Summary: Come back, Troma! Come back!
Review: So here it is...the long-awaited Citizen Toxie.

You know, I'm getting tired of doing Troma all these favors. I buy all their movies, I watch them, I talk about them to my friends, I wear the T-shirts. But all I'm really doing is kidding myself, and biding my time until the real Troma stands up again. Because as perversely entertaining as Citizen Toxie is, it's not the real Troma. The Troma I know and love has heart, and I'm sorry to say Lloyd seems to have reached into the bowels of Toxie himself and plucked his poor, black little heart out.

Maybe Kaufman is afraid of being "good." His defensive-bordering-on-paranoid rants against mainstream entertainment like Spielberg certainly suggest that he's intentionally shunning competence. Look no further than his last two flicks - they're both self-referential, self-conscious post-modern satires. Fine, but ANYONE can do that! There's no heart, and that's a huge letdown, following the masterful "Tromeo & Juliet," which was pure heart (and it was just as silly and campy as all the others, and it had a better lesbian scene too).

But maybe that movie was a fluke. Maybe all Troma wants to do is stink up the joint in a good way, like a big plate of onion rings on a caviar-and-lobster buffet table. In which case Citizen Toxie fits in nicely. It's fun, funny, entertaining, a good time. So are the extras, even if the documentary is a little dull. But look at the actors in Citizen Toxie! They're GOOD! They know what they're doing! Give them a chance, man. Mix up the letters of "Troma" and switch that T for an E and you get "Amore"...let's get the Amore back in Troma, shall we?

So on the whole, Citizen Toxie has a good beat and you can dance to it. 4 stars. Peace out.

Summary: A true sequel to the first Toxic Avenger
Review: The gags, effects, humor, and sleazy portrayal of characters makes this movie a must. TA4 is the best Troma film released, well--since the first Toxic Avenger movie! I loved every minute of it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Troma rules!!!
Review: The original Toxic Avenger is the most famous Troma movie ever made and finally there is a worthy sequel. When I first heard of Citizen Toxie and how great it was, I had high hopes as Tromeo & Juliet and Terror Firmer were so cool. I wasn't disappointed, Citizen Toxie is hilarious from start to finish with everything that makes Troma great.

There's tonnes of nekkid girls (a few guys as well), action, cheesy Troma gore and some of the most twisted humour ever! I mean who else but Troma has the guts to make jokes about, hate crimes, penil implants, abortions and the metally challenged? I think that plenty of people would feel it's their duty to critisize such un PC humour, but really the true racism satired in this film are shown as events happening in the 'evil' dimention thus rightfully protrayed as dispicable yet how many Hollywood film makers even acknowledge that these exact evils happen in the real world? Most people would agree that making fun of the handicapped is not cool, but hey the mentally challenged characters Tito and Sweetie develop true personalities in Citizen Toxie and really aren't the tear jerking Hollywood flicks like 'I am Sam' that use handicapped people to make their films sappy and sentimantal exploiting them just as much as films that laugh at them?

Citizen Toxie has the kind of no holds barred creativity only a low budget independant film can capture. If you love Troma you will already have this 2 disc set, if you don't like Troma steer clear of this film as it embodies everything Troma represents.

As usual there are a tonne of extras on the disc. Troma certainly know how to make great DVD sets, how many big studio DVD's do you get which think that 'interactive menus' and 'chapter selection' are special features? Apocalypse Soon the making of documentry is awesome. Any big budget film 'making of' consists of a glossy set of interviews in which one dimentional actors like Julia Roberts go into the dynamics of their character acting and feature a director explaining his artistic vision for the remake of a foriegn film, but Apocalypse Soon features totally raw on set footage of the film crew. All the problems like lacklusture stunts, late actors, script revisions ect are all shown in on the spot unedited footage. LLoyd isn't painted as a character who is beloved by all crew and actors but shown reacting honestly to the day to day struggles on set.

This double DVD is amazing, very cool film, great extras, some interesting easter eggs and is worth every penny.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "I got my head up my ass"
Review: This is the reason why I love the aroma of Troma. This movie never stops. It is pure nasty sillyness. I recommend this to anyone, not just people who can handle it. ANYONE!!This movie is a bizarre one. With appearances from Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf, Ron Jeremy, Lemmy Kilmeister and the guy's who play the original Toxic Avenger. I love this film, if anyone coms across it, I say watch it, just not with your parents.

Rating: 5 stars
