Finally saw the first live-action movie.
It's kind of "Lord of the Flies" meets "The Lottery" meets Richard Bachman's "The Long Walk."
Not my cuppa but I've seen worse. Wasn't all that bad but it reminded me of several different movies, and altho I like Beat Takeshi, I thought his inclusion and the way his role was written was a little self-indulgent.
It was a disturbing movie, but I don't know what the big fuss was all about.
At least there wasn't (to quote Twisted Kaijuu Theatre) a "curse chock full of grey squirmy people" in it...
"And I ain't in it for the power,
And I ain't in it for my health
I ain't in it for the glory of anything at all
And I sure ain't in it for the wealth
But I'm in it till it's over and I just can't stop
If you wanna get it done,
You gotta do it yourself..."
Meat Loaf, Everything Louder Than Everything Else
