No, not another wrestling thread, but a Japanese film that i watched t'other night. Quite gory, and difficult to watch in places, but really good. Ace twist at the end. Also, starring Gogo from Kill Bill Part 1 "Ninth grade students are taken to a small isolated island with a map, food and various arms. They have to fight each other three days long until the last one remains and are forced to wear a special collar which will explode when they break a rule." http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0266308/.......Really getting into Japanese cinema these days....anything anyone would like to recommend?

Not a huge fan of the chinese/japanese films (especially the manga stuff) but battle royale is a quality film.

I wasn't to keen on the sound of it when a mate described it to me, but I watched it anyway and thought it was really good..... Anyone seen the sequel?

Battle Royale is one of my favourite films of all time. Battle Royale 2 is not quite as good but still well worth a watch

.......Really getting into Japanese cinema these days....anything anyone would like to recommend? battle royale was really good... they made a sequel too that i haven't yet seen. a similar take on the "reality tv gone wrong" theme is "series 7: the contenders", although it's not japanese. try and see "infernal affairs" (a cop mole and a mob mole try and smoke each other out)... then there's "ong bak" (thai), "old boy" (korean), or if you like world cinema in general then you need to see "amores perros", "city of god", or any film by pedro almodovar. that should keep you going for a while.

BR is a great film and the twist at the end is great.
Will have to watch it again sometime - I think I watched it about a year ago
