Ok this bit of news feels like something you might would read on April first.. But rumor/news is going around online, that John Travolta.. Umm yeah that's right "John Travolta" will star in the long talked about TOXIC AVENGER remake..
Back in 2010 it was reported that "Hot Tub Time Machine" director Steve Pink had signed on to helm the remake of "Toxic Avenger," which will be based on the 1984 film.. But the thought/idea to remake the flick seem to go away, the project was dead.. Till now..
In the original story is about Melvin, the Tromaville Health Club mop boy, who inadvertently and naively trusts the hedonistic, contemptuous and vain health club members, to the point of accidentally ending up in a vat of toxic waste. The devastating results then have a transmogrification effect, his alter ego is released, and the Toxic Avenger is born, to deadly and comical results. The local mop boy is now the local Superhero, the saviour of corruption, thuggish bullies and indifference. Troma classic with good make-up effects and stunts, a pleasant surprise indeed..
