“Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.” – Confucius
Runnerbird says: "I once heard someone say that vengeance and opposable thumbs are what separate us from the animals.

It is those tales that are set outside the legal system that have intrigued us the most. Perhaps we don’t like to admit it, but when our heroes seek and carry out their revenge, we love to cheer them on. Revenge films offer us a safe place to live out one of our basic human desires – to get even, the cost be damned. Here are some of notable revenge films that should satisfy your “eye for an eye” appetite."
