Citizen Toxie (The Toxic Avenger IV)

(Lloyd Kaufman; 2003)

(Troma)

When the notorious Diaper Mafia take hostage the Tromaville School for the Very Special, only the Toxic Avenger and his morbidly obese sidekick Lardass can save Tromaville. However, a horrific explosion creates a dimensional portal between Tromaville and its dimensional mirror image, Amortville. While the Toxic Avenger (Toxie) is trapped in Amortville, Tromaville comes under the control of Toxie’s doppelganger, the Noxious Offender (Noxie).

Absolute sheer brilliance. Forget those lame ass sequels, this is the real deal. Troma has managed to pack so much offensive material into this film that it would take too long to list it all. Chock full of gory violence, nudity and just plain bad taste, Citizen Toxie is Troma’s best film since Terror Firmer. Essential viewing.  

Excellent sound quality.

Excellent. My only gripe is the film wasn’t shot in a widescreen aspect ratio.
