I watched The Count of Monte Cristo the other night and have to admit. I enjoyed it quite a bit for the most part.
Also finally sat down and watched The Man from Nowhere recently and enjoyed...
Inglorious and Django I guess are in there.
(I was not crazy about any of the 3, but as examples of the genre, they are def in the conversation.)
.... and of course, the follow ups, 'sympathy for mr vengeance' and 'lady vengeance'.
also:
Leon
Once upon a time in the West
Man of Fire [..... i know......]
Unforgiven

Been busier than a one-armed plate-spinner with a dose of crabs, so the cinema plate done fell off. Didn't know these two movies existed (you are not excreting me, right?).
I would not expect them to have the magnum-round impact of the first, but do they stack up well enough to warrant sourcing?
They do all exist but Sympathy For Mr Vengeance actually predates Old Boy so is the first in the revenge trilogy. Lady Vengeance rounds things off at the end.
Sympathy is the least stylised of the three but is still as dark as they come and pretty gruelling. Lady Vengeance is the most stylised and probably the least gruelling of the three so you can see him become more and more abstract with the ideas as he goes through the trilogy. All worth watching though.
Would highly recommend the Tartan Asia Extreme copies of them if you can find them on ebay or the like.
As for other revenge movies, couple that spring to mind.
Get Carter
Point Blank
Rolling Thunder
Whaddya mean it's not a revenge movie?
I liked the Gibson one, Payback. Very dry.
Also, really enjoyed the Punisher flick with Travolta as the baddie -
"Made you kill your wife... Made you kill your best friend... "
Ah, reminds me of all the bad things that have happened to folks who have crossed me. Keeps me warm at night.
Good friend of mine is Marianna Trench deep in the Asian Film game. He lives in Taipei now. Organises film festivals and the like. I am sure I can get dem shits no problemo.
"FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION"
YES.
