Review of The Toxic Avenger (1984) by Dave Kehr for Chicago Reader — 27 Mar 2007
Cruddy, primal, extremely violent, and fairly entertaining, this 1984 feature from the New York-based exploitation outfit Troma, Inc. (Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz) captures some of the snot-flicking spirit of the old EC comics.
How much you'll enjoy its deliberate crudity probably depends on how far you can let yourself regress to surly adolescence.
