Luke and Jae dive into The Toxic Avenger — gleefully gory, gloriously weird, and a long-awaited modern revival of the cult classic. Directed by Macon Blair and starring Peter Dinklage, the film reimagines Troma’s iconic anti-hero for a new generation, blending outrageous humour, splatter-filled chaos, and genuine heart.
They discuss how this reboot pays tribute to the original while carving out its own toxic identity, the standout performances (yes, including Kevin Bacon’s villainous turn), and what this could mean for the future of cult cinema.

Directed by Pierre Perifel and co-directed by JP Sans, The Bad Guys 2 is the animated heist action-comedy film loosely based on the children’s book series The Bad Guys by Aaron Blabley. It is the sequel to The Bad Guys (2022) and has the primary voice from that film returning in this one.
Everyone's favourite felons are back, and this time, they've got company. The crackerjack crew of animal outlaws are now-reformed Bad Guys who are trying (very, very hard) to be good, but instead find themselves hijacked into a high-stakes, globe-trotting heist, masterminded by a new team of criminals they never saw coming: The Bad Girls. We break down all things from the voice cast - new and old, the animation, the Aaron Blabley books, and the potential next adventure for the Bad Guys.
