“The Toxic Avenger” (*1/2 out of four) was a mindless remake of the unwatchable 1984 Trauma horror comedy that somehow is now regarded as “a cult classic”; once again, a nerd janitor (Peter Dinklage) becomes transformed by toxic chemicals into a bloodthirsty avenger and does battle with a sinister underworld villain (Kevin Bacon- and what the hell is he doing in this movie?). Nowhere near as toxically awful and inept as the original and is colorfully shot by Dana Gonzales but still pretty ugly and stupid. For diehard toxie/Trauma fans only. Filmed in 2023 and languished on the shelf for years.
