Troma Entertainment’s 1985 The Toxic Avenger exploded onto the grindhouse scene with equal parts blood, guts, and black comedy. What starts as a nerd’s tragic fall into toxic sludge mutates into a savage yet hilarious revenge spree against bullies, crooks, and corrupt cops. This low-budget splatterfest became a cult legend by daring to mix absurd humor with over-the-top violence, making it the radioactive godfather of superhero satire and the cornerstone of Troma’s trash-cinema empire.
