Description

To cap off a pretty violent year, we’re talking about a pretty violent film with the mother of all death game movies – 2000’s Battle Royale. It was The Hunger Games before The Hunger Games that cemented itself as one of the most influential films of the aughts and beyond. If you still haven’t seen it, make that correction then change into your school uniform and grab your randomly assigned weapon as we’re talking about the problem with soju (it’s too good), our strategies for beating the game, the madness of the 2023 documentary The Contestant, and so much more in this jam-packed episode. 

Battle Royale stars Tatsuya Fujiwara, Aki Maeda, Tarō Yamamoto, Chiaki Kuriyama, Kou Shibasaki, Masanobu Andō, and Beat Takeshi. Directed by Kinji Fukasaku.
