THE TOXIC AVENGER Heads Home To Digital Later This Month
Macon Blair's Troma reboot stars Peter Dinklage, Kevin Bacon, Taylour Paige, Elijah Wood and Luisa Guerreiro.
If you missed The Toxic Avenger during its fundraising theatrical run, no fear, because Toxie (and his monster dong) is heading home as Macon Blair's Troma reboot hits Digital at the end of this month, with a physical media release to follow in October.
Come September 30, you'll be able to catch the long-awaited The Toxic Avenger on all good Digital outlets, and see Peter Dinklage in his role as downtrodden janitor Winston Gooze, who, after a freak accident, transforms into the mutant vigilante we know and love:
“Armed with his signature mop, the unlikely hero battles freaks, gangsters and corrupt CEOs while trying to save his relationship with his son. The story channels the subversive gonzo energy of the original Toxic Avenger while delivering a fresh, contemporary twist,”
Starring alongside Dinklage in the officially Certified Fresh pic from Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting are Kevin Bacon, Elijah Wood, Jacob Tremblay, Julia Davis, Taylour Paige and Luisa Guerreiro, who provides Toxie's amazing physical performance.
A DVD and Blu-ray release of The Toxic Avenger follows on October 28, as well as a 4K + Blu-ray Collector’s Edition release, which includes a limited edition lenticular O-Sleeve, a Steelbook – 4K + Blu-ray (Collector’s Edition), and an Amazon exclusive 4K UHD + Blu-ray Collector’s Edition, that also includes Lloyd Kaufman’s original The Toxic Avenger (1984) on 4K UHD.
Special Features on the Collector’s Edition release include:
- A Toxic Environment: Best of Behind-the-Scenes
- Director Commentary with Macon Blair
- Toxic Shock with Tiffany Shepis
- 40th Anniversary of The Toxic Avenger (1984)
