At least be open-minded and try it before you shrug off the series completely. Also, I'd definitely read the books before seeing the movie (I know that everyone always says that but I feel that, as someone who appreciates horror, you will enjoy the books more).
I can love both The Hunger Games and Battle Royale separately - Two different worlds, two different sets of characters.

I don't want to come off as close minded by any means. Perhaps I will give it a try. I guess I just get upset when something like this catches on so much with people who have either never heard of Battle Royale or would not read it for stupid reasons.
As for Come and See. I have not even heard of that. However, if you are interested in Soviet films, are you a fan of Stalker?
