O2D The opening scene is the only thing about this movie that isn't terrible.While the plot is lame, it's not even the worst thing about this mess.They changed everything about Toxie and the women in his life.I can accept that they got different actresses to play his mom and girlfriend but why did they have to completely change the characters?In the first movie his girlfriend was a very normal person but in this one she's running around like an idiot, bumping into everything.Why did they feel the need to do that to her?Anyway, this movie starts with him trying to explain all the things that have changed in Tromaville and he mentions that he took a job at the center for the blind where Claire spent most of her time.He never says she works there(And how could she?She's blind.)but the whole time they are there she is telling him what to do.Then he goes to Japan and it gets even worse.I wish I could go back in time and not watch this.
Scarecrow-88 The "Hideously Deformed Monster Hero with Superhuman Size and Strength" returns to combat a new enemy, Apocalypse Incorporated, who have designs on destroying Tromaville, turning it into a toxic dump, returning pollutants to the environment. But, he is convinced by his shrink(..who works for Apoc Inc)to seek out his father's whereabouts in Tokyo, Japan, with Tromaville's citizens falling prey to Apoc Inc's army of malicious foot soldiers. Will Toxie find pops and return home to save the day? Or, will Apoc Inc rule Tromaville for good? Inferior sequel to THE TOXIC AVENGER, is incredibly silly in a cartoonish way, maintaining the gore quotient including plenty of nudity and foul behavior. The film has the novelty of being set in Tokyo for a large portion of the running time, milking the fish-out-of-water formula for all it's worth as locals often stare in disbelief and fear as Toxie walks the streets seeking out the identity of his supposed father, getting help from a girl he saved from sexual assault. Toxie runs into a series of altercations with villains who work for a mob boss he mistakes for his father. The film shows Tromaville's citizens(..including the elderly, blind, and children)being accosted by the evil minions of Apoc Inc.Unlike the previous film, the sequel is narrated by Toxie(..an annoyance in my opinion that wasn't needed)throughout. The film is essentially an ultra-violent slapstick comedy adventure with Toxie punching holes into faces, crushing bodies, ripping limbs off, the works. There are explosions, a high speed chase where Toxie commands a taxi driver to pursue a biker with a bomb, and even martial arts battles where our hero duels with Japanese thugs on Tokyo streets. The ability of directors Kaufman and Herz to find people with hideous acting is unprecedented for they succeed in casting plenty of Japanese who are just as terrible as their American counterparts. Plenty of bug-eyes and overacting, and, you betcha, not one, but TWO transvestites(..Toxie even tangles with one in Japan, who taunts him as our hero attempts to walk away)who get pummeled for their troubles. I'm happy I had the chance to see the sequel uncut for the first time, the way Herz and Kaufman intended. Seeing Toxie in Japan is as odd as the scene where Jason Voorhies stands in the middle of Times Square..that alone is worth checking this sequel out if you are a Troma fan.
Rautus The Toxic Avenger Part II may not be has good as the first but it is does have it's moments and is quite good. The gore seems to be limited at parts but they're still is some nice gore effects. The plot is set some years after the first and now Tromaville is a nice place to live (The Mayor in the first film mentioned about it)since The Toxic Avenger cleaned up the city from crime but now that crime's gone Toxie is feeling depressed since he's got no job to do so he and his girlfriend Claire work in a home for the blind but the corporation know as Apocalipse Inc destroy the place with Toxie inside but it's not long before he breaks out and crushes some of them.Knowing that has long as The Toxic Avenger is in Tromaville they can't control it so they send him a fake letter from his long lost father in Japan so he heads off to meet him leaving his home town for them to take over. In Japan Toxie meets with a young Japanese girl and they go off to help look for him.Soon they find Big Mac Junko but the family reunion is cut short when he finds out that his dad is a criminal so after a chase through Japan Toxie confronts his father but his dad has a weapon to kill him and this anti-troma tons, after beating his father the container with the anti-troma tons breaks knocking Toxie out.He wakes up with some Sumo Wreslers who help him and teach him some Sumo moves, he then sets off to Tromaville again where he finds that Apocalipse Inc has took over everything so he takes them on and saves Tromaville.The Toxic Avenger Part II is not too bad and is quite good, it's worth a watch.
whammy666 After I saw the Toxic Avenger I rushed to the video store to rent this. I could not wait to see Toxie bash more bad guys in another fun, gory, nude filled film from Troma. However, I it was quite a letdown. Well, I rented the R version, in which the gore is absent. Unrated is a lot better, some awesome gore in the opening scene. "wheelchair" kill is awesome. SO there is some good gore, some good action. What's wrong with this film you ask? No original actors. TOxie obviously changed actors. Toxie gets a new, uglier, more annoying girlfriend, Claire. She is nothing compared to Sara. Claire is just...annoying. But thank God she is not in it too much, since he is in Tokyo most of the film. The girl he meets in Tokyo however, is not bad looking and is not annoying. YAY! Also, his mother looks younger than she did in the first film. If it had the same actors it would be better, yet this does not live up to the original. Still funny, and entertaining of course. See this UNRATED.
