The latest teaser for The Toxic Avenger is a brilliant little news report featuring testimonials by citizens who have all had run-ins with Toxie. It ends with the Monster hero taking out an eatery full of a gang called The Nasty Lads.

The folks at Legendary are still keeping Toxie’s look under wraps. Folks who were able to attend the premiere at Fantastic Fest know that the makeup used on Peter Dinklage is very much worth the wait.

The synopsis for The Toxic Avenger goes like this:

A horrible toxic accident transforms downtrodden janitor, Winston Gooze into a new evolution of hero: The Toxic Avenger.

Be sure to check out our review for The Toxic Avenger. Which describes the film as:

The Toxic Avenger is a blast and full of Troma attitude. Macon Blair directs the hell out of this thing and makes the entire tidal wave of body parts and fun into an orchestra of gnarly punk rock good times. It is a perfect cross-pollination of  Lloyd Kaufman’s original monster and Blair’s updated Dinklage monster. The film is fueled by glopola, guts and great times. I can’t wait to watch it a thousand more times.

The star-studded film features Peter Dinklage Jacob Tremblay, Taylour Paige, Julia Davis, Jonny Coyne, Elijah Wood, and Kevin Bacon.

The Toxic Avenger will be awesome for both new comers and long-time fans of Troma. Don’t miss it!
