蜘蛛巣城
The film has received praise from literary critics despite the many liberties it takes with the original play. The American literary critic Harold Bloom judged it "the most successful film version of "Macbeth"". Sylvan Barnet writes it captured Macbeth as a strong warrior, and that "Without worrying about fidelity to the original," "Throne of Blood" is "much more satisfactory" than most Shakespeare films.
