Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV is a 2000 American superhero horror comedy film directed by Lloyd Kaufman and produced by Troma Entertainment. It is the fourth installment of the Toxic Avenger series, which revolves around a mutated janitor-turned-superhero named Toxie. The film begins with a nuclear explosion that causes Toxie and his girlfriend Claire to switch dimensions with their evil doppelgangers. Toxie finds himself in an alternate Tromaville where everything is backwards and the town is ruled by the corrupt Mayor Goldberg. Meanwhile, evil Toxie is in the real world wreaking havoc and causing chaos.
As Toxie navigates this strange new world, he teams up with a group of misfits including a blind woman, a wheelchair-bound man, and a gay fashion designer. Together, they set out to stop Mayor Goldberg and his gang of criminals from taking over Tromaville and destroying the environment.
Throughout the film, there are numerous over-the-top and gory scenes, including decapitations, dismemberments, and exploding heads. The movie also tackles a range of social and political issues, including police brutality, ableism, and LGBT rights.
The performances in Citizen Toxie are intentionally campy and exaggerated, with David Mattey delivering a memorable performance as the titular character. There are also appearances from iconic Troma alumni such as The Tromettes and Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD.
Overall, Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV is a fun and irreverent addition to the Toxic Avenger franchise. It is a must-see for fans of low-budget horror-comedies, and a testament to Troma's commitment to independent filmmaking.
Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV is a 2000 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 48 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.9 and a MetaScore of 41.
