| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Battle Royale (Original title: バトル・ロワイアル - read as: Batoru rowaiaru) is the 2000 Japanese feature film adaptation of the controversial 1999 Japanese novel of the same name by Koushun Takami, who later published a 3,000 page illustrated manga version of the story. The premise of the film revolves around "The Program", a government-sponsored event which forces randomly selected junior high school students who are armed with various weapons to eliminate each other until there is one remaining survivor. The film would spawn a 2003 sequel: Battle Royale II: Requiem.
The following weapons were used in the film Battle Royale:
