Porky's Revenge? Revenge of the the Nerds?...

Well, maybe...

2 that instantly hit me are Kill Bill and Man on Fire, I prefer Kill Bill more though.

erm....not much more that I can think of personally, V for Vendetta was a great movie as well.

haha Rocky IV is actually a very good suggestion.

Discos - "You vill lose"

Irreversible

No love for Punisher?

Hamlet is # 1.

I'd say: 8mm, Johnny Handsome, Batman, Conan the Barbarian, High Plains Drifter, Revenge, Get Carter, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, are pretty good revenge flicks.

The Count of Monte Cristo (2002) is my all-time favorite revenge flick.

Am I the only one here who hated Kill bill?

Anyone have any info on Straw Dogs? I've never seen or heard of it.

likewise.. man on fire was the shiznit. love KB1. never go that into KB2. maybe it was the soundtrack. "battle without honor or humanity" and "twisted nerve" are two of the most reconizable tunes ever.

also, robocop come to mind. we need a new robocop movie. not a remake though, a sequel.. cause the sequels suck, especially the 3rd one.

lol ok then

Punisher.

I'm actually impressed to see the Crow and Count of Monte Cristo on that list.

I agree with Mild Possession. Man on Fire and Old Boy should definitely up there.

mad max also deserves a nod
