  "textContent": "_Rolling Thunder_ (1977) is perhaps the most salient example of “revengeamatic” films: a grindhouse-style subgenre of revenge films characterized by a protagonist’s methodical quest for payback against those who wronged them. These films are defined by a clear path of cause and effect: an act of brutality sets the process in motion, the protagonist activates the cycle of vengeance, and the plot advances inexorably toward a climactic act of redemption. Films such as _Rolling Thunder_ distill these elements to their most essential function, automating the story into a lean, mean, genre machine.\n\nThe post Videodrome :: Rolling Thunder (1977) first appeared on Aquarium Drunkard.",
