17.5.11

Spotted Battle Royale on the TV tonight so decided to give it a gander. I have seen it a few times (the first time under protest - Sarah had wanted to see it so we rented it from the video shop. I grumped and groaned about subtitles but ended up really enjoying it. Sarah fell asleep part way through).
For anyone who hasn't seen it or heard of it, it's a Japanese film. The basic story line is that teenagers have got too big for their boots and the adults have passed a law that makes it acceptable for them to drug the kids, put them on an island where they have to battle to the death until only one teenager survives. It really is worth a watch if only for the cringy script and questionable 'special effects'.
