“Rather than sue our fans the way certain media conglomerates and music companies are doing, Troma has always believed that the artist and the fan should be partners.”
 – Lloyd Kaufman (President of Troma Entertainment & creator of the Toxic Avenger)
Greetings from Tromaville! Troma Entertainment is pleased to announce that nearly 250 films from the Troma catalog are now available to view for free at youtube.com/tromamovies. The independent studio has vowed to continue making titles from its extensive and eclectic library of over 800 films available. “We will have 500 movies uploaded by the time we celebrate our 40th year in the film industry,” Kaufman said.
