Get ready to bring the radioactive hero home! The remake of The Toxic Avenger, starring Peter Dinklage, is making its way to your living room.
The new Toxic Avenger, deemed controversial due to its content, has been winning over critics, who have called it “charming,” “hilarious,” and “a cult sensation.” The all-star cast, including Kevin Bacon, Elijah Wood, Jacob Tremblay, and Taylour Paige, has received major praise for their killer performances.
Toxic Avenger follows down-on-his-luck janitor Winston Gooze (Dinklage), who gets exposed to some nasty toxic waste. Instead of you know, just dying, he’s transformed into a hideous-looking yet heroic monster. He utilizes his newfound powers to take on corrupt corporate executives and protect his friends and community. It’s a movie where justice is best served radioactive.
