"The Toxic Avenger remake was considered to be an unreleasable movie for several years, but in 2025, the impossible has become reality. With the unrated cut of the film now out in theaters--and garnering positive reviews for its over-the-top violence and general weirdness--the home media release has been set for October 28. Three different Blu-ray editions of The Toxic Avenger are up for preorder now."
"Amazon is offering a steep preorder discount on The Toxic Avenger Collector's Edition Steelbook that drops the price to only $31 (was $50). There's also a 4K edition with a lenticular sleeve, but it's still selling for full price. The Toxic Avenger's standard Blu-ray edition is discounted to $25.85 (was $38), but keep in mind the Steelbook Edition includes 4K and 1080p Blu-ray discs."
"A remake of Troma Entertainment's 1984 Toxic Avenger movie, the new version spent several years in limbo. Outside of a few premieres in 2023 at film festivals, the future of the movie looked uncertain as finding a distributor to help release it to a wider audience proved to be especially challenging. As one anonymous producer remarked at the time, The Toxic Avenger was deemed an "unreleasable" movie due to its gory nature and a prediction that it would only attract a niche audience to theaters."
The Toxic Avenger remake reached theaters in 2025 with an unrated cut earning positive notice for extreme violence and bizarre tone. Home media release is scheduled for October 28 with three Blu-ray editions available for preorder, including a Collector's Edition Steelbook that bundles 4K and 1080p discs, a 4K lenticular sleeve edition, and a standard Blu-ray. Retailers are offering discounts, notably Amazon's Steelbook reduced to $31. The remake is a reimagining of Troma's 1984 film that spent years in distribution limbo after being labeled "unreleasable" due to gore and perceived niche appeal. The cast includes Dinklage, Bacon, Wood, JJ Doherty, Jacob Tremblay, Sarah Niles, and Johnny Coyne.
