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.”

  • 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, 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.
