Director Lloyd Kaufman and co-star Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD join Tromaville’s beloved super-human hero in celebration of Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger Part IV‘s illustrious Dallas premiere. |
The historic Inwood Theatre, witness to more than 50 years of memorable achievements in film (and most Troma flicks), proudly hosted the event sponsored by The Dallas Observer. |
Eager fans were already lined up at the box office 30 minutes before showtime. Inwood management hailed the turnout as among their best yet for a Midnight Movie. |

Mr. Kaufman signs a fan’s DVD of the original Toxic Avenger (among CineSchlock-O-Rama’s highly recommended titles). |
My request turns into a frantic, impromptu photo op with Kaufman snagging anyone and everyone nearby to join the hijinks, including super Tromette Jessie, fan Gary Dowell (left) and Inwood manager Cole. |
Upon arrival inside the theatre, Kaufman and his creations are applauded by an anxious audience. |
Lloyd explains that Citizen Toxie is "a shot-by-shot replication of the original classic by Orsen Wells, of course, Citizen Kane. The only difference is that Troma put back into the classic all the lesbian scenes, the head-crushing scenes and the car crashes." |
Yours truly joins the festivities (left). Lest anyone be confused, I’m NOT the one in the skull ‘n’ crossbones skirt, as I simply don’t have the gams for it. Show YOUR support for independent cinema, and have a heck of a time, by attending the next Troma event near you. Send comments to: noel@cineschlocker.net |
