This is a top-notch schlockfest, really fun. A few bits are things that you wouldn’t get away with these days, which is all the more reason we should appreciate stuff like this. The completely over the top acting from literally everyone is one of the highlights for me and I highly recommend that you give this one a shot.
As good as it gets! I lose it with the mop!
One of the last true American originals. The world would be a better place if more people saw THE TOXIC AVENGER.
Masterpiece
