The sequel to Kinji Fukasaku’s cult sensation—begun by the veteran director but completed by his son Kenta Fukasaku following his death—was no less controversial thanks to its incendiary, boldly anti-American political themes. Three years after the Battle Royale of the first film, the survivors have formed a terrorist outfit known as the Wild Seven with the intent of bringing down the Japanese government. In response, the regime recruits a new crop of deadly high school students to hunt down and kill the rebels.
