Zoe B How does one begin to describe Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes? It is the cranberry mike's harder mixed with cucumber lime gatorade of cinema, for those familiar with the analogy. It is An Experience. Hard to place if it is a good or bad one. Frankly, it does not reach so bad it's good status- it reaches a tier of its own. So bad, it's actually fascinating how horrendous it is. There is camp, and there is whatever Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes is. It is under no misguided assumptions that it is not fundamentally deeply stupid. It's a bad attempt at parody of terrible movies that will leave you asking both "what the ****" and "why am I still watching this" with no attempt to reach for the remote. It's pure unadulterated garbage. Would watch again. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/20/25 Full Review Nick O Casablanca…Citizen Kane…The Godfather…Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/04/25 Full Review David J Considering how cheaply it was made i actually enjoyed this Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/27/25 Full Review Audience Member 5/5 stars definitely reccomend, I really appreciated the reversal of gender norms at the end, where the tall woman carried around the short man like her little pookie. It really spoke to me as a delusional single woman 🩷 Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/25 Full Review The S Not a movie that will ever teach you something about yourself, or your fellow man...not even the best satire film out there. Having just seen this film for the first time today, I can say that I feel as though this is a film you need to go into with zero expectations...it's not meant to be a Mel Brooks-level send up of the mid-20th century era "Attack of the Giant/Killer/Alien ???" films, it's meant to be a clear-eyed (i.e., "we know it's bad but we don't care") reproduction of those films. You need to sit down, acknowledge that the premise is ridiculous, and just GO with it. As a huge fan of the MST3k series, I have seen my share of "bad" monster movies, and this one is just...different. It's not "good", it's not even "so bad it's good"...it's just a movie that is intentionally, truly, and unabashedly low-budget, and therefore "bad" by most modern measures. It was also the first movie in a while that has made me laugh out loud at the straight-faced ridiculousness of it, starting before the opening credits had even ended, (in its own meandering, half-hearted way) all the way through to the final scene. Is the first 30 minutes the funniest it will be? I think so. Is the rest of it still worth watching? Absolutely. It seems a little disingenuous (to me at least) to read reviews of this film where people picked up the movie for the first time when the 25th anniversary edition came out on DVD or (even worse) when the film came out on Blu-Ray 40 years after it was made, and have the nerve to claim the movie is some weird, terrible, unfunny, failed anomaly of a film while ignoring the fact that it spawned three sequels, a kids' cartoon series, three video games, and continues to exist in the collective consciousness today in SOME form. TLDR: Like the original Transformers film by Michael Bay, this is not a film that qualifies as "art"...it's entertainment, pure and simple. Pop some popcorn, leave your expectations at the door, and watch a bad movie about tomatoes eating people. What, like you've got something better to do for 87 minutes?
