Attack of the Killer tomatoes is a comedic horror film that's so bad, it's good. With cheap special effects, wooden acting and a nonsensical plot, it's a film that's best enjoyed with a group of friends and a sense of irony. It's a perfect example of a movie that is entertaining because of its flaws, not in spite of them.

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes

The film’s special effects are cheap and often laughably bad, but it’s all part of the film’s charm. From the giant tomatoes that look like rubber props to the cheesy blood splatters, it’s clear that the filmmakers didn’t take themselves too seriously. The acting is also somewhat uneven, with some performances being wooden and over-the-top. But again, this is all part of the film’s charm.

One of the most striking elements of the film is its use of music and sound. The film’s score is both eerie and catchy, perfectly setting the tone for the film. The sound design is also noteworthy, with the squishy sound effects of the tomatoes being particularly effective. It’s hard not to laugh when you hear the sound of a tomato squishing against the pavement.

    This is a fun movie, but nowhere near as wonderfully hilarious as the sequel: ‘Return of the Killer Tomatoes’. That one is highly recommended. You’ll even get to witness a young George Clooney at work ACTING, as opposed to being a Woke propagandist/activist/hypocrite.
