If you know Troma, you are fully aware of what to expect however this movie provides an over deliverance on all expectations.
Lloyd has said that this is very likely his last movie and Shakespeare Shitstorm very much encapsulates the energy of a director giving his loyal fanbase a grand finale that they will not soon forget.
The movie takes aim at cancel culture, social justice warriors and the daily outrage we see in modern times. Whilst these are themes we generally see ridiculed by right wing media, Lloyd approaches it in a manner that highlights how the public focusing on the trivial issues rather than the wider problems actually divides people further.
Kate McGarrigle was a real standout with a strong performance demonstrating perfect comedic timing. Additionally, Monique Dupree was fantastic and I can see them both landing roles in major productions and continuing the tradition of Troma alumni graduating into stardom.
Insane amount of blood, effects that delight and disgust and incredible amounts of whale fecal matter with surprising levels of corn. Sex, drugs and rock and roll.
