I staight up love how Toxie doesn't go the mindless beast route after transforming. He's still a person in control of his own thoughts and actions.

[@daltonwilliams1723]

He’s arguably even more coherent as a monster than he was human.

[@user-se7dj6he3e]

falling into that toxic waste and transforming into a monster was probably the best thing that ever happened to him when he was human he was a social pariah no one liked him they bullied him, teased him and treated him like garbage but as a monster he is adored by millions people love and respect him and call and see him as a hero

[@thehorrorwombat]

Remember when James said many years ago to not expect a kill count on this movie? Oh how times have changed.

[@froggyfresh08]

Why did he say to not expect it?

[@DeadMeat]

[@thehorrorwombat]

@@DeadMeat If you skip to the 1:10:11 time mark on the dead meat podcast episode of the toxic avenger, I believe you said to not expect a kill count of this movie mainly because of the gore content. It was kind of like when you said back then you didn’t want to cover hereditary because it was a depressing movie, but you’ve since changed your mind. Also, I’m glad you changed your mind about convering toxie on the kill count. I love it when you cover really weird 80s schlock movies.

I'm so glad James finally has a chance to cover this movie, I know he's been wanting to for a long time. And I see why, it's absolutely amazing.

Fun fact: There’s a deleted (non-canon) scene which shows that Wanda and Julie didn’t die at all, in fact Toxie mearly cuts off Julie’s hair with those scissors. But since the scene is non-canon, we can safely assume they die. Also, the scene where Toxie asks his BLIND girlfriend if he LOOKS inconspicuous enough always cracks me up! 🤣🤣🤣

[@Shuffles_Art]

I always really appreciate how much James cares about other people. While I’m not a huge fan of the sorta “offensive humour” in general, it was kinda sweet seeing James point out how 1, the characters saying and doing these things are inherently evil and (mostly) get their comeuppance by the end of it all and 2, documenting the parts of the film that were both great and not so great for those taking part in it as well as advocating for more safety measures while filming. Of course we can say “it was a different time” and all of that, but what we really need to learn from this is to approach these sorts of situations with care, to ensure that we document this sort of humour in a way that doesn’t involve making other people uncomfortable.

This was a wholsesome episode. Its rare to find a film with a monster that the city loves and accepts. Thia film teaches us a lot about how ti focus on whats inside us rather than what we look like on the outside. We just have to ignore the brutal fatalities.

Aye shoutout the Oblongs bro that was an awesome reference

I watched this for the first time in expectation of the kill count. After James’s description of the movie I STILL wasn’t prepared for when I saw that fist kill. Really enjoyed the film and the kill count!

Loved watching these slop movies with my dad at the drive thru back in the day. Also its crazy how wholesome the minds behind troma are given the content lmao

The podcast was so fun I was ecstatic to see this movie get a kill count!

Toxic Avenger is certainly one of the movies of all time.
