German art and culture has helped to shape western art and culture since the middle ages, and to honor that tradition Troma Entertainment is releasing the highly-anticipated 3-film DVD, Mutantz, Nazis and Zombies: The Desecration Collection! The collection contains three feature films, Teen Ape VS. The Monster Nazi Apocalypse (Starring Debbie Rochon, Return to Nuke ‘Em High, Tromeo & Juliet), Secret of the Magic Mushrooms, and Attack of the Tromamaggot. All three films were shot in or inspired by Das Land der Dichter und Denker (the land of poets and thinkers):
Teen Ape VS. The Monster Nazi Apocalypse (Starring Debbie Rochon)
Directed by Chris Seaver
From genre legend Chris Seaver, and starring Troma starlets Debbie Rochon (Return to Nuke ‘Em High Vol. I & II, Tromeo & Juliet) and Nicola Fiore (Mr. Bricks), this hilarious, gore-filled romp begins in 1945 where the Paranormal Investigation Agency has landed in Nazi Germany and defeated Adolf Hilter and the Third Reich. In present day, Hilter’s right-hand henchwoman clones Hitler using a vial of his DNA. Only Teen Ape and the PIA can stop the rise of the Fourth Reich!
“…an over-the-top culmination of all the insanity [Seaver] has culled over the years…” – Film Threat
The Secret of the Magic Mushrooms:
Directed by Master W and Crippler Criss
Two young friends go deep in the woods to camp and drink, but when one of the friends dies, only a handful of legendary magic mushrooms can bring him back to life.
“The lord of the rings of no-budget movies” – Silschede Today
Attack of the Tromaggot:
Directed by Leslie Teah
Much more than a German Troma fan film, this original and nauseating film is set in Maggotown, where the Mucus Corporation has left the sewers full of toxic waste, causing a tiny maggot to mutate into the horrifying, blood-thirsty TROMAGGOT!
“…colourful and disgusting imagery…” – Undead Brainspasm
Troma Entertainment is pleased to announce the winners of the Troma/Lomography Troma-ography photo contest. Analog photographers from countries all over the world submitted over 800 photo entries to the contest in honor of the recent 14th Annual TromaDance Film Festival, full of mutants, blood and toxic waste! “We at Troma Entertainment pride ourselves on our ability to look at what the mainstream is doing and then doing the exact opposite,” says Troma president and creator of the Toxic Avenger Lloyd Kaufman.

Lead by Troma Entertainment’s Lloyd Kaufman, the Occupy Cannes movement will use the Cannes Film Festival to draw attention to the disparity in opportunity between the mega-media conglomerates and independent artists. “Give art back to the people,” exhorts Kaufman. In its acclaimed 2002 documentary “All the Love You Cannes,” Troma discussed and established that the mega media-conglomerates have smothered most of the art world and are not going away. With the Occupy Cannes demonstrations at Cannes and the forthcoming documentary of the same name, Troma is aiming to level the playing field and to inform independent artists as to how they can better co-exist with, work around, and change the mainstream to promote truly independent art in all its forms.
Occupy Cannes will be a provocative, idealistic, and very entertaining documentary to be filmed at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival about the struggle of independent artists who come from around the world to promote their projects. Exploring the Cannes Film Festival from inside out, Occupy Cannes will use Troma’s latest production, Return to Nuke ‘Em High Vol. One, as its centerpiece as cameras follow the Troma Team at Cannes while they try to sell and promote the film. They will also meet many filmmakers who have come to support Troma and also use what they learn to promote their own projects. Occupy Cannes aims to serve as a wake-up call to media elites who have hijacked Cannes and show that indie artists and major studios can co-exist and work together if they open their minds. Occupy Cannes hopes to “make a difference,” says Kaufman. Follow the Occupy Cannes movement on Tumblr.

3 NEW VERSIONS OF TROMA’S “FATHER’S DAY” NOW AVAILABLE: “THIS MOVIE WILL BLOW YOUR BALLS OFF!”
– Mark Neveldine (Director, Crank series)
Having sold out of the 4-disc BluRay/DVD release of the Troma Team production of Astron-6’s FATHER’S DAY, Troma Entertainment has given genre fans three new helpings of the hit film with a single disc DVD, 2-disc DVD/BluRay combo pack, and a single-disc BluRay, now available! Get them before the Fuchman gets you! ALL THREE NEW RELEASES ARE AVAILABLE NOW AT THE TROMA SHOP!
The gritty, gruesome, VHS throwback FATHER’S DAY follows that classic story we all grew up with: boy watches father raped and murdered, boy grows into a vengeful one-eyed man, man teams up with a priest and a male prostitute to take down his father’s killer. Variety calls FATHER’S DAY “a gleefully tasteless quasi-grindhouse nasty that’s funnier than most of the many such parodic cheesefests that have been created since, well, Grindhouse!” Mark Neveldine (Director, Crank series) adds, “This movie will blow your balls off!”
