If you were a young movie nerd in the 1980s you had to have an opinion on these crazy new Troma movies. And if you wanted to know what a Troma movie was all about, you just had to start with the certifiably insane horror/superhero satire known as The Toxic Avenger. Big thanks to guest Ed Havens (@The80sMoviePod) for suggesting this one, and for bringing some solid historical context.
