In the dark streets of Tromaville, a scrawny janitor whom no one ever looks at falls into barrels overflowing with the town’s toxic waste. This absurd film by Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz centers on the story of an extraordinary antihero born in the midst of a system rife with filth and decay. The cycle of contempt and bullying that begins in the town’s squalid gym evolves into a pitch-black thirst for revenge. In these grindhouse-inspired streets, where horror and comedy intertwine, the concept of justice takes on a completely mutated form. Emerging from the darkness of the night with a mop in hand, this freak of nature embarks on a ruthless purge against corrupt officials and con artists.
