Imagine a futuristic society (but doesn't look like Blade Runner) where overpopulation and juvenile crime is at an all time high...then they have this great idea to stage a fight to the death where 9th graders are dumped on an island to fight it out unitl one is left...and to ensure no ones tries to help the others, they are equipped with exploding collars...You gotta hand it to the Japanese...an American movie company wouldn't have the balls to make a movie like this. The schoolgirl shootout is one of the most disturbing things I've seen...you'll never look at asian schoolgirl content the same way again. While I don't necessarily advocate piracy, do what it takes to see this movie (since it's currently unavialable in the US. Maybe we can form a cartel to buy up the distribution rights to this gem of a movie. It's not for everyone's tastes and surely any form of release in the States would be met with a lot of protests. Damn good flick. Check it out.

You can download it on Kazaa, with subtitles.
