Official synopsis:
“While the original film followed the fate of Melvin Ferd Junko III (Mitch Cohen), who goes from zero to toxic hero in a case of harassment that went wrong, the contemporary approach of Macon Blair follows a horribly deformed creature of superhuman size and own force.
“Peter Dinklage plays the oppressed concierge Winston Goze who, after falling into a tub of toxic waste, becomes nothing less than The Toxic Avenger. This timely reinvention is up to the height of environmental issues, since Winston faces the evil forces of greed and corruption to save his son, his friends already his community.”
