10 Biggest Guilty Pleasure Superhero Movies

4. The Toxic Avenger Franchise

The entirety of Troma Entertainment's oeuvre amounts to one big guilty pleasure. Some of the most famous B movies ever made are guaranteed to come with sex, gore and graphic mutations that utilise lovely eighties practical effects.

The Toxic Avenger series stands out as their best known work with Toxie serving as the company's poster boy. It's the classic story of a nerd turned mutated superhero (except this one looks like he's actually been exposed to radioactive waste) and how he takes down his enemies in ways that would make the Punisher blush.

The sheer amount of creativity and imagination on display alone is something to be admired, and even features sights like two foetuses battling it out in the womb.

It's like watching a guerrilla filmmaker's How-To guide, producing unique and outrageous material on a shoe string budget.
