Final Take

It was time that we watched this movie, having seen a number of other troma movies but never this one. It was fine. There’s a tone to these troma movies, where nobody is acting normal at all. The most normal person in the whole thing is the horribly disfigured mutant hero, which is probably the point. The rules worked well, there were mustaches and explosions, and it was ridiculous enough to laugh at most of the time.
