Mondo is currently selling prints of the 1986 Troma classic Toxic Avenger. This is a crazy movie that you have to experience for yourself. This is total madness!
The poster art was created by artist James Bousema, who said: “The Toxic Avenger strikes a special balance between tasteless comedy and heartfelt heroics.
“When I had the opportunity to design this poster, I had this balance in mind. Silly in nature, but posed like a pulp fantasy poster. All toxic sludge and muscle.
Art director Josh Mandeville added: “James put the same love and care into this unlikely hero from New Jersey as he did for many of his apocalyptic hell metal album covers.
“As the first cult horror movie that left me permanently scarred as a child, I couldn’t be more excited to have James on this poster. I can already smell the hydrogen sulfide fumes coming off it!

this Toxic Avenger is a horror comedy that tells the story of Melvin Ferd, a nerdy and socially awkward janitor who works at a health club in the fictional town of Troville.
After being bullied mercilessly by fitness enthusiasts, Melvin fell into a vat of toxic waste, which disfigured him but also gave him superhuman strength and power. He transforms into the Toxic Avenger, a grotesque yet heroic figure who sets out to rid Tromaville of corruption and crime, using his newfound powers to brutally punish wrongdoers.
The film combines over-the-top violence, dark humor, and campy comedy for a unique and absurd take on the superhero genre.
