This is the best Troma film I've seen, and I've seen mostly all of them. Love it or Hate it, you must see this movie. It works on so many disgusting levels- violence, sex, and just pure disgustingness... and some great cameos abound. Can't wait to see more of the Retard Rebel
There are some Troma films that are just plain bad- and not in a good way. But I still watch them, and kinda like them just because they are Troma films. It is like drinking coffee without cream and sugar. It is bitter; I didn't always like it that way; but I aquired a taste for it. But "Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV" is actually an amazingly entertaining and creative movie that non-Troma fans
could enjoy.
As usual, this film is not for the squeamish with all of its creative gore. The gore isn't realistic by any means. It is quite obvious that you are seeing a melon with a mask and wig being smashed, etc. And anyone could take offense to
something in the film if they actually believed Kaufman was serious- but he isn't. I have the unrated directors edition, so I don't know what the difference is from the R version, but I wouldn't invite my fellow members from church over to watch it.
This film doesn't drag on. The story is even kind of clever- not just Toxie going around and saving the day. Lots of good gags, creative gore scenes, and the
usual nudity sprinkled throughout. The porn Godfather Ron Jeremy plays
Troma's mayor as well. Unfortunately it is rare to find any Troma DVDs new or old in Blockbuster or Hollywood Video stores. So your best bet is to either find a privately owned business that carries lots of independent titles or cough up a few extra bucks to buy it. The DVD is a 2 disc collector's edition and is the director's cut- unrated. There is lots of goodies on the DVD including a 95
minute documentary called "Apocalypse Soon: The Making of Citizen Toxie".

I like it for what it is. It's a LSD trip.
It's offensive to be offensive like you have everything that's not okay to film it's in there it's pretty freaking crazy. Like they must have just survey the most sadistic people they know for ideas and said yes to all of em.
I mean i loved it for what it is, it's just that like if you think there's a deeper meaning to any of this you are mistaken. It's just we are gonna put the most offensive stuff we can think of and just build around it a story. I respect them for that takes balls. It's sometimes so offensive you have to justs stop drop your jaw and go like "wow that's not ok lol". But i'm not offended cause i get it like i know the intention behind this is not rooted in hate or racism or whatever.
I can't rate this a 10/10 it's not Shawshank Redemption here. It's Toxie 4 lol
But if you like feel to watch an insane crazy trip of a movie that dosen't give a single F. It's a pretty crazy experience. Only if you are willing to go through the rabbit hole tho.
5/10

I can see how some people may not like this film due to the fact Troma Movies are an acquired taste. With that said, Citizen Toxie is one of the best independant films I have seen to date. It's a classic horror comedy with a superhero twist. Nudity, gore, and violence. Whats not to like? In my opinion, director Llyod Kaufman gave fans of the series what they had wanted for years. After Toxie II and III (which were suppose to be one movie but due to its length was made into two) this movie is a welcome return to what made the first Toxic Avenger an instant cult classic.

Did you know
- TriviaHugh Hefner was originally going to be in the Tromadu segment. A shot of him saying, "Only the Toxic Avenger knows for sure!" appears in the original teaser trailer. Unfortunately, a cease-and-desist order from Hefner's lawyers forced Troma to remove any and all visual depictions of him from both their advertising and the final film. By all accounts, Hefner himself was initially fine with being in the film, but his lawyers convinced him he was unfairly coerced into being in the movie. Because of this, during the "Special Thanks To" sequence of the final credits, there's a special "No thanks to Hugh Hefner, who asked to be cut out of this film" credit.
- GoofsWhen Toxie and Evil Kabukiman crash their car and it flips, the car comes down and appears to be landing sideways. But in the next shot, it's shown landing straight.

- Crazy creditsFilm Fact: Did you know that in Pilipino (based on Tagalog), the native language of the Phillippines, the phonetic translation of "The Toxic Avenger" is "where are you going with my goat?"
- Alternate versionsThe "R" rated version is heavily cut missing almost all of the gore and sexual content.
