So far they're not saying but it wouldn't surprise me if they used the same master that was used for the 88 release, you know, being Troma and all they'll cut corners when and where they can. Rabid Grannies proved that.

Rock! Shock! Pop!
I watched this for the first time the other day. Bored the tits off me. I really want to like Troma flicks. I love Lloyd. Love the Troma ethos. Can't stand the films.

Try Terror Firmer. I think that one speaks to fellow filmmakers pretty well.

Terror Firmer is my favourite Troma. But the making of Terror Firmer is still a lot better than the film for me.

A lot of truth to Lloyd's speech: "If someone dies on my set, then I'm going to blow my fucking brains out!"

Enter Melvin Ferd the Third, an aspiring earth scientist determined to clean up the toxic waste problem.

From Joe DiPietro and David Bryan (original founding member and keyboardist/vocalist for Bon Jovi), the Tony Award-winning team behind the hit West End musical 'Memphis', this acclaimed rock musical dubbed "an intoxicating blast of fun" by The Daily Telegraph in their 5-star rave review and the Daily Express says '"To anyone that has seen the Book of Mormon, this is a must-see younger brother of a show!"
