The Toxic Avenger comes home after an overwhelming critical reception which praised director Macon Blair’s execution along with strong performances from the all-star cast – including Peter Dinklage, Kevin Bacon (Footloose, Hollow Man), Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings franchise), Jacob Tremblay (Room, Wonder), and Taylour Paige (Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, Zola).
From Empire’s “Charming,” to The Wrap’s “A cult sensation,” critics have layered on praise for the Monster Hero. “There’s a new era of heroes coming, and it belongs to the Toxic Avenger,” said CBR. Screenrant called it “a great and hilarious film held up by a talented cast, intelligent writing, and beautiful cinematography,” while MovieWeb anointed it “the summer’s most entertaining superhero film.”
The physical media includes DVD, Blu-ray (Collector’s Edition), 4K + Blu-ray (Collector’s Edition) which includes a limited edition lenticular O-Sleeve, Steelbook – 4K + Blu-ray (Collector’s Edition), and an Amazon exclusive 4K UHD + Blu-ray Collector’s Edition with bonus The Toxic Avenger (1984) original film on 4K UHD.
Special Features on the Collector’s Edition include:
- A Toxic Environment: Best of Behind-the-Scenes
- Director Commentary with Macon Blair
- Toxic Shock with Tiffany Shepis
- 40th Anniversary of The Toxic Avenger (1984)
In A Toxic Environment, fans can go behind the scenes with cast and crew interviews, prosthetics and effects setup, and an extended look at the twisted world of The Toxic Avenger – journeying through American culture to learn the story of Toxie, the Jersey-born hero, alongside Super Tromette Tiffany Shepis, the dark angel of Troma.
The horror/comedy movie, written and directed by Blair (I Don’t Feel At Home in This World Anymore, writer for Marvel Comics/Dark Horse Comics), is produced by Legendary Entertainment and distributed by Cineverse. Based on Troma Entertainment President and Co-founder Lloyd Kaufman’s “THE TOXIC AVENGER” franchise.
When a downtrodden janitor, Winston Gooze (Dinklage), is exposed to a catastrophic toxic accident, he’s transformed into a new kind of hero: The Toxic Avenger. Now, Toxie must rise from outcast to savior, taking on ruthless corporate overlords and corrupt forces who threaten his son, his friends, and his community. In a world where greed runs rampant… justice is best served radioactive.
