If it sounds like the kind of movie you want, and you like dumb B movies, then this one is fun.
Its not amazing, you won't be rolling on the floor, and you won't remember much of it. Everyone in my group enjoyed it enough, and there's plenty of stuff to point out.
I remember it had some killer tunes at the opening and in a couple spots. The main actress was pretty good, and surprisingly the donuts were done well. They had decent animations, and silly sound effects that felt reminiscent of "Ray and the Raving Rabids".
The attacking scenes themselves I think were pretty dumb, but you can't really expect much for those!

This movie is stupid, but if you are even here, you pretty much know that. Its about donuts that gain sentience and kill people. Again, no surprise that this isn't Ben Hur. The acting is passable, the female lead Kayla Compton as a standout and is a better actress then this movie would suggest. I assume in 2022 after becoming a more mainstream actress and getting better roles, she will be teased for being in a movie with such a ridiculous premise.
Again, basing this review on you are already aware that this movie is about killer donuts, Im reviewing it as such. The cgi donuts murdering people don't look so bad, and are as believable as your desserts coming alive to kill you can be. Some comedy horror movies are actually devoid of comedy or jokes land flat. There's some solid laughs here too, if you aren't going to be too judgmental of something with rainbow sprinkles on it trying to kill you. I've seen a lot of b movies and turn 60% of them off halfway through. I got through this with some friends and had a good time.

This movie was intentionally written and directed to be campy, corny, and fun. It worked! We laughed our butts off during this flick. It's something that a moviehouse like Alamo would play for a goof-night. Just enjoy it for what it is and log it beside your "Attack of the Killer Clowns from Outer Space" experience.
If you enjoyed 'Return of the Killer Tomatoes', then this movie is right up your alley.
It's a fairly standard B-movie guys. Low budget. Bad acting. Asinine plot. Laughable production values.
All that being said, I found this gem of a flick entertaining for it's 98 minute run time. It had plenty of laughs and the CGI of the jumping and murderous donuts is hilarious to say the least. And people off-screen throwing the donuts to show them in pursuit? Brilliantly moronic.
I've seen B-movies that I had to stop after the first 20 minutes or so, they were too awful to watch even for the sake of trying to ironically enjoy a cheap movie. Not the case here. Sure it will never win any awards and is never destined to become a cult classic, but for this flick to remain fairly unknown is a pity. I, for one, was entertained.

Attack of the Killer Donuts wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting. High production values throughout. Some brilliantly understated performances by the cast. Stunning special effects. It'll be a long, LONG time before I trust another donut, let me tell you! In the end, though, I found the premise to be somewhat unrealistic, and after twenty minutes or so my eyes began to glaze over.
