Did you know?!Facts and trivia about The Toxic Avenger Part II (1989)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- According to Ron Fazio, John Altamura was fired as the Toxic Avenger after he complained about the make-up and threatened staff; Fazio replaced him in Tokyo, but Lloyd Kaufman kept Altamura's scenes so both actors fight each other in the opening sequence.
- Lloyd Kaufman was told Rikiya Yasuoka and Mayako Katsuragi spoke English, but their English was too poor, so he had his wife Patricia, then New York City Film Commissioner, dub Katsuragi, while Michael Herz dubbed Yasuoka.
- Michael Jai White made his film debut in the film, playing an Apocalypse Inc. member while also assisting with the film's fight sequences in New York; Hitoshi Genma coordinated the action scenes in Japan.
