Ben and Rob dive into The Toxic Avenger (1984), the gloriously trashy horror-comedy that turned an ordinary nerdy janitor into a mop-wielding mutant hero. Created by Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz, The Toxic Avenger is the ultimate mix of DIY guts, anarchic satire, and midnight-movie magic; the kind of cult classic that's still shocking and oddly sweet nearly four decades later. Trace the Toxic Avenger's wild journey from VHS obscurity to pop-culture demon with us, through action figures, cartoons, comic books, and midnight screenings.How has The Toxic Avenger aged in 2025—does it still hit like a body-slam of absurdity, or feel like a dangerously dated dated relic? What does Lloyd Kaufman think when he looks back at Toxie today—and how does he celebrate its enduring weirdness? CONSUUUME to find out all this and much much more!PLUS!

Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! The Toxic Avenger is unrated, unhinged, and full of heart. In this episode, we're exploring the explosive color work of unrated horror, Toxie's fantastic creature design that harkens back to the body horror roots of the genre, the restlessness of successful on-screen comedy, and the film's folkloric catharsis in the face of cartoonish corruption and cruelty.

After flushing the franchise down the toilet with lazy, boring sequels, "Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV" attempts to right the ship. Toxie is trying for a baby. The diaper mafia takes over a special needs school and while attempting to save the kids, Toxie enters an evil mirror dimension, while his monstrous doppelganger enters his.This is full of sleaze, offensive words, actions, punching down, nudity, poop filled diapers smeared on faces, plenty of r*** and some vicious kills. So, yeah, they did it, and it's kind of great in a special, shameful way.So this is like the final Toxie, kind of? I'm assuming the quality levels are wildly different in Macon Blair's version. So this is a goodbye to Kaufman's uneven run (thank christ, and no we will do the stage play version).
The Toxic Avenger Unrated is a 2023 American superhero black comedy splatter film written and directed by Macon Blair. It is the fifth installment, a reboot of The Toxic Avenger film series, and a remake of the 1984 film. Set in a fantasy world, the film follows janitor Winston Gooze, who, after a freak accident, transforms into a mutant vigilante known as Toxie. Armed with his mop, the unlikely hero battles freaks, gangsters and corrupt CEOs while trying to save his relationship with his sonHosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

How does Toxie's lethal dose of justice sit with today's audience? | The Toxic Avenger | A janitor becomes a social outcast when a freak accident at a chemical factory turns him into a mutant. However, he soon uses his newfound superhuman strength to battle slimy criminals and a corrupt CEO.
Toxie is back. This week we're talking about the new 2025 (or 2023 depending on who you're talking to) reboot of The Toxic Avenger. A movie that is a little embarrassed to be what is, has great performances that are all the same performance, obligatory nudity, and we debate what the invisible clothes joke is referencing.
This week on the Toy Power Podcast; its another News heavy episode; as we take a snap shot of the Crowdfunding that's still in progress from the MOTU Snake Lair & the Star Wars GunShip. Then we look at some teaser images of the Transformers Missing Link Ultra Magnus... We have some questions if it will be as articulated as the previous releases? McFarlane has a new Batmobile on offer for everyone's garage & Blokees Galaxy Version 08 is a has a really neat roster of figures! Will the Figure Obscura: The Jersey Devil, be haunting your neighbourhood? Or is the Marvel releases of Deadpool, Doop & Mysterio sets more your desire? Star Wars Black series announces some long overdue classic figures as well as some Christmas designs that are so bad they are good?!? Then it gets more personal; as we plug our latest Scores! There's certainly a bit of Jealousy in the room - but also some love as Ben surprises Trent with a custom missing accessory. Frank surprises us all with some outstanding Comics - some of which are quite old - plus an awesome plan to display them! Rounding out the ep; its a bit of a round table chat about what we are Reading / Watching / Playing!

“The thing that started it all off was me saying [the character Toxie] should be a guy in a suit. In other words, let's not do a computer-generated creature, let's have a person in a suit and have that handmade, hand-stitched kind of quality to it where you can sort of see the seams a little bit and have that be part of the fun. I also said let's have it be rated R. Hopefully y'all are not interested in a family-friendly PG-13 version of this movie, because that's not what the fans of the original are going to want, so let's keep it in the R-zone. And let's make sure it stays very silly. That silliness is what was so appealing to me about the original, and I just wanted to make sure that we weren't going to try and do something that was too self-serious,” says The Toxic Avenger writer/director Macon Blair about pitching Legendary Studios his version of how he would reimagine the classic black comedy splatter film for a modern audience while staying loyal to the fans of the 1984 version. On today's episode, we chat with writer/director/actor Macon Blair about his previous films like Blue Ruin and I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore, which won the Sundance Grand Jury award in 2017. His latest film is a reboot of The Toxic Avenger starring Peter Dinklage and Kevin Bacon, and is a whole lot of gory, gross-out fun. Blair talks about the need to dig into the over-the-top absurdity of the franchise while still making the modern version of the story feel authentic. “I'm always looking for something that I can connect to on a personal level. I don't mean autobiographical. I mean to be able to have that electrical current with what I'm typing out,” he says. Blair tells us about his on-going journey to finding his voice as a writer and what it was like waiting two years to get distribution for The Toxic Avenger. He also explains why he skewers a famous screenwriting trope in the film that involves a cat named Mr. Treats who was apparently quite the menace. To hear more insight, listen to the podcast.

Writer, director, producer, and actor Macon Blair joins us this week to talk about his fascinating career, and his bold new take on a cult classic: the unrated remake of The Toxic Avenger (in theaters August 29).You've seen Macon on screen in films like Blue Ruin, Green Room, Thunder Road, and even Oppenheimer. He also won the Sundance Grand Jury Prize with his directorial debut I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore, starring Melanie Lynskey and Elijah Wood. Now, he's back with a gooey genre shift...reimagining Lloyd Kaufman's radioactive hero for a new generation while honoring the messy, subversive spirit of Troma.We dig into Macon's creative path from Murder Party with Jeremy Saulnier all the way to working with Elijah Wood and Peter Dinklage on this bonkers new Toxie. Along the way, we talk about practical effects (yes, intestines are involved), absurd kills that didn't make the cut, the challenges of redesigning an iconic monster, and why The Toxic Avenger might actually be the perfect antidote to the Marvel-ification of movies.and of course we ask the important question… when can we expect 2oxic 2venger: Toxie vs Dracula vs the Unicorn's Horn in Space?If you love cult cinema, superhero parodies, or just a good old fashioned over the top practical effect, you don't want to miss this conversation sooo...Follow Us on Social Media:Instagram & Threads: @mostlyhorrorpodTikTok & Twitter/X: @mostlyhorrorSteve: @stevenisaverage (all socials)Sean: @hypocrite.ink (IG/TikTok), @hypocriteink (Twitter/X)Enjoyed this episode?

When we haphazardly decided to just do all of the Toxic Avenger movies because the first one was great, we thought we had stumbled upon the promised land. Unfortunately, we are a couple of dummies and got taken for a very boring ride.In the garbage sequel, Toxie goes to Japan to find his father. An evil company is tricking him and destroying his hometown while he is away. Blah blah blah.Feel free to leave a review on a podcast site, if you do, we'll cover a movie of your choosing. How do we have time to do all those extra reviews??? Lololol nobody ever does it.

This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we are still down a Scot, as he is still unwell. But that will not slow him down in contributing to this ep! Before we get into the main segments, we chat about Ben & Frank's latest Plastic Addiction, in the form of Transformers Blokees! Prior to chatting about the Superman Film itself, we focus on the Toy likeness compared to what the actor actually looks like! With a little Jurassic World banter in between. Then, without another moment to spare, we get right into the James Gunn driven film itself! We chat towards our Cinema experiences and start off with a non-spoiler discussion; before we head into a chat about the whole Film itself! Giving it our typical DVG rating out of 19 too. Then changing gears, we introduce a New segment - named: Variant Schmariant! We each pick two variants of a pre-existing character (in toy form) that just doesn't need to exist. We unearth some quite silly versions of characters that had a legitimate Toy Release; that clearly logic was not a concern at all!! Plus we tie a nice bow around the proposed Nick-Names for both Frank & Scot. Enjoy!!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week Dave surprises Bryan with a movie with a title that is at once a good description and a terrible misrepresentation. They're going to Germany for a look at Martin Walz's very gay 1996 horror comedy, Killer Condom. Based on the comic of the same name (and the follow-up, Down To The Bone) by German cartoonist, Ralf Konig, Killer Condom (Kondom des Grauens) tells the story of New York City in the grips of terror as carnivorous condoms bite the penis off of the city's men left and right. It's also a touching love story as Detective Luigi Macaroni shakes his jaded feelings on love and comes to terms with feelings for the rentboy who keeps distracting him from his job.Distributed by Troma, Killer Condom was thrust out into the English-speaking world on the vague promise of the outrageous, politically incorrect comedy you've come to expect from the house that Toxie built but this sells the movie short as it's actually a very human love story and a not-so-subtle meditation on the AIDS crisis. Now, it IS a movie made in the 90's and hasn't exactly aged well but reckon with a little transphobia and racism and you find a terribly unique movie that was way ahead of its time.Join the Bring Me The Axe Discord: https://discord.gg/snkxuxzJSupport Bring Me The Axe! on Patreon: https://patreon.com/bringmetheaxepodBuy Bring Me The Axe merch here:https://www.bonfire.com/store/bring-me-the-axe-podcast/
This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we recap our attendance at the Adelaide Mega Toy Fair event. This annual event promotes itself for its long running campaign; but with new organisers this year, how did it actually go? We chat towards what we spotted, what we think needs to be improved & what we scored!! Spoiler alert: Pub Lunch & making a day of it with great friends, is always the overall highlight!! Then Trent does an awesome Toyline Retrospective on the early 80's franchise that was: Blackstar! With a Filmation Cartoon airing first in 1981; then a corresponding Toyline from Galoob in 1983! Featuring the fight between our Hero: John Blackstar against the Evil Ruler: Overlord on the Planet Sagar. This Toyline & franchise actually has more ties to Masters Of The Universe than one may think.... There are some EPIC Beasts, questionable modes of transport & the incredibly sort after Ice Castle Playset - this Franchise really tried hard & its interesting to think in a sliding doors parallel reality - could this have been a more popular franchise than Masters Of The Universe?! Then rounding out the episode, we squeeze a quick round table, around some of our Latest Scores! Also, as mentioned in this ep; be sure to checkout the incredibly comprehensive website from Avon Fox - around all the Vintage style Transforming Robots that aren't Hasbro branded! - www.the-liberator.netSupport the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Predator won't die... the Smurfs won't go away... and someone thinks that someone cares about Dora... plus, Live Action Dragons, Pixar's film that no one is talking about... Brad Pitt drives fast... M3GAN is the hero now?... more live action dragons... Netflix sequels no one cares about... Superman and Fantastic Four get their day in the spotlight... Liam Neeson goes slapstick... Idris Elba and Sydney Sweeney doing work... some director named Ron Howard finally gets a follow up to his hit Cocoon... Spike and Denzel back together again... and Peter Dinklege goes Toxie...
Matt Bors is writing the new Toxie comic book for Agoy Comics
This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we shine light on quite an old property; that is The Shadow! From its origins in Pulp Comic Format to the Hollywood Film in 1994 staring Alec Baldwin. That Film was classified big enough to spawn a corresponding Toyline from Kenner. Trent unpacks what was great, and what was left in the dark, around this neat property. Then we switch gears, and have a FULL-ON Spoiler lead discussion around the new Marvel Film that is: Thunderbolts - or New Avengers?!? We run though how each character played their part; the tone of the film & what we all overall thought of it too. Keen to hear from your thoughts on this Film too!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
