There has been a lot of hard work put into these movies special effects, for a movie of this genre, it has worked very well. The local mop boy is now the local Superhero, the saviour of corruption, thuggish bullies and indifference. The devastating results then have a transmogrification effect, his alter ego is released, and the Toxic Avenger is born, to deadly and comical results. Is The Toxic Avenger a social comment on the narcissistic and materialistic and bigotry ways of Western society or just a plain horror movie parody reflecting on how society should be more tolerant to difference? This is the story of Melvin, the Tromaville Health Club mop boy, who inadvertently and naively trusts the hedonistic, contemptuous and vain health club members, to the point of accidentally ending up in a vat of toxic waste. As with their biggest hit, The Toxic Avenger is a clever filming of parody and sardonic humour.
With a strong zest for independence, shock, black comedy, sex and with a youthful cast, these movies have become cult figures that certainly deserve the recognition and respect amongst their peers and fans alike. Jackson, Kevin Costner and the actress Marisa Tomei as early rising stars on their books, and with over 165 movies, to date, to their name, Troma Entertainment has become very entertaining indeed. The Troma Company can be proud to have had the likes of Samuel L.
My only problem is that I now really need to find "The Toxic Avenger" from 1984 and wath that one too, hope I get suprized there too.This little pleasant surprise came quite unexpected, and the reason why I love independent movies such as this, directed by Lloyd Kaufman and the reclusive Michael Herz, founders of Troma Entertainment in 1974, the independent movie distribution company for the low budget B-Movie genre. Im REALLY REALLY happy I watched this musical, there are no reasons not to watch it. IMDB call it a musical, I would call it "musical, comedy, horror, action and drama", in that order :) The interaction between the actors and the musicans/audience reminds you on the fact that this is "all live audience". The caracters fits exelent to the actors and its clear that they have played the show multiple times and really have good chemistry on stage. It was truly a nice musical, the music was nice most of the time, the dialog between the music was somewath clever. I dident leave my chair before the show was finished, and not because I fall asleep either.
BUT I had nothing better to do so I thinked 'what the hell, lets watch the first 15 minutes atleast' Reviewed by SpecialWeirdo101 8 / 10 Was I suprized? YES I was.įirst of all, I really really regretted downloading the musical, I was seriously sure I was going to dislike it when I realized it was based on a horror movie from 1984.
