This review is from: Citizen Toxie - The Toxic Avenger IV (Unrated Director's Cut) (DVD)
This film was sent to me by a friend who also appreciates movies so bad they're good. At the end of the day though, this movie is so bad it's, well, bad. I love grade-Z cinema as much as the next person, although I am not amazingly fond of pointless gore (that's problem number one in this case), but the real problem here is that Lloyd Kaufman has taken what had the potential to be an amusing premise at the beginning of the series and gone out of his way to attempt to offend everyone. He does so, but mostly because of his lame attempts at satire. Question: is it absolutely hilarious to mock and parody brilliant theoretical physicist Steven Hawking? Apparently Kaufman thinks so, although I don't know anybody else who does. Likewise the premise of the "Diaper Mafia" taking over the "Tromaville School for the Very Special" leaves something to be desired in the taste department. I will skip the details of the extreme requisite flatulence, blind girlfriend forced lesbianism (with translator), and inter-uterine evil-twin mop fight, and just suffice it to say that at no time did this film rise from the gutter to attempt humor: in the gutter is where it should stay. I love bad movies, I love parodies, and I love satire, but this film fails on more levels than most other films even attempt. Like I said in the title, when Ron Jeremy provides the taste, refinement, and decorum in a movie, you know there is a flaw in the film. In attempting to be fair to the film I will say that people who actually do like the movie (for whatever reason) will love this packaging. There are multiple audio commentaries, a 95 minute long (it seems like forever) "making of" feature, outtakes, behind the scenes stuff, etc. The whole thing takes two DVDs, and in this case I can definitely say that the extras are more enjoyable viewing than the feature. The premise of Toxie having an evil twin ("The Noxious Offender", or "Noxie") is actually a good one. This could have been a good B-movie satire; it's a shame that it became a cheap exploitation piece, and an un-funny one at that.
