    Funny in that Killer Tomato Sort of Way

    To all of you whom are calling this a horrible movie, get a clue. It wasn't made to compete in the Oscar run. It is pure schlock and silly, corny fun. A good laugh and just funny in a ridiculous way. Take it for what it's worth and don't over think it. Lots of fun. This is such a great franchise. I have seen interviews with many of the regular cast members and they don't take it seriously at all. Just good clean fun and silliness. I guess it doesn't take much to turn me on but I find them hysterical. L A U G H!!! If you can't laugh at them you need to relax and not take it so seriously. I love the stereotypes and the allusions to other age old stories. It must have been a lot of fun to work on.

    Bizarre, silly, illogical yet nice and playful movie

    I have expected a lot worse because of very low ranking on IMDb. Yes, this movie is definitely not a gem, but it is funny in a playful way. The jokes are mostly mild, I was not laughing aloud but I have definitely smiled for the most of the movie. At least this comedy is not filled with obscene jokes, farting and vomiting as is typical for low ranking comedies these days. So you can watch this movie with your kids as well.

    The best part is probably "the war with the tomatoes" sequence. But other scenes are actually very good as well (the stories of the tourists suffering the endless tour in the castle). There is a ton of different books and movies being parodied in the movie, yet it is surprisingly not offensive towards the French too much. There is some baguette-waving and such jokes but fun is made at the expense of American school system as well. The "US school map" of Europe is really hilarious, I would like to buy one!

    Not really great but definitely not waste of time either. Just a bit of moderate silly fun.

    Part 4 of the Tomato Trilogy, fantastic.

    The Killer Tomato movies are all great, but this one was the best. The Tomato puppets were fantastic, especially Fangmato. John Astin was once again great as Dr. Gangreen. I hope they make a 5th movie soon, I cant wait to see the Killer Tomatoes again. Also they really should release this movie on DVD along with the cartoon series from the early 90's. I think that too many people look down on these movies without even giving them a chance, or they watch them with the mindset of not liking them to begin with. If you like the first one, the second one, or the third one, then you will like this one. The one thing I think they should have done with this film is make a theme song for it, instead there is just an instrumental. The theme song is hilarious in the first movie, and then even better in Return of the Killer Tomatoes, so why stop making new songs!! Anyway, bottom line, if you are a fan of the other films, or a fan of comedies in general, you should watch this movie.

    Skippy Vs. The Tomatoes Of Certain Death...

    Professor Gangreen (the immortal John Astin) has escaped from prison after stealing a prophetic book from the prison library. Now, with the help of his henchman Igor (Steve Lundquist), Gangreen seeks to use the prophesies to fulfill his nefarious dream of world conquest.

    This time, Gangreen develops some even stranger tomato mutants, including a two-ton whopper with a mouth big enough to swallow a Volkswagen!

    Enter Michael J. Fox (Marc "Skippy" Price), a hapless tourist thrust into the middle of this scenario of ultimate doom.

    Assisted by the lovely Marie (Angela Visser), Michael must ascend the dreaded "Tower of 900 Steps" to face off against the putrid professor in his castle lair. That is, if the daily castle tour groups don't get in the way!

    KILLER TOMATOES EAT FRANCE! Is every bit as fun as the rest of the films in this silly series. Yes, FT (Fuzzy Tomato) does indeed return...

    We're really scraping the bottom here...

    I'm one of those people who enjoy bad movies. I rent them on a weekend and give in to the insanity of terrible cinema. At this point, I have respect for every single bad movie I have seen in the past because I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE! EVERY MOVIE I SEE KEEPS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE! I've have done reviews of films like A Crack in the Floor and Campfire Stories but I am 100% confident that they will seem like Tolstoy compared to this.

    The plot is jaw dropping. A young man and his girlfriend try to unravel a mystery and a daring rescue of TJ, (or something like that, who cares) a rock star tomato who is kidnapped by an evil professor and his vegetable minions who desire the rise of the new king of France and complete world domination. The plot is clearly crafted by Shakespeare himself!

    While some might argue that this film is trying to be intensionally funny, the film makers obviously diddn't care if the film was of any kind of real quality. And by extension, neither was the director when the camera man CLEARLY TRIPS OVER THE STAIRS WHILE FILMING. The plot is clearly a kind of parody from the previous tomato films but the level of absurdity still forced me to take 5 minute breaks every 15 minutes.

    I've sacrificed 2 hours of my life that I will never ever get back. I have never seen tomatoes this ugly, a plot this terrible, or jokes this awful. God speed.

    Grade: 1/10

      Michael: What am I worried about? I'm 22 years old, I'm backpacking through France... Life is wonderful. Oh, who am I kidding. Michael J. Fox is a major motion picture star and I'm making a Killer Tomatoes movie, part 4!. What am I worried about? I'm making a movie. I'm filming in France. I've got a piece of the merchandising! It beats dinner theater.

    • Crazy credits
      DISCLAIMER The Producers wish to point out that there is no King of France and there has not been since the French Revolution of 1789. Guatemala is in Central America. Australia is a continent in the Southern Hemisphere. The Louvre has banned all rock concerts, and limits cultural activities to exhibitions of paintings and sculptures and stuff. The American Association of History Teachers recommends these books to children who wish to learn more about France: "The Tomatoes of August", "A Tale of Two Vegetables", "Kings and Other Dead Guys Who Wore Sissy Clothes"
