Toxic Xian avenger!
26 August 2023
A young xian poindexter gets harassed on his way from church by bully rockers, taking his bible and urinating on it. From that day on, he becomes a priest preaching against the evils of Heavy Metal.

But when he's given a leave from his clerical duties for his extreme methods, his resolve is strengthened to challenge the decision, making his way back to the church from his apartment with walls psychotically covered in crucifixes, to arraign himself with a monks robe that once belonged to another zealot from South America.

In a crazed state, makes his first kill the resident janitor, then barrels off into the night. Only to wreck where some barrels containing toxic sewage were dumped, thus absorbing the soup, becoming a mutant xoid avenger! Compare to The Toxic Avenger. Eventually making his way to a concert. Wherein he begins dispatching audience members with his wooden sword cross.

Secondary narrative involves a metal musician besieged with bad luck, gets accepted back into the band and makes a new girlfriend. Performing that night of the massacre, burning a bible as a high point in the performance to a cheering audience. Good special effects and props as well.

Overall, makes for an albeit hypocritical, impressive villain, ironically more Metal than would be admitted!

Notable scenes include: bisection, embryonic evisceration, ocular penetration, cross impalement, repeated vehicular roadkill. Necromantic resurrection.
