The movie was based on the Novel, which is explained everywhere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_Royale I just wasn't sure if it was ultimately, the Manga was the novel, but meh... Quote:
Why should it? As far as I know, it was a commerical success with a specific audience. |

That's pretty much my thoughts, and why I didn't consider it cult. Perhaps it's different in other countries. |
