Cape Fear is phenomenal. I wrote a term paper on it last year.

The Death-Wish movies are decent at best, but I'm partial to anything with Charles Bronson in it.

*SPOILER ALERT*

Much of the plot that unfolds in Snatch is a result of Pitt's character's plan for revenge over his ma's murder.

Fritz Lang's FURY (1936) starring Spencer Tracy and Sylvia Sidney is a great 'revenge' flick.

Kill Bill stands as the greatest Revenge story ever seen by my eyes.

Not the greatest movie, but as a revenge story, i cant think of one that tops it no matter how far i go back. From beginning to end, The Bride was in the single minded pursuit of ending life.

The Crow, Road to Perdition, Man on Fire, and Rambo are all ace picks as well.

Some great revenge flicks there, and another one seems to be heading to cinema's soon Four Brothers starring Mark Wahlberg, about 4 brothers who seek revenge on those who killed their mother, looks to be quite good.

sin city is definately the great. stylish,l plenty of substance, great performances, great visuals, truly stunning, but it was so much more than a revenge flick. so my best true revenge flick would be man on fire. denzel and walken are both incredible in these roles, especially walken who took a more dramtic role instead of the more eccentric roles he has taken in his old age

That was hilarious LOL!:) :) :) !

Mario Van Peebles was in that? I don't remember him.

Greatest revenge film for me?

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan!

"Khan...I'm laughing at your superior intellect."
"Are you familiar with the Klingon proverb that says revenge is a dish best served cold?"

Yeah, baby!:cool:
