Short description

Seiji Hasumi is a popular English teacher in a private high school. He is also a violent and sociopathic killer who concocts an extreme plan to deal with the rise of bullying and bad behavior among the student body.

What's left behind the scenes

The film is based on the novel "Aku no Kyoten" (literally "Lesson of Evil") by Yusuke Kishi (first published in the magazine "Betsatsu Bungeishunju" from July 2008 to July 2010, and then released in book form on July 30, 2010, by Bungeishunju publishing house).
