While we wait for Macon Blair’s upcoming remake of The Toxic Avenger, Troma has announced today that the original movie’s brand new restoration is now available to stream.
You’ll find it only on Troma’s dedicated streaming service, Troma Now.
“This Toxic Avenger in 4K is historic! It has already played to full houses throughout the Alamo Drafthouse circuit and others,” says Troma Prez, Lloyd Kaufman. “Toxie has a new life. And Michael Herz and I are very proud of his mopping up on Troma-Now!”
In the wake of The Toxic Avenger, Troma Now will premiere 4K restorations and new transfers from the original materials of a number of classics on the 15th of every month.
Rabid Grannies (1988) will be coming to Troma Now in 4K this year, in its original 96 minute uncut format, scanned and restored from its 35mm interpositive.
Mother’s Day (1980), Charles Kaufman’s cult classic horror film, will premiere in April. Newly scanned and restored in 4K from its 35mm original camera negative.
Bloodsucking Freaks (1976), Joel M. Reed’s equally celebrated and reviled film will premiere in 4K, scanned and restored from its 35mm internegative.
Other titles coming this year include The Last Horror Film in 4K, a newly restored transfer of Redneck Zombies, and more Troma classics like you’ve never seen them before.
