch on Netflix.

I happen to watch it and it became an instant favorite of mine, It's monstrously Good.  Here's the premise from IMBD:

In the future, the Japanese government captures a class of ninth-grade students and forces them to kill each other under the revolutionary "Battle Royale" act.

The act came to be after 800 students walked out of class and now they are forced to kill one another in 3 days with a collar around their necks that will detonate if they don't participate.  This movie was amazing and even though i had to read the subtitles, i still enjoyed it.

I would say give it a watch and check out the trailer below.
