Marvel's The Punisher New Trailer Breakdown: 11 Things You Need To See
8. More Torture?
Netflix
Anyone who's watched one of Marvel's Netflix shows before will know that they aren't exactly light when it comes violent content. Punisher - being the Punisher - won't be skipping on the corn syrup either, with one particularly gruesome shot from the trailer showing a whole array of bloodied instruments being lined up ominously on a workbench.
One would suspect that it's Frank who's got his hands on these utensils, with pliers, wire-cutters, hacksaws, scalpels, drills, hooks and even a blowtorch adorning the foreground of the shot.
In any case, you wouldn't want to be on the wrong end of that sort of punishment, particularly so, if Frank's channeling his inner Jack Bauer in his quest for revenge. There's also the chance that this could, in fact, be used against Frank in his military days. Speaking of...
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
