Mine is "Nymphoid Barbarian in Dinosaur Hell," "Mommy," "Toxic Avenger 1 and 2," "They Call Me Macho Woman," and "Class Of Nuke em High."

Probably, Terror Firmer or Class of Nukem High 2, got to confess USA Up All Night is the main reason.  I saw them a few times there as well Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-a-rama.  Nymphoid is good but thought it was better when I was younger. 
Ah, the good old days.

I usually enjoy Troma pick ups more (do they still purchase out of house productions for distribution?). The House on Tombstone Hill aka Dead Dudes in the House aka The Dead Come Home is one of my favorites.
On a sidenote, I've been wondering about Troma in 2013 lately. I think their "golden years" ended in the mid-90s. With The Asylum and SyFy releasing trash for the needy, is Troma still relevant? Is Toxie still iconic? Do people still drool over Tromettes besides Lloyd Kaufman? Tromaville was certainly fun in its time, but seems kinda lost in the HD and 7.1 dts age.

Troma still picks films up.

As for films I like, my list is a mix of films they made and films they picked up: Toxic Avenger 1&4, Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD, Terror Firmer, Cannibal the Musical, Redneck Zombies.

One could say Troma is borderline done, but some big LA studios are remaking classic Troma films so they should get cash soon.

Mother's Day, the Hanging Woman, and The Children.  :thumbup: (note: these aren't exactly TROMA-Troma films like Toxic Avenger, but Troma released them on DVD so I'm assuming they count, right?)

Class of Nuke'Em High is a sentimental favorite because I watched'em shoot part of that in the parking lot of a high school in my home town (Paramus, NJ) back in the day. For all I know I could be in the movie milling around in the crowd in the background, but I've never been able to pick myself out. I wonder if there's a widescreen DVD?

Cannibal the Musical is a favorite of mine.  I'm also really fond of Bloodsucking Freaks, even though that's not their normal type of movie.

I have never seen a Troma movie. I would like to, but I have never.

Not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing.

It's kinda like eating enough cheese curls until you pass out: Everyone should experience such things at least ONCE in a lifetime.

Just make sure to go with a certified Troma flick. Probably TOXIC AVENGER would be best. If you enjoy that, there's a whole world of bloody cartoonish mayhem awaiting you.
