Een 'Troma'-versie van het bekende romantische Shakespeare vertelling. Door een onenigheid in de porno-industrie leven de rivaliserende families Que en Capulet op gespannen voet: toen eenmaal waren ze bondgenoten, nu genadeloze concurrenten die elkaar naar het leven staan. Desondanks ontwikkelt zich een hartstochtelijke liefde tussen de gebodypiercede Tromeo Que en de prachtige Juliet Capulet. Wanneer de families er achter komen wat zich afspeelt tussen het verliefde duo, ontketent dit een ware bendeoorlog.
Tromeo & Juliet draait op dit moment niet in de bioscoop.

Shakespeare’s work truly comes alive when performed by gutter punks and crack whores.
this film feels like if a seventh grade boy wrote a screenplay after being forced to read romeo and juliet in school and honestly? it went so mf hard
“My name is Tromeo”“Strange name.”Body piercing. Kinky sex. Dismemberment. The things that made Shakespeare great. Tromeo & Juliet takes the classic tale of two star-crossed lovers and turns it into a raunchy tale of two sex-crazed humans, annihilating the pure adolescent innocence that shaped Romeo and Juliet. I’m not entirely shocked at the perverse nature Troma decided to take on forbidden love, there’s enough sex, toilet humor, genital monsters, and boobies to surely entertain! Tromeo & Juliet is offensive but mostly wants to punish your brain and morality, in a good way! A gentle reminder that life is not sacred in the land of the obscenely trashy and self-mutilated, also known as Tromaville, where classic tales come to die and be reborn. I had waaaay too much fun with this sleaze fest and it’s still better than Baz Luhrmann’s contemporary vision Romeo + Juliet—yeah I said it! extra points for the (penis monster screeching) subtitles.
This film is a raunchy, punk-rock reimagining of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, set in the gritty underbelly of Manhattan and filled with the characteristic excess of Troma Studios.
It was directed by Lloyd Kaufman, a pioneer of independent B-movie cinema and co-founder of Troma Entertainment, in 1996.
While not a mainstream award winner, it is a cult classic widely celebrated in independent film circles for its stylistic audacity.
