I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
I usually judge a movie by how many times I fall asleep watching it but this one is different.This one took me several days to watch, yet it's somehow better than part two.My favorite thing about it is that there isn't a bunch of long drawn-out fight scenes.I'm sure most of Toxie's fans love those but they bore me.Somehow Apocalypse Inc. has returned and they have a new plan to get rid of Toxie.They offer him the money he needs for Claire's eye surgery and he quickly accepts but then turns into a stereotypical 80s douche bag.For the first half of this movie all I could think was how much better part two was but after seeing it all I have changed my mind.The overall story wasn't great but the lack of fights and the extra comedy made this better.Now let's see if I can make it through part four......
This film is bad. This is coming from somebody who usually like B movies. But this film is downright boring. It's better than the Toxic avenger part 2 but not my much. This film unlike Part 2 actually has more than 2 gory kills and isn't made like a Disney film. This film still suffers from a lot of problems like: being boring, bad acting (mostly from the blind chick) and being stupid and unrelated to the original Toxie film. This film could have been worse but not much. The best moment in the film is the first 15 minutes. It started out so cool and the middle was dreadfully boring. So boring that the movie was crawling like a one legged cat on ice. That's how slow it was. Then finally we get to the last 25 minutes which is OK. But still not as good as the first 15 minutes. Watch at own risk. You've been warned.
Toxic Avenger, part III: The Last Temptation of Toxie (1989) is basically the left overs from Toxic Avenger II. The film-makers at Troma took what was left from the first sequel and patched them together to make another film. As a quilt work film, the results are pretty satisfying. It's not horrible but on the other hand, it's no great shakes either. The film is essentially the second half of a three hour movie. If you're a huge Toxic Avenger fan, then this film's for you. Others need not apply.Lloyd Kaufman and company decided to make a couple of extra bucks when they released this movie. He should go back and edit the two together a make an epic version of this movie instead of having a movie that's basically 75 percent filler.Recommended for Troma film fans only
Despite what people will say this is another great Toxic Avenger movie. Part 2 & 3 were made as one so this movie takes place right after the first. Putting Toxie in a yuppie nightmare was a very smart and funny thing to do. I loved the fact that they turned toxie back into a 90 pound weakling(although i wish they would have used Mark Torgle). The beginning was a really good! If you haven't seen this movie you might be afraid by some of the other comments on this movie but don't be. It's a great movie about the temptations of Toxie. Satan is the main bad guy!! How can you not like this movie? A toxic avenger movie with Satan as the main bad guy, what's not to like? Anyways if you haven't seen this movie please go buy it, not rent it, buy it. GO BUY The Toxic Avenger Part III: The Last Temptation of Toxie!
