Looking for a needle in a haystack

November 7, 2003 | 0 Comments

I have a headache. I want to see Kinji Fukasaku's infamous movie Battle Royale, especially since Chiaki Kuriyama (Go Go Yubari of "Kill Bill") was in it. But after looking at this Battle Royale fansite, I can't figure out which DVD version of that film I should get.

There are so many versions and none of them are perfect. Some have excellent transfer but no English subtitle, others have English subtitle but lousy transfer, etc. On top of it, when I was actually ready to make a purchase, I found out that the version that I want is already out of stock. Well, that's swell! Wonder if I should just buy the full-on Japanese version.
