A campy self-aware satire of the B-Movie horror genre. A must watch for fans of deliberately terrible movies!

So dumb so silly but never wears out it's welcome. Fun just for its absolute ridiculousness.

So many times my friends concocted reasons for showing this wonderful b-film. Did you catch George Clooney?

I knew tomatoes were evil. Great movie, obviously don't take it too serious, just stay for a laugh. It's silly and dumb, but great fun!

Kitsch and cliche in all the ways you would expect from B-movie throwbacks.

Very camp, but as a whole this movie is bad.

Sure the animated show was terrible, but the tomatoes had character, unlike this atrocious movie. Not even campy enough to watch for fun.
