In yesterday’s batch of trade-ins we unearthed a treasure trove of Troma Team treats! If you’re already familiar with Troma Team, you know this means lots of blood and guts, boobs and butts and generally cheesy acting and special effects. In short: low budget entertainment at its finest!

First up is the previously-mentioned Cannibal! The Musical, a very early effort from Trey Parker and Matt Stone of South Park fame. Seriously, a musical. About a cannibal. Based on a true story. Not kidding. (okay, sure… no real evidence exists that Al munched on his companions, but still. A musical. About a cannibal!)

Next is The Toxic Avenger II, the very popular sequel to the at-least-as-popular original. Tromaville Health Club mop-boy Melvin is exposed to some radioactive goo from the local nuke plant, turning him into the titular local superhero. In this sequel, Toxie takes on the evil Japanese company Apocalypse, Inc.

Moving along (careful you don’t step in that green gunk there), we have Terror Firmer. A Troma Team film crew, led by director Larry Benjamin (played by actual Troma Team founder Lloyd Kaufman) is “trying to make some art” when they’re set upon by a sexually-conflicted bomb-wielding serial killer. I couldn’t make this stuff up.

Speaking of which, just who exactly is responsible for Killer Condom? Germans, apparently (not knocking Germans, just stating the facts). It does boast H.R. Giger (famous for designing the xenomorph in the Alien movies) as “creative consultant” so there’s that.

Then there’s the double feature Psycho A Go-Go/Rawhide Terror. Psycho A Go-Go, originally produced in 1965 and filmed by Vilmos Zsisgmond (The Deer Hunter, Close Encounters Of The Third Kind!) was resurrected in 1972’s Blood Of Ghastly Horror starring John Carradine. It’s presented here in its original form, much to the delight of horror fans. Rawhide Terror is a true “lost movie” having been all but forgotten since it was made in 1934! Originally planned as a 10-part serial, it was eventually reedited to create this creepy cowboy tale. spooooky!

And finally we have one of the most popular cult classics of all time: Bloodsucking Freaks. Probably not for the squeamish: “No one can remain unmoved by the intense scenes of carnage–from the human dartboard to the infamous brain sucking scene. Bloodsucking Freaks is guaranteed to turn stomachs.”  ”nuff said.
