Get the kid and the bike because we're heading to The Mexican Place to check out Troma Entertainment's crown jewel: The Toxic Avenger (1984). Just in time to celebrate the release of Macon Blair's remake, too!

Join us as we offer a primer on all things Toxie before diving into this ridiculously silly (and charming!) little film. The Toxic Avenger feels like a live-action cartoon that's been dumped in a vat of extremely transgressive toxic waste, and it all (mostly) works!

Plus: an unexpected gang of queers, masturbating to photos of dead children, "Body Talk", and swapping out human heads for cantaloupes.

CW: Dog death, child death, attempted sexual assault and the use of many, many slurs. 

Questions? Comments? Snark? Connect with the boys on BlueSky, Instagram, Youtube, Letterboxd, Facebook, or join the Facebook Group or the Horror Queers Discord to get in touch with other listeners.
