Short but sweet news from the AFM as we scored a look at the promo poster art for Troma's The Toxic Avenger 5: The Toxic Twins (teased in the finale of IV), which also confirms that it will once again be helmed by Lloyd Kaufman. The original 1986 film told the story of Melvin, the Tromaville Health Club mop boy, who inadvertently and naively trusts the hedonistic, contemptuous and vain health club members, to the point of accidentally ending up in a vat of toxic waste. The devastating results then have a transmogrification effect, his alter ego is released, and the Toxic Avenger is born, to deadly and comical results. The local mop boy is now the local Superhero, the saviour of corruption, thuggish bullies and indifference. Troma classic with good make-up effects and stunts, a pleasant surprise indeed. ...Read More
