This Thursday, March 28th from 6 to 8 PM, Troma fans are encouraged to come down to Forbidden Planet to celebrate the release of Troma’s latest home release, ‘Victor Goodview‘ with creators Vincent Turturro and Jerome Rain in attendance, as well as stars Kenny Borland, Tammi Cubilette and Kathleen Morgo!

In the Yonkers ghetto – on the outskirts of New York City – aimless-white boy-millennial Victor finds himself without a job and short on the utility bill. To make matters more… uncomfortable, he hasn’t had a bowel movement in longer than he can remember.Victor seeks solace by making friends of dubious character, smoking crack of dubious quality, and pursuing women of dubious intent. As Victor readies himself for his desperately needed dead-end job interview, the consequences of his lifestyle catch up with him…

“What is a low point in life for Victor ends up being a high point for audiences.” – Dakota Dahl, Rue Morgue

“Unflinching, disturbing, and refreshingly un-Hollywood. It makes The Florida Project look like a Disney movie.” – Avi Offer, NYC Movie Guru

Grindhouse theaters became defunct in the 80’s. Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino revived your love for them in 2007. Now visionary Tony Newton brings viewers something even better…

Tired of mainstream movies that play it safe? Tony Newton has you covered. ‘Grindsploitation 666’ is the latest addition to the Grindsploitation saga, and centers around topics that involve witchcraft, demons, devils and Satanic rituals, all portrayed in over the top, hilarious and mind-numbingly shocking ways!

A collection of 22 short films, ‘Grindsploitation 666’ is the brainchild of UK director Tony Newton, who reached out to filmmakers from all over the world for short films and faux trailers that capture the heart, spirit and love for the Grindhouse era!

Cheerio, Tromeo! Lloyd Kaufman is heading to the United Kingdom for a special Troma Tour! On Wednesday, March 13th at 7:00 PM, his first stop on the tour will be the Deptford Cinema in London for a screening of his 1996 Shakespeare-based opus, ‘Tromeo & Juliet,’ a film the New York Times praises as “goofily exhilarating” and “a deliriously grossed-out parody of Shakespeare.’ There will also be a special Q&A with Kaufman after the film!

 This extremely unconventional love story, co-written by James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy, Super, Slither), is screening for one night only! With new, exclusive merchandise being sold, as well as free autographs and photos with Lloyd Kaufman offered to attendees, fans are best advised to flock to the theater for this special event! They can also buy their tickets here!

Scotland’s got some of the best foods: haggis, bangers and mash, and… human flesh?!

When a man travels to Scotland to claim an inheritance left by his deceased uncle, he finds the mad scientist that’s made a home for himself in the basement has been doing some strange experiments with an even stranger assistant… and now these experiments are craving human meat.
Released in 1973, this film was also known as “Orgy of the Dead,” with plot points and moments reminiscent of Re-Animator and Frankenstein that would have any horror fan screaming in terror! Any squeamish attendees will have to repeat It can’t be true… it can’t be true to keep themselves from fainting!
