Conan the Barbarian meets the Bard of Avon in this very bloody version of Macbeth. A truly brilliant version of the play about a particularly brutal power struggle initiated by dark forces and played out for their own amusement. Great as a sword and socerey movie with a good script.

MACBETH (WELLES) (1948)
CertificationPG Our Rating
Welles's interpretation of Shakespeare's treacherous tale does have its faults, not surprisingly since it was shot on the cheap in just 23 days. However, the photography is superbly atmospheric, and the direction captures beautifully the moody, malevolent atmosphere of the barbarous setting.
