Toxie will return! So says madman genius, Lloyd Kaufman, of the disfigured mop-slinger who basically gave birth to the Troma film company. The TOXIC AVENGER series has already gone through four installments. It’s been a long eight years since the last toxic adventure (CITIZEN TOXIE), but I doubt that’s been long enough to suppress any fan excitement. Here’s what Mr. Kaufman said regarding Toxie’s rise to fame as well as what will be in store for part V:
“Unlike Superman, who never seems to age, Toxie gets older with each movie. In THE TOXIC AVENGER PARTs II-IV, he has gotten married and had children. Now he’ll have to deal with his wife’s menopause, his erectile dysfunction—which is a constant erection—and his rebellious kid. We’re on to the next generation, like STAR TREK. We’ll see a little of Toxie’s twins in kindergarten, and then as teenagers. The son is rebellious, while the daughter is ultra-politically correct. We’ll show her going through puberty, which should be the most colorful monthly cycle ever put on film! We want to focus on the father/child relationship, and the generation gap. There is also a villain who wants to rename Tromaville Scheisseville.”
Wow! Talk about a film that has is all! Could this be the biggest Toxie to date? Well, I’d say that with the resounding success of POULTRYGEIST, Troma is going to pull out all the stops in the envelope-pushing scale. In fact, they may even tear the envelope to pieces. And I’m sure that Toxie will be there with his trusty mop to clean it all up!
