| The Toxic Avenger (1984) Cast:Mitch Cohen,Andree Marandee,Mark Torgl "THE FIRST HERO FROM NEW JERSEY!" says the headline of this absurd and hilariously over the top superhero movie which despite it's cheap budget displays good (If somewhat cheesy) gore FX. Melvin is working as a janitor until he falls into a crate of toxic waste which makes him become a muscular monster who fights all evil! Not to be taken seriously (It is Troma after all!) and if you can get by the cheap production values, "The Toxic Avenger" is very entertaining. D.Michael Herz,Lloyd Kaufman *** |
