His family fell into poverty, while the Duke, Duchess (DIANA QUICK) and their decadent sons acquired wealth and power. Today, Vindici returns. With the help of his brother Carlo (ANDREW SCHOFIELD), he sets about the destruction of the Duke and his entire clan. But it will not be easy. The Duke is well-protected; and his villainous first-born, Lussurioso (EDDIE IZZARD), is determined to seduce Vincici's sister -- Castiza (CARLA HENRY). When the Duke's youngest son is imprisoned for the rape of a beautiful aristocrat, Imogen (SOPHIE DAHL), Vindici sees an opportunity to test his mother and his sister, and to secure his revenge.

Reviews for Revengers Tragedy
Cox is laughing and enjoying all the twisted ridiculousness of it all.
Probably destined to join Cox's other films (Sid and Nancy, Repo Man) as a cult favorite.
Could use a few things -- like, I dunno, maybe life, skill, comprehension and the wisdom of knowing that jokes and a sense of humour are not the same thing.
A gloriously over-the-top revenge comedy-drama that could attract a cult following.
