Italian and Japanese films are definitely the world leaders in the memorable movie title stakes. However, there have been some interesting little titles from American and UK cinema.
An interesting title does not necessarily mean a good film. A lot of the films on my list are in fact barely tolerable and their title is the only good thing about them. However, I am continuing in my usual vein to present cult movies to anyone who views my writing. In fact, I feel it is my duty to provoke debate and awareness about low brow, low budget, cult cinema in a world surrounded by anodyne Hollywood mulch.
Some of these films may be trash – but like a dog returning to its vomit, I feel compelled to review them. I must be the world’s biggest masochist. But I love it!

This is a Troma movie.

Toxie, the affectionately named mop-wielding character of The Toxic Avenger series from the 1980s will be severely cleaning up his act as Akiva Goldsman and others take on the task of producing a remake of the film franchise that will be suitable for family viewing.
The original film centred on Melvin, a wimpy mop boy at a gym who is bullied by the more muscular members, leading him to escape out a window and fall into a vat of toxic waste. The radioactive swill transforms him into a giant Hulk-like superhero who gets his revenge on the bullies and wreaks havoc on polluters in New Jersey. The anti-hero went on to star in a number of schlocky, gory tales including Surf Nazis Must Dieie, Rabid Grannies and Stuff Stephanie In The Incinerator, but for this new iteration he will become a green superhero for these environmentally conscious times.
