We are a little late with the release of august because of the Fantasia Festival but here we go. There are still a lot of great releases coming this month. The kings of august will no doubt be Chucky and the Toxic Avenger. After releasing of the Child’s Play trilogy will soon launch all other franchise titles so you can complete your collection. And Troma will offer a 4K boxset that all collectors will want to acquire: The Toxic Avenger Collection with all movies restored. It’s a great time to be a movie collector!
