Body

In the near future, the economy has collapsed, unemployment has soared, and juvenile crime has exploded. 

Fearful of their nation's youth, the Japanese government passes The BR Law: Each year, a 9th grade class is sent to a remote island where they will be locked into exploding neck collars, given a random weapon, and forced to hunt and kill each other until there is only one survivor left. 

Chiaki Kuriyama (Kill Bill) and screen legend Takeshi Kitano (Boiling Point, Brother) star in the movie that has been argued, acclaimed, and banned around the world. More than a decade later, it remains one of the most savage, shocking, and emotionally powerful films of all time.
