Shakespeare + Troma = Gold
Added 6/17/2009
If you ever sit and think to yourself "Shakespeare is a good writer and all, but sometimes I wish his plays weren't so high-falootin'. Why don't they ever have gore, or tits, or monsters?" well then, this sir (or madam) this is the film for you. Tromeo and Juliet is a Tromatized retelling of Shakespeare's classic Romeo and Juliet. If you're not familiar with Troma, what this means is basically taking the bard's tale and making it as trashy, low class, and low budget as possible, and I'll be damned if it doesn't work like magic. Great effects (especially for the budget), great violence, and plenty of sex make this one more than worth checking out.

This film was exactly what I expected. It is Shakespeare sneaking out of the gutter. It is refreshing to see a modern and more visceral take on a classic.

Tromeo And Juliet
Added 3/2/2009
This is easily one of the best Troma Team productions in recent years!! I found it to be funny and also surprisingly touching in some parts. Not to mention that Lemmy as the Narrator is supremely funny. So if you like Troma, or even art films, this is a title you will probably enjoy

excellent troma movie!
Added 7/28/2007
tromeo & juliet is twisted and hilarious! its a troma favorite of mine and i could watch it again & again. this could only have came from the mind of Lloyd Kaufman of course. (toxic avenger, class of nuke 'em high, terror firmer...) so if you are looking for an outrageous movie because you're tired of crappy hollywood flicks you swear you've already seen before, then you should check out this title by troma.
