Battle Royale, a film by the veteran Japanese director Kinji Fukasaku, tells the story of a dystopic future in which each year, a randomly-selected 9th grade class is kidnapped and sent to a deserted island where they are equipped with weapons and are forced to kill each other until one survivor is left. The movie, which premiered in Japan on December 16, 2000 amidst much controversy, is based on a bestselling novel by Koushun Takami.

Hell yeah! This is one of my absolute favorite movies ever.

* It's not senseless by the way. There's a strange method in the madness.
I also read the novel and it is also good.

If you liked Go-Go in Kill Bill, you'll like the girl played by the same actress in Battle Royale. Stab! Stab! Staaaab!!!
