A first look into the abyss of absurdity - fresh teaser for The Toxic Avenger remake: blood, thrash and a reboot of a classic
On Friday, Legendary revealed a brief trailer for "The Toxic Avenger" following the film's premiere at Fantastic Fest last month.
Here's What We Know
The first teaser for "The Toxic Avenger" starring Peter Dinklage provides a pretty epic and gory clip that reveals the new film's slight absurdity.
The Toxic Avenger is written and directed by Macon Blair, who previously worked on I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore. The film will continue the franchise originally created by Lloyd Kaufman.
Here's What The Movie Is About
Set in a fictional world, the film tells the story of Winston, a typical powerless man who works as a caretaker at a Garb-X fitness club. He is diagnosed with an incurable disease, which can only be saved with the help of expensive therapy. However, his greedy and overbearing boss refuses to pay for the treatment. Deciding to take matters into his own hands and rob his company, Winston falls into a container of toxic waste, mutates and transforms into an ugly and then heroic monster who will have to restore order in the city and take revenge on all those who did him an injustice.
When We Can Expect It
The new The Toxic Avenger doesn't have an exact release date yet.
