Synopsis:
Welcome to Tromaville, a small American town which is being terrorized by criminals while the towns Mayor sits idly by. Among the residents of Tromaville is Melvin, a wimp of a young man and a janitor at the local health club. He is forever teased and tormented by the strong, beautiful men and women of the club as he goes about his daily menial tasks. A particularly nasty group of Melvin's tormentors devise a plot to ridicule him in front of the whole town. BUT, the 'harmless' pranks turns into a horrible accident as Melvin crashes through a third story widow and lands in a vat of hazardous toxic chemicals.
The rest, as they say, is history! As the toxic chemicals take hold of Melvin's body, a strange transformation begins to take place. Melvin the weakling turns into a huge, hulking 'Toxic Avenger' - the first superhero in New Jersey! The excitement is non-stop as this monstrous mess of mutated man sets out to single-handedly wipe out the forces of evil which contaminates the town of Tromaville.

Heavily cut - The Toxic Avenger review by CP Customer

Spoiler Alert
11/10/2014

I had the DVD version of this that stated on the disc it was 88 minutes long , in reality it is 76 minutes long with every single bit of gore and violence seemingly cut out. The film itself was absolutely dreadful and I couldn't even make it to the end.

The Toxia Avenger - The Toxic Avenger review by CP Customer

Spoiler Alert
28/10/2010

I watched 5 minutes of this nonsense. 'B' movie is far too far up the alphabet for this movie. The camera work was very fuzzy and it just seemed too amateur that I gave up after five minutes. I thought because it received so many stars that it might be ok to watch!
