AKA: The Punisher II The 2004 take on The Punisher was a modest hit, and while Tom Jane himself made for a fine Frank Castle the movie itself was messy; it was a grim-faced revenge thriller one second, then a wacky neighbour subplot would intrude. A direct sequel never happened and the next film War Zone rebooted the character. Fans of Janes take can console themselves with the gory 2005 game, where he returned to voice the character in a story that mixes together the movie and comics. Jigsaw is now the son of John Travoltas villain, who was left hideously scarred following the end of the movie, and returns to seek revenge. The game is a third person blaster, where Castle uses all manner of weapons to commit one man genocide, and uses the environment to torture enemies for information; he can also execute them with methods like feeding them to sharks. During the story he also occasionally teams up with characters like Nick Fury and Iron Man, and there are plenty of other easter eggs for the hardcore fan out there.
