GREAT movie! The reason you have such a hard time finding this one is because of the rights issue. I did a video interview with Stephen Biro, who is the owner of Unearthed Films. He approached the original company about purchasing the right for North American distro. They had tried to get a bigger company, but people began whispering in the ear of the film makers about how american parents would target them in lawsuits because of the kid on kid violence.
If you remember, this film was made right before Columbine, so that scared the film makers away from selling the american rights to the film. It really is a shame, because the film has a good political and horror theme to it!
REST IN PEACE!
