The Garbage Pail Kids Movie, released in the 1980s, is making a highly anticipated comeback as a 3-Disc Limited Collector's Edition DVD & Blu-ray Mediabook. This uncut and utterly disgusting film promises to be a treat for fans of bad taste.

Directed by Rod Amateau, the movie introduces a host of bizarre characters like Nat Nerd, Messy Tessie, and Greaser Greg. But the real star of the show is Dodger, an orphan who befriends the Garbage Pail Kids. These unconventional extraterrestrial characters crash-land their garbage can rocket in Captain Manzini's antique shop, and together, they navigate the challenges of growing up and confront older bullies.
