  1. " Titus Andronicus is a non-stop potboiler catalog of abominations (with the poetry itself counted as a crime by many critics)."

    "Titus Andronicus is a play with "14 killings, 9 of them on stage, 6 severed members, 1 rape (or 2 or 3, depending on how you count), 1 live burial, 1 case of insanity and 1 of cannibalism--an average of 5.2 atrocities per act, or one for every 97 lines." Reviewer Mike Gene Wallace adds, "This is a great play. We're talking fourteen dead bodies, kung-fu, sword-fu, spear-fu, dagger-fu, arrow-fu, pie-fu, animal screams on the soundtrack, heads roll, hands roll, tongues roll, nine and a half quarts of blood, and a record-breaking 94 on the vomit meter." Really, there's not much more to say; that is the essence of the play. "

    The characters of Chiron and Demetrius are the most despicable but when Titus has their blood and bones made into a pastry and feeds it to their mother, that's pretty weird too.  So, it's a toss up.
