Revengers Tragedy



Revengers Tragedy (2002) – Here’s an over-the-top, blackly comic Jacobean revenge-em-up done decently well (if rather campily); it’s got good performances by the leads and an interesting synth score by Chumbawamba, but the anachronism and androgynous punk style place it squarely in the shadow of Taymor’s Titus; I leave the film with two questions: what’s the deal with the video game spellcasting wipe noises, and where’s the apostrophe? 6
