6/10
Absolute perfection
4 January 2024
I don't know what it says about me that this movie is everything I want in a movie. I gave it a 6 because I understand that people who are not me may not love it like I do, but for me, this is a 10. If I were to make movies, this is the kind of movie I'd make.

Okay, enough of that. Though I didn't dislike Toxic Avenger 2 and 3, they were a step down from Toxic Avenger 1. The franchise drifted into the cartoonish, like the Class of Nuke 'Em High sequels. Citizen Toxie feels like a return to form for the franchise, and as there haven't been any new sequels since, it serves as a triumphant conclusion to the series.

I doubt I can add much to what has been written about this. It's wonderfully politically incorrect--daring in 2000 when it was made and absolutely scandalous by 2023 standards. For that reason alone you should buy it before the thought police deem it wrongthink. Hot babes, rampant gratuitous nudity, buckets of gore, numerous and entertaining kills--what more do you need? Perhaps Phoebe Legere reprising her role as Claire would have been nice, but unfortunately we don't get that. Also, they did my boy Sgt. Kabukiman dirty.

Not sure what to tell you. If movies like Frankenhooker, Basket Case, and Class of Nuke 'Em High are your thing, I think you'll love Citizen Toxie.
