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.
