6 Historic Acts of Revenge cracked

There's nothing like the vaguely sadistic pleasure of a good revenge movie, from Uma Thurman hacking the limbs off the entire Japanese mafia to any of the 36 vengeance-crazed madmen Mel Gibson has played. But it's all fantasy, right? Real people don't go on a Payback-style path of destruction when they're wronged.

Well, maybe you should consider...


I'm not much of a historian, but did my best at researching this article and it seems to
check out. I found the Celtic woman Boudicca particularly intriguing.

Not even close Wwen, you need a minimum of a five figure body count to make that list.

Dude! The Trung Sisters' Kung Fu Rebellion...that would make an AWESOME movie!! Why on earth hasn't anyone done that?? Or maybe there is a foreign movie already done? If there is I would love to see it, or read a book about it...it fascinates me. Giving birth on the battlefield and continuing to fight with your just-born infant on your back?
Heck yeah!!

"Pot plant" and "potted plant" have very different connotations. Which one did you mean? :D

Yeah, my wife is way into Boudicca. Will have to check this out from home, though. Cracked is somehow not work-appropriate.
