    Shakespeare's Shitstorm (stylized as #ShakespearesShitstorm) is a 2020 American musical comedy horror film written and directed by Lloyd Kaufman. Produced by Troma Entertainment, it is a contemporary parodyofWilliam Shakespeare's The Tempest.

    Plot[edit]

    After being betrayed by his treacherous sister Antoinette and pharmaceutical big shot Al, scientist Prospero Duke swears revenge.

    Cast[edit]

    Reception[edit]

    A reviewer for Consequence remarked that the film delivered the cheap look, dumb jokes and gross-out imagery which appeals to those with the taste of teenagers and for which Troma is known.[1] A reviewer for Dread Central said that the film provided horrible puns, disgusting gags and family fun.[2]
