It's been three years since Battle Royale's survivors Nanahara and Noriko escaped from the island and the world has descended into an age of terrorism. The wild seven led by Nanahara is an anti-state organisation that has declared war upon the adults that force teenagers to kill each other under the murderous BR Act. Fearful and desperate the government has now passed a Millennium Anti-Terrorism Act better known as BRII. On their way to a ski vacation a coach load of Junior High School children are abducted by the military and forced to put on uniforms with lethal explosive necklaces. They are given 72 hours to hunt down and kill Nanahara and the Wild Seven or they will face certain death at the hands of the authorities. This explosive and much anticipated sequel to Kinji Fukusaku's celebrated and controversial original seriously ups the ante both in terms of bloody violence and dark social satire. This is one war on terror that will definitely get your vote.

This time it's war! Louder longer even more brutal! Battle Royale 2 gets an extended version! Three years after the events of the original Battle Royale the survivor of the game Shuya Nanahara is now an internationally-known terrorist and leading his group known as Wild Seven is determined to bring down the government. To counter this new threat the government enacts the New Century Terrorist Counter - Measure Alternative program (a.k.a. the Battle Royale II act) and sends the forty-two students of Shikanotoride Junior High Class 3-B to hunt Nanahara and his cohorts down in their island stronghold. Shiori Kitano the daughter of the late headmaster of Nanahara's first Battle Royale signs up for the program to avenge her father. In order for the government to study the benefits of teamwork the new students are forced to work in pairs with their collars electronically linked so that if one of them is killed the other dies as well. They must kill Nanahara in three days or die... Director Kinji Fukasaku died during the making of the film and so it fell to his son Kenta to complete this apocalyptic vision in the process turning it into an even bigger box-office smash than the original in Japan. Liberally soaked in black humour and satirical comments on current world affairs the fight for survival is on!
