Lines: 9 I believe there were TWO versions of "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes." The original, made in B/W, was intended seriously. However, it was undeniably BAD, and for that reason it was funny. The version you saw would be the later version, a REMAKE of the classic made in the 70's. It featured many comedy stars and a humorous script that totally failed to add anything to the original. For myself, I prefer "Santa Claus conquers the Martians," but that's just a personal bias. I did like the theme from the later version, though.
