NTSC/Region 0. Limited edition double DVD set featuring both Battle Royale films in one package. With the Japanese currently leading the way in thought-provoking cinematic violence it's only fitting that Kenta Fukasaku's Battle Royale is being touted as a Clockwork Orange for the 21st century. Imagine being sent to an island and forced to kill all of your classmates until only one survives (BR !) or better yet, being paired up with a partner in search of a killer and if one of you dies, the other is automatically killed (BR 2)? Whether you view these films as an important social commentary or simply enjoy the adrenalin fuelled violence, this is set to become cult viewing for the computer game generation and beyond. Star Max. 2007.
