Don't you remember the lesbians in the original?

Juliet: Parting is such sweet sorrow.
Tromeo: Totally sucks.

William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet... in modern day New York. And, you know, with a little artistic license taken (it's a Troma movie, after all). Written by a young James Gunn.

This movie contains examples of:

Tromeo: Maybe both of us are warped.

  • Fan Service: It's a Troma film, topless girls had to appear.
  • Filth: The Capulets and Ques are porn mogul.s
  • Fingore: A sex scene goes from "I love fingers" to cutting them with a machete.

The Cinema Snob: Looks like this was done when the writer learned foreshadowing, but not subtlety.
