Man, I havent seen many of these, but the best Ive seen so far is SGT. Kabukiman NYPD. The Toxic Avenger is good as well. Any thoughts on the best B-Movie studio?

Toxie and Class of Nuke 'em High are definitely my favorites. Troma's War and Tromeo & Juliet were a bit disappointing to me though. Still been meaning to see Terror Firmer as I hear it's really good... have the DVD, just haven't watched it yet.

Man, you guys must be lucky. I used to live near a Video Store (it closed a few years ago) and it used to have a whole lot of troma films. Now its closed theres no other place where i can find them except for the odd time on cable tv, and even then theyre heavily cut. And what happened to the Toxic Crusaders TV Show.

The latest Troma movies are getting a little too dopey and self-refrential. Like they make a point to show how rinky-dink they are by making zucker-brothers-esque jokes about it. Troma movies were always silly, but they were better when they were at least seeming like they were TRYING to look like a real movie. Also theres a lot of bad scary-movie-esque satire.

I"m talking mostly about Terror Firmer and Toxic Avenger 4. BUUUUUUUUT they are worth owning for the FULL-LENGTH documentaries that are included, which are amazing, and infinately more entertaining than the movies themselves. I can't wait for Lloyd's next movie to come out on DVD specifically becasue of the documentaries.

Hahaha Lloyd's on my MySpace friends list and not yours!! Nananananana!!

Seriously, I haven't watched any of the newer Troma flicks, the last one I've caught was Tromeo and Juliet, and that was a godawful amount of long time ago. I think I mighta reviewed it for the main site.

[edit] Cannibal: The Musical has gotten obnoxiously quote-worthy amongst my friends lately.

After recently watching Class of Nuke 'em high again I'm gonna say that, as it's stuck in my head.

OH, don't forget Baconhead!

I love the Troma DVDs, especially for the massive amount of extra features available.

Man, I forgot that Cannibal! The Musical was by troma. I love that movie, I have most of the snowman song memorised.

Also, anyone remember the Toxic Crusaders saturday morning cartoon show. That was awesome.

Cannibal! The musical wasn't by troma. It's by Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Troma's just distributing it.
And bloodsucking freaks is also good. I wonder why won't they make a toxic avenger game for the xbox360? I'd buy it.

Both of the Nuke'em High movies are on right now on this specialty Cable Channel. Theyre not as good As I thought that they would be. As the first movie didnt pick up until the end, but it was still enjoyable. The second one, which is on right now, is not enjoyably bad, its regular bad.At least the Toxic Avenger is on after this.

But one of the things I enjoy about Troma films are the life lessons that can be learned from these movies. Besides the Eco Friendly message the films portray, they taught me many things. Like in the Toxic Avenger, I learned that You cant judge a person by the way they look/

Many of the movies Troma distributes weren't made by Troma.
And while I never thought about it till you made me, a Toxic Avenger game would rox the sox.

If they actually put enough money into it, as they would with say, Max Payne, I believe they'd make a good game. It's all dictated by the budget.

I though Terror Firmer was AWFUL! Even for a Troma movie it was pretty bad.

Cannibal! The Musical is absolute brilliance. And Dian kills me.

Has anyone checked out any Full Moon Productions? They're pretty funny too. I used to rent them all the time but the one that really sticks out was called 'Sideshow'. The Inside-Out chick mutilated a kid by sticking his face in her exposed stomach acid. Priceless...
