... View MoreWell, if you are used to Troma's special brand of gore and humor, depraved and tasteless, then CITIZEN TOXIE:THE TOXIC AVENGER IV will probably satisfy their faithful legion of fans. The hideously deformed monster hero of superhuman size and strength has a lot to deal with his next adventure. I mean, this fourth film in the TOXIC AVENGER series opens with a psychotic group known as the "diaper mafia"(I couldn't make this up if I tried)besieging a school room full of "tards"(leave it to Troma to take a giant poke at the mentally handicapped, even having one of the nutsoid mafia unloading bullets into one of the "special" students until the victim is a bloody mess, face barely recognizable)and hoisting the pregnant teacher, hands tied with rope, with preparations to make a statement about waisting tax dollars on those who can not be taught. Well, Toxie shows up in the disguise of a hot babe reporter in a red bikini and starts destroying the diaper mafia one at a time(we get the wonderful image of one scare member pooping his diaper before it is shoved in his face, his head later caved in by Toxie's foot). We actually see a victim's head up his ass(literally, this, my friends, is a first), before it is taken off by a Toxie clothesline soon to be a "hot potato" for the students to toss about the classroom. Toxie even removes one victim's guts and other organs despite the fact that this member of the mafia has a detonator for a bomb(a bomb with a very slow timer). Toxie is trying to impregnate Sarah(if you think the blind jokes have subsided, think again). Toxie even has a side kick, the "morbidly obese" Lard Ass(that's his crime-fighting title!).When Lard Ass eats the bomb(!), before it can fully digest(I have no other way of explaining it), a cigarette lighter sets off an explosion in the school which sends Toxie into an alternate dimension where his opposite is not the superhero, but a villain who sells crack to youth and is wanted by the police(while also a sex deviant with a male boy toy in leather, a female slave he beats and who has bad dental hygiene, and a monster cock). Meanwhile, Noxie, Toxie's "alternate self", no longer the hero, and unapologetic when it comes to ripping the arms off of Tromaville's police chief and tossing a 12 year old girl into the school brick wall because she asks him, "Oh, Toxie, say it ain't so?" Well, as expected by Troma, an elderly lady moving across the street with her walker is hit by a car, with her skull later crushed after the driver backs over the woman, not to mention a black man is dragged, hog-tied, by a truck driven by racist rednecks until the fellow's body parts fall off, his lower torso pulled apart! Imagine seeing Noxie use Julie Strain's breast to crush a face before peeling her face off! And, a homage to news reels on celluloid, ala Citizen Kane, as only Lloyd Kaufman can provide. We see tongues ripped from mouths, eyes gouged, video game style martial arts between 'evil Kabukiman' and Toxie inside a meat market(except in 'Amortville' a "cowman" in "hick chic" is the butcher who used humans as the food product!), Lard Ass as a poor scientist giving blow jobs for food(in Amortville), Corey Feldman hamming it up as a baby doc with a fake mustache, Sarah pregnant by both Noxie and Toxie, abortion clinic humor, anus violence(rectal hemorrhaging), rape and S&M comedy, decapitated head hi-jinx, Ron Jeremy as Tromaville mayor on and on about seeking the Lord's guidance and presence(resulting in being stabbed through the mouth and out his neck with a crucifix) etc. Oh, and God is a foul-mouthed dwarf with heaven a dump in New Jersey. The hospital massacre has to be seen to be believed, as Kaufman administers the most ridiculous use of split screen I've ever seen(not to mention, you get more mileage out Toxie's mop that could ever be conceived)with Toxie brutalizing an army of neo-Nazis to save his pregnant wife held captive by Noxie. Definitely, Kaufman and company apply the kitchen sink method(including "superhero"(more like superdud)Sgt Kabukiman NYPD who spends most of his time wasted), it seems the only thing missing is Pat Ryan(although, Joe Fleishaker, as Lard Ass, was more than a worthy substitute).
... View MoreHoly Christmas!! what did we do to deserve this? Personally, I had given up on a watchable sequel to The Toxic Avenger, what a pleasant surprise, It makes me giddy just thinking about it. Citizen Toxie was exactly what should happen, post Terror Firmer. After the ultimate Troma experience, this was really the most logical, next step, considering Terror Firmer was about the making of a new Toxic Avenger sequel. Well, this is it...Our long-awaited (real) sequel begins with the most hilarious, most outrageous, first 30 minutes in cinema history. Upon his triumphant return, Melvin "Toxie" Ferd wipes out the diaper mafia, accidentally gets a bunch of retarded ( very special) children shot, impregnates his wife, and unknowingly falls into an alternate dimension. Not a bad warm up. It really feels like the movie has barely started. With an alternate dimension, of course, comes an alternate Toxie. Meet the Noxious Offender, sadistic, killer, crack dealer, just a flat out heel...oh yeah, did I mention, he's now in Toxie's dimension, and he's about to kill virtually, everyone in Tromaville? With most everyone now dead, and a new breed of super hero's trying to make sense of things, Tromaville, along with Toxie's wife, Sarah, belongs to The Noxious Offender. Meanwhile, in Amortville, Toxie, and his retarded (very special), new friends, are awfully concerned, they can't find their houses, there's crime everywhere, come to think of it, this is a cesspool of filth, I don't think were in Tromaville anymore. What follows is the absolute, wildest, most out of hand, unpredictable day in the history of Tromaville...I mean Amortville.Citizen Toxie is an unexpected, offensive, fast-paced, bat out of hell, but, of course, still has "that Kaufman silliness". We even got our favorites, Lemmy, Debbie, Fleishaker, even our pal, Ron Jeremy pays us a visit. A decent B-movie, not to mention, a masterpiece of a B-movie is quite refreshing, in our current decade. Too bad John Waters doesn't have Lloyd's attitude, and stop making quirky, pseudo-taboo, upbeat, comedies, like Pecker, and do what he's on this planet to do, but that's another story for another day. Citizen Toxie, unlike the first two sequels, stays true to the original, but with the same hard hitting, mean-spirited attitude of Tromeo & Juliet, and Terror Firmer. Our hero, Lloyd Kaufman gives his fans exactly what they crave, more than anyone else. If Toxie 2 and 3 depress you, and if Kaufman's most recent work excites you, and if you love the monster hero, then, Citizen Toxie will leave you in a teary-eyed stupor. Now, that's more like it!! 10/10
... View MoreThis is an excellent sequel, that goes incredibly way over the line, and you know what?, I absolutely loved it!. All the characters are excellent, and the story while juvenile and incredibly bizarre was awesome, plus the performances are all highly amusing!. It was often very bizarre but in a good way, and it has to be one of the goriest films I have ever seen, plus it's very well made and written for it's low budget. This is even better then the awesome original Toxic Avenger, and it had some bizarre characters (Like The Vibrator, Dolphin man etc,etc) but they all were really cool, plus I loved the final showdown between Good Toxie and Evil Toxie!. The diaper mafia at the beginning were just hilarious, and while I did feel ashamed for laughing at some things because they went way over the line, I couldn't help it! plus it's extremely creative as well. It also may be the best Troma movie I have ever seen, and the gore effects were very good for it's low budget, plus I also loved it's sleaziness. I won't say anymore because I want you to find out for yourself, all I'm going to say is it's must see for everyone (especially Troma fans!). The Direction is excellent!. Lloyd Kaufman does an excellent! Job here with very good camera work, excellent angles and keeping the film funny and at an extremely fast pace.This is definitely one of the goriest films I have ever seen. We get Ripped out tongue, tons of very bloody impaling's an old lady gets her face squished by car, a very gory baby fight in someone's belly, tons and tons of severed limbs all over the place, cut off arm;s, cut off hands,someone's dick blows up (you heard me), people sh*t themselves,ripped of b*alls,cross out the moth in back of head,2 buckets full of intestines and other goodies, so many people get there intestines ripped out in graphic detail,someone is cut in half, severed head, tons of extremely bloody gunshot wounds,buckets and buckets of blood and so incredibly much more I can't even remember!.The Acting is a lot of fun!. David Mattey is brilliant as both the Toxie's he was funny, charming, was tons of fun to watch, and he seemed to have a ball as Evil Toxie, he truly is The Toxic Avenger and I hope to see him playing Toxie once more if they do an Toxic Avenger 5!. Heidi Sjursen is great fun as both Sarah and Claire, she played it straight, and I had fun watching her, I really dug her. Paul Kyrmse is a lot of fun as Kabukiman especially when ever he got drunk, he was also fun as the evil one too. Joe Fleishaker is hilarious as the sidekick Lard Ass/Chester, and boy can he ever eat!. Michael Budinger is funny as the handicapped Junkie I loved him!. Lisa Terezakis is hilarious as Sweetie Honey and was extremely convincing. Rest of the cast are fine. Overall a must see for everyone!. ****1/2 out of 5
