Terence Bayler

A graphically violent version of the classical Shakespearian play about a murderously ambitious couple in debt to witchcraft and prophesies. Polanski's MACBETH is certainly the most inspired in its recreation of the cold barbaric spirit of the play's original setting.

A reluctant would-be messiah embarks on several misadventures and rises to prominence as a result of a series of absurd and hilarious circumstances.
