Review of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! (1978) by Erwin M — 14 Oct 2011
Stupid and cheesey to the max, but still manages to deliver some genuinely funny bits and pieces. Ultimately tries a little too hard though, and more times than not the humour just falls flat. The whole things loses its charm by the half way point too, and stops being funny altogether.
Yeah not much else to say about this one. Couldn't have really been better. The premise is just too thin, and there isn't enough here to spread across the length of an entire movie. I found this a little offensive actually, as it really is just poking fun at low budget horror.
Some of us actually think that independent horror is a lot more pure and truthful form of expression than big budget bullshit. Ah well, take it for what it is. Intentional retardation, and post modernist sarcastic fluff.
