BATTLE ROYALE [EXTENDED CUT]

At the dawn of the new millennium, Japan is in a state of near-collapse. Unemployment is at an all-time high, and violence amongst the nation's youth is spiraling out of control. With school children boycotting their lessons and physically abusing their teachers, a beleaguered and near-defeated government decides to introduce a radical new measure: the Battle Royale Act.

Overseen by a former teacher, Kitano ('Beat' Takeshi), and requiring that a randomly chosen school class be taken to a deserted island and forced to fight each other to the death, the Act dictates that only one pupil be allowed to survive the punishment. He or she will return, not as the victor, but as the ultimate proof of the lengths to which the government are prepared to go to curb the tide of juvenile disobedience.

BATTLE ROYALE 2: REQUIEM

It's the age of terrorism. Tokyo has been destroyed by a terrorist attack. The government concludes Shuuya Nanahara, the survivor of the Battle Royale 2 years ago, was responsible for the attack. A year after the destruction of Tokyo, Nanahara has become the leader of the terrorist group Wild Seven. He declares war against all grown-ups who forced him and his classmates to kill each other. Meanwhile, the government order the creation of the Battle Royale II act.

They send a class of notorious junior-high students to an isolate island where the Wild Seven have built their fortress. The mission is engaged with 3 rules. 1. The goal is to kill Nanahara. 2. They have 3 days to carry out the mission. 3. They have to work in pairs. If one of the pair dies, another is automatically killed by explosion. - This time it's war. Directed by Kenta Fukasaku who completed the film after his father, Kinji, passed away.

Technically, regarding the BR box set, it's "all in Korean" as that is simply a Korean release of Japanese films...
