Get the kid and the bike because we're heading to The Mexican Place to check out Troma Entertainment's crown jewel: The Toxic Avenger (1984). Just in time to celebrate the release of Macon Blair's remake, too!Join us as we offer a primer on all things Toxie before diving into this ridiculously silly (and charming!) little film. The Toxic Avenger feels like a live-action cartoon that's been dumped in a vat of extremely transgressive toxic waste, and it all (mostly) works!Plus: an unexpected gang of queers, masturbating to photos of dead children, "Body Talk", and swapping out human heads for cantaloupes.CW: Dog death, child death, attempted sexual assault and the use of many, many slurs. Questions?
