Macbeth
Something wicked this way comes.
Directed by Geoffrey Wright
Produced by Australian Film Finance Corporation, Film Victoria
A violent, high-octane crime retelling of Macbeth that trades medieval tragedy for modern gang warfare, driven by ambition and paranoia.
Macbeth, loyal to his crime boss, Duncan, is told by witches that he will one day take over. Driven by their prophecy, he and his wife plot to kill Duncan, and takes the leadership of the gang for himself. Maintaining his power will require more murder and violence, finally driving his surviving enemies to unite and destroy him. A sexy, high octane retelling of this classic story.
