THE TOXIC AVENGER (1984)
Special Features: Tickets $8!
A notorious 1980s horror classic, uncut and restored! Along with PINK FLAMINGOS and THE EVIL DEAD, THE TOXIC AVENGER stands as one of the most gleefully offensive “midnight movies” of the 20th century. Among the residents of Tromaville is Melvin, a nerdy janitor at the local health club. When a gang of thugs devise a cruel hoax that goes horribly wrong, Melvin is cast through a third-story window into a vat of toxic waste. However, an unexpected metamorphosis takes place. As the chemicals take hold of his body, Melvin turns into the Toxic Avenger, doer of good and brutal mauler of evil! The excitement is nonstop as Toxie sets out to single-handedly wipe out the forces of evil that torment the people of Tromaville. DIR/PROD Michael Herz, Lloyd Kaufman; SCR Joe Ritter.
