Frugal Theater: "The Toxic Avenger"

Must be over 18 or kinda bent to read this:

He's mean, green, and available for free on your computer screen! He's the Toxic Avenger, and he's here to destroy evil-doers in Tromaville.

There are cult films, and then there's mother-flappin' Troma films. The sick sadists of the underground indie scene, Lloyd Kaufman's Troma is the house that Toxie built. From "Tromeo & Juliet" to "Class of Nuke 'Em High" to "Poultrygeist" to "Surf Nazis Must Die," Troma films deal with topics and content that are as subtle as a zit on your forehead.

Let's put it this way — Troma's most popular films have featured:
- Full frontal nudity.
- Buckets of red gore.
- Health Clubs.
- Run-over children.
- Toxic urination.
- Surf nazis.
- Necrophilia.
- Incest.
- Radioactive monsters.
- Radioactive genitals.
- Transexual !!! nudity.
- Sex with pickles.
- Sex with detached fingers.
- Looney Tunes sound effects.
- Dead pets.
- Hookers.
- Cocaine.
- References to David Bowie.
- Death via deep friers.
- Death via shake machines.
- Death via drinking fountains.
- Death via arm ripping.
- Death via shitting a whole human? (ask me later if you're interested).

If that's your brand of corn syrup and/or mental retardation, then check out the landmark cult film, "The Toxic Avenger" on Hulu. And for the love of Mike, I warned you!

Ch-ch-check it out:
