gramarye1971: a lone figure in silhouette against a blaze of white light (humphrey)

I stayed up till 2.30 last night watching a very strange film about Japanese schoolkids killing each other on an island. It was kind of hypnotic.

Battle Royale? I watched a poorly subtitled Hong Kong knock-off DVD of that, one of the ones where you were better off trying to read the Cantonese subs to figure out what was going on. But the character for 'death' is pretty universally recognisable. *shudders* That film gave me nightmares for days. And they've made a book and graphic novel series out of it, too.

Hm. Interesting. Wonder how that'll work?

That's the one. It was kind of nightmarish, but I couldn't stop watching it. I missed the beginning though, so I was a little bit confused, but it all came (sort of) clear in the end.
