God lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can't, not without your help. But you're not helping. Why is that? I read the script, bitch. I know we're all replicants. Also, if you meet god turtle on your path, kill him.

It was the birthplace of masterpieces like Toxic Avenger, Nuke ‘em High, and my personal favorite from the late 80’s era: Sgt Kabukiman NYPD.

But I figured working with a shoestring budget tended to mean you need to be reasonably competent at what you're doing, or at least have a good place to learn.

I've only seen Toxic Avenger when I was really high but my conclusion is it is better than it should be

syscall girl posted:I've only seen Toxic Avenger when I was really high but my conclusion is it is better than it should be Pretty much everything Troma does is incredible. You don't need a gigantic budget to make entertaining movies. I haven't seen every Troma movie but I have yet to see one that wasn't entertaining. Chopper Chicks in Zombietown is still one of my favorite movies ever. It's a stupid low budget zombie movie. It knows it's a stupid low budget zombie movie. It just runs with the fact that it's a stupid low budget zombie movie and refuses to stop for any reason, ever.

There was a Toxic Avenger cartoon for children. It was even more ridiculous than the premise makes it sound. Catchy theme song.

My mom tells me a story about how we rented Toxic Avenger for my brother's birthday sleepover. Until then, we'd only seen the TV edit which of course leaves out the graphic rape scene. Oops!

Yes, please elaborate on Linda Hamilton's breasts.

In the sex scene with Kyle Reese, she's topless for most of it. It was heavily cut in basically every TV screening and a lot of the home VHS copies as well. punchymcpunch posted:terminator is a better movie than terminator 2

Darkhold posted:Yeah it's a real Alien/Aliens thing. They're both great but they're great in different ways. That's why I wish they hadn't spoiled Arnold playing the good terminator in the second movie in the trailers. That would have been a nice twist, especially since Robert Patrick looked so clean cut in it.

The opposite of this is done perfectly in Once Upon a Time in the West, when a well-known actor that everyone was used to see playing the good guy Henry Fonda, showed up on screen as the bad guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqTfBysL0wE

I never saw the Street Sharks show but had a few toys from it. They were rubber and chewable. (which says something about my age at the time)
