Lloyd Kaufman’s Shakespeare’s Sh*tstorm is a gleefully unhinged, gore-soaked parody that drags The Bard kicking and screaming into the toxic wasteland of Tromaville, New Jersey. When the sorcerer Prospero (in his most unhinged form) lures a boatload of sleazy pharmaceutical executives to his polluted island, he has a savage reckoning in mind—one filled with mutant creatures, bodily fluids, and a storm of pure cinematic chaos. Kaufman’s trademark DIY splatter and crude humor are on full display, creating an atmosphere that shifts from laugh-out-loud absurd to genuinely creepy in the flick of a severed limb. It’s a wild, messy ride that fans of Troma’s unique brand of horror-comedy will relish, as long as they check their dignity at the door and brace for a sh*tstorm unlike any other.

User Reviews
“It's a Troma movie, so you know what you're getting: cheap thrills, over-the-top gore, and zero shame. I loved the insane take on The Tempest and the practical effects were delightfully gross. Not for the faint of heart, but if you're into splatter comedies, this is a blast.”
“I'm a huge Shakespeare nerd and a horror fan, so I was really hoping for something clever. The idea is fun, but the execution felt messy and some jokes landed flat. There are a few funny moments and the gore is decent, but it doesn't quite deserve high praise.”
“As a die-hard Troma fan, this is exactly what I want: Lloyd Kaufman pushing boundaries and laughing at itself. The atmosphere is so wonderfully trashy and the mutant puppets are hilarious. It might be a masterpiece of schlock, and I'm here for it!”
“I tried to get into it, but the humor felt too juvenile for my taste and the 'scares' were more gross than scary. The acting is intentionally bad, which is part of the charm for some, but for me it just didn't work. Probably only for hardcore Troma enthusiasts.”
