Many thanks for your recommendations!

I'll give them a go (although from the titles, I suspect some of them aren't exactly "subtle" )

The Crow, sure it has its fair share of violence but also has a very good story backed up by great acting.

Another vote for Man on Fire.

Oldboy is part of a revenge trilogy. In order of release you have Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, Oldboy and then Sympathy for Lady Vengeance.

The stories in each are unrelated so you can watch in any order you like. I personally enjoyed all three

One of my favourite revenge films has to be RoboCop.

It's not always one that springs to mind as a revenge film but as soon as RoboCop starts to remember who he was and what was done to him, I've never wanted someone to get their revenge so much!

I did not know that

Get Carter

The Death Wish films are pretty satisfying from a revenge POV.
The first film not quite so as the original culprits get away , but in the other 4 films the real baddies all get their comeuppance.

Unfortunately , apart from the first 2 none of the others has come out on dvd in the UK even though MGM got 3,4 and 5 classified and DW2 is horrendously censored

Buried Alive.

Second vote for Count of Monte Cristo. Fantastic film.

Unforgiven is kind of vengeance, it only turns into a real revenge film in about the last 15 minutes but it's worth waiting for.
