Both Audition and Battle Royale are great pieces of cinema. Like was said before, the less you know about Audition before you see it, the better. But, basically it will lull you into a false sense of security before presenting you with an onslaught of unsettling imagery. Check out other Miike Takashi (the director of Audition, who pumps out at least 3 films every year) films if you want to see some glorious Asian movies, which often defy genre, aswell as the senses. Battle Royale is simply one of the best movies ever, and everyone should own a copy of it. Kids thrown together on an island, given a weapon each, and told to kill each other. And the evil transfer student is a manga villain braught to life on the screen :o
