Toxic Moon
Slime is of the essence.
2026·1h 15m·★ 0.0
Set in a mid-90s Pine Barrens town in New Jersey, Toxic Moon follows zine writer Scuz Lanchester as she investigates a string of murderous hit-and-runs and a mysterious ooze infecting the woods, wreaking genetic havoc on every creature it touches. Lo-fi monstrosities, trash synths, bloody leather, killer cars, woundfog, slimerats and vampire bats: Toxic Moon is a rotten feast for the senses, entirely captured on VHS-C.
