Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

silversidhe I was exposed to this film last night. I feel both like my life is more complete AND like I'll never get back that weird little bit in my soul ever again. I'm not sure I've experienced that phenomena before. This film is gloriously terrible. I'm glad I watched it, despite possibly being scarred for life. "What doesn't kill you makes you stranger". I think they did a fantastic job of doing a terrible job, and the performances were pretty disturbingly well done for the most part, especially the main...guy. I think my favorite part might be the "continuity" bit, which is funny because it was one of the least over-the-top funny moments...for this movie. I was also really disturbed by the number of physically attractive actors in this film considering the bizarre, messed and/or stupid characters they played. It made me uncomfortable in a good/bad/confusing way, which I felt ultimately added to the specatacle.

lastliberal Debbie Rochon as a blond? Wow, this is something different! Of course, this whole movie is something different. Lloyd Kaufman has really pulled out all the stops to give us the grossest film I could ever imagine. No, I would be Lloyd Kaufman if I imagined this stuff - this is waaaay beyond my imagination.Extreme amounts of blood and gore and body fluids and solids. This was the ultimate in gross, but you had to look.Once again, there was a perfect part for me. I coulda been a contenda in indy film.Not for those with a weak stomach.

movieman_kev Larry Benjamin (a thinly veiled Lloyd Kaufman, playing more or less himself) is in the midst of shooting a movie, while all around him ghastly murders are being committed to people associated with the film. All of the "plot" is just a flimsy device to have more blood, guts, bad-taste, vulgarity, and general depravity then even other Troma films never had as much of before, or since thus far. But more doesn't equal better at all, quite the opposite, because while I love other Troma films such as the "Toxic Avenger" films (well accept for the abysmal third one), the first "Class of Nuke 'em high", "Tromeo and Juliet" and others/ This film (the unrated version at least) is so extreme, so artless, so offensive that it gave even me pause to wonder what the hell the point of it all was. Note to Lloyd: I NEVER thought I'd say this in my life. But tone it down a notch or two, bro.My Grade:D DVD Extras: Disc 1) intro by Llyod; Lloyd's Commentary; Editor's commentary; actor's commentary; 19 deleted scenes; 21 alternate takes; comic to film escalator scene comparison; audition footage; blooper reel; Teaser and theatrical trailers Disc 2) the 99 minute "Farts of Dakness: the Making of Terror Firmer" documentary; 3 music videos (Say what you mean by Lunachicks, Freak of the Week by DJ Polo *with nudity AND Ron Jeremy*, and Seeing Red by Entombed); soundtrack spot; promos for All you need to know about Filmaking, and Tromadance film festival; Gyno-talk with Alyce Latorelle wherein she talks of how disgusted she was; a mini interview with Lloyd Kaufman's daughter, Charlotte; the Radiation March (the horrid PSA that's on every Troma disk it seems), and Trailers for "Citizen Toxie", "Unspeakable", "Cannibal the Musical", & "Parts of the Family" DVD-Rom content: Terror Firmer the game (I can't get past the "Toddster level, the nails go by to fast) Easter Eggs: On disc 1, let the credits under the filmmakers menu play through for a re-creation of a phone call; highlight the face in the main menu 3 times for a 6 minute censored version of the film. Highlight the Terror Firmer logo in the extras menu for 10 seconds of color bars followed by 10 seconds of a gross appendage; (their's another egg, but the link it gives you doesn't work anymore) Now onto the second disk,highlight the face for footage of "the Naked Cowboy" (who I've seen at Mardi Gras in New Orleans multiple times)

chuckc On one hand, the folks of Troma are true independent filmmakers, striking a blow for the First Amendment with every movie they make. On the other hand, they make movies with jiggling breasts, tons of sex, severed body parts, and crushed melons for brains. Troma fills the void left behind by John Waters when he went semi-respectable."Terror Firmer" is the low-budget maverick's grandest statement for freedom of expression--its biggest blow against the empire. The flick is "Babes on Broadway" crossed with "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls," with a touch of "Pink Flamingos" for good measure. The plot, such as it is, involves Troma trying to finish the latest entry in its "Toxic Avenger" series while dealing with the ultimate critic--a serial killer bent on shutting the production down.I'll say one thing for "Terror Firmer"--it's funnier than Waters's "Cecil B. Demented" and much more repulsive. I can't recommend the movie entirely (although I never found it boring), but Lloyd Kaufman's (the director's) book "All I Need to Know About Film-making I Learned from the Toxic Avenger" is a hoot and worth reading.I admire Troma's spirit, if not necessarily their movies. We need these guys now more than ever.
