Made on a low budget with a lot of brains, laughs and a complete disregard for good taste, this film finally makes a landing from the previously faceless Troma film group - becoming a flagship character of sorts.
The picture features a nerdy, hopeless outcast who is reborn as a muscular, mutated green warrior with a profound, theatrical delivery. Stylized violence, mainstream attitudes about beauty and success and simplistic "Hollywood" moralizing are fodder for satire in this well made, and frankly bizarre film from Lloyd Kaufman's company.
