Plot

This article needs an improved plot summary. (January 2022)

When the notorious Diaper Mafia take hostage the Tromaville School for the Very Special, only the Toxic Avenger and his morbidly obese sidekick Lardass can save Tromaville. However, an explosion results in some unforeseeable consequences where it creates a dimensional tear between Tromaville and its dimensional mirror image Amortville. While the Toxic Avenger (Toxie) is trapped in Amortville, Tromaville comes under the control of the superhuman powered hero's evil doppelgänger the Noxious Offender (Noxie). With the citizens of Tromaville unaware of the switch, Mayor Goldberg decides to combat "Toxie" by calling in every superhero he can afford. Meanwhile, Toxie's wife Sarah becomes pregnant with two babies from two different fathers. It is up to Toxie to return to Tromaville to stop Noxie's rampage and come to his wife's aid.

Critical response

Unlike The Toxic Avenger's first two sequels, The Toxic Avenger Part II and The Toxic Avenger Part III: The Last Temptation of Toxie, which both received negative reviews, Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV received positive reviews and currently has a 70% "fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[2] Stephen Holden of The New York Times opined, "If the take-no-prisoners humor of Citizen Toxie is very funny, the movie's relentless comic excess is ultimately a little exhausting."[3]

Sequel

Shortly after the release of the fourth entry, director Lloyd Kaufman announced a fifth entry titled Toxic Twins: The Toxic Avenger V. As showcased in Citizen Toxie's ending, Toxie's wife Sarah was pregnant with twins and the film will revolve around them. In 2010 a press release announced that Collyn McCoy would serve as the screenwriter.[4] Kaufman shot promo footage for the film in 2013 and 2016, but currently Troma has not begun official production on the sequel.
