About the Title…
I love Shakespeare's play, Macbeth. As far as art that depicts the fallen nature of humanity and our inextricable propensity toward our own self destruction there is none better. Macbeth's slide toward his ultimate demise begins when he is shown his own future by the Weird Sisters, a group of three witches, who are as much in control in the play as anyone. Once Macbeth is shown his ultimate future he fights and kills until he obtains what is rightfully (he thinks) his. Much blood is shed as he attempts to control what he has taken.
