Batoru rowaiaru (Battle Royale)

Batoru rowaiaru (2000)
Dir: Kinji Fukasaku

A class of students are sent to an island and forced to kill each other in a game of survival.
Brilliant, disturbing and totally fascinating this is one of the best films ever to come from Japan. The story is great and the characters are really well acted. It manages to be thought-provoking too and despite having no real scares it's extremely gory. A truly amazing film that is superbly made.
