Editorial
Taking Tarantinoesque bloodshed to operatic extremes, this notorious vigilante shoot-‘em-up became a bona fide cult hit when rumors of its carnage spread through the video stores of the late 1990s. Love it or hate it, its absurd zeal—and Willem Dafoe’s camp theatrics—are impossible to ignore.
