After watching the remastered high definition bluray the night before, this standard def ‘alternate Japanese cut’ certainly took me back to the Toxic Avenger I’ve always remembered – dark, muddy and sleazy. But I’d never seen the Japanese cut before. I found myself not being sure if I’d just not paid enough attention the night before, or if I was seeing new scenes. Googling it afterward, yeah, there were a bunch of extended scenes and some weird parts where they’d just repeat footage for no apparent reason. I think I’ll just stick to the high def version as my go-to Toxic Avenger from now on.
