8/10
Toxie against the devil
22 March 2024
Continuing with the adventures of Toxie, the trilogy concludes with this film that follows the same course as the second installment. It continues with a cartoonish humor and returns a little to the gore that so characterized the first film. The title of the film obviously refers to The Last Temptation Of Christ and plays on a similar theme. Toxie is naively tricked into working with the Apocalypse Corporation in order to restore Claire's sight. You might think Toxie is too naïve to fall for such a deception, but it's part of the film's absurd humor. What could be somewhat incoherent is that the film brings back Cigar Face, but it stops being so absurd when it is discovered who really owns Apocalypse. Toxie does not know that he is involved in a conflict beyond mortals that makes him see that he is still a human being, but that he finds the path of the hero leading him to a fun fight against evil in person. This may be the most absurd and bizarre film of the trilogy, but only those who understand Troma's humor will realize that the main objective of this film is that. This is a movie that is really bad and does not stop self-parodying to the point of breaking the fourth wall. It does not seek to be the same or better than the first film, it is a film that wants to be bad to the point of being funny. The Toxic Avenger Part 3 does not fail in that and that is why it is a film that can be enjoyed for its strange humor and bizarre plot as long as you do not take it seriously. My final rating for this movie is an 8/10.
