In A Toxic Environment, fans can go behind the scenes with cast and crew interviews, prosthetics and effects setup and an extended look at the twisted world of The Toxic Avenger – journeying through American culture to learn the story of Toxie, the Jersey-born hero, alongside Super Tromette Tiffany Shepis, the dark angel of Troma.

The horror/comedy The Toxic Avenger is written and directed by Blair (I Don’t Feel At Home in This World Anymore, writer for Marvel Comics/Dark Horse Comics), is produced by Legendary Entertainment and distributed by Cineverse. The film is based on Troma Entertainment President Lloyd Kaufman’s original The Toxic Avenger franchise.

When a downtrodden janitor, Winston Gooze (Dinklage), is exposed to a catastrophic toxic accident, he’s transformed into a new kind of hero: The Toxic Avenger. Now, Toxie must rise from outcast to savior, taking on ruthless corporate overlords and corrupt forces who threaten his son, his friends, and his community. In a world where greed runs rampant – justice is best served radioactive.
