The REAL American Hero!

He's cleaned up Tromaville. He's conquered Tokyo. And now, The Toxic Avenger faces his deadliest challenge yet in The Toxic Avenger Part III: The Last Temptation of Toxie! The Toxic Avenger and The Toxic Avenger Part II set a new standard for independent action/comedies, transcending their origins and becoming a bona fide worldwide phenomenon. The Toxic Avenger Part III continues this tradition in high style with eye-popping, gut-wrenching special effects, explosive action, and the unmistakably Tromatic sense of humor.

Times are hard for Toxie. What's a hideously deformed creature of superhuman size and strength to do after he's eliminated crime from his hometown? Desperate to raise money for the experimental surgery that could restore his blind fiancee's eyesight, Toxie accepts a lucrative job with the evil multinational conglomerate Apocalypse Inc. Now, Toxie's transforming into an even more monstrous creature: a yuppie. And all of Tromaville is paying the price of Toxie's Faustian bargain. The Toxic Avenger must defeat his own inner demons before taking on the Devil himself in a battle royale, while the fate of Tromaville hangs in the balance.

The Toxic Avenger Part III: The Last Temptation of Toxie continues the adventures of one of cinema's greatest superhuman heroes. The Toxic Avenger movies are amongst the most beloved and popular titles in the whole Troma library of over 1,000 films. They've spawned comic books, action figures, and a nationally syndicated animated TV series, while Toxie himself has become one of the most instantly recognizable characters of modern times. The Toxic Avenger Part Ill is one of Toxie's... and Troma's... biggest and best movies!
