4.6 - The Toxic Avenger
Happy Halloween everyone! We've finally reached the end of our horror series and we've decided to go out on a high note...by paying Adam's relatives a visit in beautiful Tromaville, NJ. This week, we subvert the slasher genre with the 1984 exploitation classic, The Toxic Avenger. Listen as the boys discuss the New York Grindhouse scene of the 70s and 80s, how a Yale alumni went on to become his generation's Roger Corman and the seedy politics of Regan's America (namely, Iran-Contra). Get ready to scream, laugh and question our sanity this week on Speaking Cinema.
