Nice repackaging of the previous release. It looks like a campy B-movie now. Great to see the actors on the cover. The movie is the same.

The Return of the Killer Tomatoes

Whoa boy. How do you start describing a film whose sole premise is the avoidance of a great tomato attack?|

I think I just did.

Okay, let's look at the positives of this film. George Clooney as Matt is a loveable, oversexed pizza employee who runs a 'date Rob Lowe' contest to meet available women. John Astin portrays a slightly mad, over the top mad vegetable scientist who transforms a nightshade product into human beings with music. Rock n roll, salsa, bethoven, and even country music has the power to create life! The hero, Chad (Anthony Starke), falls in love with a wayward tomato (get the pun?) and through her several hundred sexual positions discovers a shocking secret! Some other positives include Igor, a TV station wannabe who is the evil henchman with a video fetish. Secret laboratory? The Dollar Movie?

If that's not enough. Paid advertising is the buzz phrase behind this turkey. Coca cola, pepsi, Honda, Dove, and many other products are randomly placed either for laughs or for money. Either way, the humorous intent behind the product placements is perfect. Both Matt and Chad are great pitch men.

Don't know how else to tell you that this is both a bad and a good film. It succeeds by being what films should not be. The producers mock themselves repeatedly, and the low budget look actually works! No CGI here, VGI (vegetable generated images) though. Gotta like the FVI (Federal Vegetable Investigations) and their rather unique members. Scuba man, parachute man, and the Lone Ranger?

Thanks Anchor Bay for the Cult Classic Film Series. You gave me nightmares.
