Tromeo & Juliet (1996)


“Parting is such sweet sorrow.”

“Totally sucks.”

Forget Baz Luhrmann’s flashy Romeo + Juliet, this is the modern take for our times. Hosted by Lemmy of Motörhead (?), this excessively violent and sexually charged loose adaptation of the classic play would have made Shakespeare proud...or something. About as close to romantic as Troma will ever get, with a lovely little twist at the end. This falls under the category of “Is nothing sacred?”
