Movie Steak

Asian cinema is just mental. And we love it because of it. Battle Royale is a Japanese (I think it’s Japanese anyway) and the basic plot is that there was a law past which created this thing called Battle Royale in which is a class is selected, sent to an island and are forced to battle to the death until only one remains.

They all have explosives round their necks so that they can’t just do nothing and are given an array of weapsons from semi-automatics and shutguns to pan lins and binoculars (and other such pretty useless crap when other people have swords and guns). As you can image, it is a total gore fest.

It does tend to get a bit, one kill after another but overall it’s a sorted movie if your into watching people get brutually killed. It’s not like it’s over the top buckets of blood either, just enough to make it hidiously gorey.
