The article also reveals a interrogative sentence I had since watching the cinema , which is : is that actually Dinklage under all the prosthetics ? The answer is no . Actor Luisa Guerreiro is Toxie once he beat , well , toxic .

Before that though , the celluloid follow a janitor named Winston ( Dinklage ) . He struggle to keep thing afloat after his married woman dies , leaving him with a stepson ( Jacob Tremblay ) . Winston is diagnosed with a last illness but denied reporting by his companionship , led by Kevin Bacon . He attempts to get retaliation , gets vote down , dumped in toxic waste , and you may basically guess the relaxation .

As we said in our review of the film , The Toxic Avengeris very cognisant of what it is and is seek to be . It ’s gross and stupid but also queer and heartfelt . Even when Toxie is slop people with his swob , you may still feel that he ’s doing it for a reason — his stepson . Which is squeamish .
