Attack of the Killer Donuts
F**N
Nice B movie satire except...
Whoever the sound editor was on this thing needs to be "educated" in how to manage consistent sound levels. One second you are blown out of your seat. The next, you can't hear anything they're saying. Some sounds are ridiculously high, others are too soft to hear no matter how much you strain.I literally adjusted the sound 50 or 60 times before I said "enough" and stopped.I doubt it had anything to do with the Internet connection (the logs say the speed of the stream was consistent), so it has to be the video itself. It could have been entertaining, but it just was too much trouble to mess around with.Note to producers: Make sure your sound editor isn't some dumb kid who runs around in a car with the music going at 3000%. Their inconsistent hearing levels are going to mess up your film for everyone. I'd rather listen to fingernails on chalkboards.One star for horrible, and unwatchable, sound editing.

Fun horror-comedy filled with giggly homages
This movie is like eating those dried worms you find at candy stores these days: you feel like you have to try it, it's not so expensive that it'll break the bank, it's not the best thing ever, but it makes for a good topic the next time you find yourself in a conversation lacking something to contribute.Overall, the movie had the feel of a production that might result from a team of porn-industry professionals who wanted to try their hand at a PG-13 movie. The movie opens with an homage to The Reanimator and then manages to bring in elements of so many other classic B horror movies: Night of the Creeps, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, and even Rubber (not a horror movie). I found that I spent most of my time trying to figure out which classic movie was being referenced and overlooking what could be considered a waste of time. Goodness knows, we waste our time on far less enjoyable things most days!And besides, I was interested in seeing what C. Thomas Howell was up to professionally these days.

Boring.
I was feeling nostalgic about Attack of the Killer Tomatoes when I ordered this. My gut was screaming "DON'T DO IT!" but I didn't listen. I wish I had. The acting isn't the worst I've seen but there were no memorable performances either. There were a couple of veteran actors I recognized but they had nothing to work with. Kind of like hooking up a Kentucky Derby winner to a broken oxcart. Throwing in a porn star was pointless. Sorry, juvenile delinquents, no nudity or sex. Well, there was a sex scene (not with the porn star). Both had their pants on. Hmm, maybe they were having sex. How do blue jeans and zippers feel on the genitals? That would explain the awful screaming. This travesty should be a "1" but there were a few...and I mean A FEW... scenes that were amusing. Not break-out-laughing mind you, but worth a chuckle or two. Overall, boring.

Sometimes...
Just because this is an intentional B movie doesn't mean it gets a pass on production or development. Sometimes a thing can be overly cliche and it comes off trying too hard. This had hope on the drone opening shot and then it shrunk right down to home video. Staging matters. The timing of introducing characters matters. This had potential but they dropped in too many unimportant story lines and let them flop around as fillers with no real point to them. There was a disconnect with all of them. What broke this project was that the main character male lead had no redeeming qualities. There was no real reason to root for him. And nothing about him that would make us believe that the strong female lead (she stole this movie) would be interested in him in the first place. She was so much more than he was, both in the writing and in her performance.

They Tried Really Hard
Hey, this movie is not good. It is funny in its ungoodness. To explain why it is not so good, I'd have to write a pamphlet about what constitutes a bad film. The food news is that it has a beginning and and end. The beginning was mediocre while the end was unrewarding. The special effects were there. The two dimensional characters were portrayed in a way that made them seem one dimensional. It is a farce, so credible characters are not necessary; however, it was a real effort to empathize with any of these. I'm a bit amazed that anyone funded this project, but more power to them for finding a way to get this one in the can. It is a great example of how bad a film can be. I would watch it for that reason alone.

So Bad It Is Good
This gem was played at our "Unspeakably Bad Movie Night". The object is to find a movie that is so bad and campy that it is funny. This movie did not disappoint. Hysterical in an "Attack of the Killer Tomato's" way. Bad acting (is something you should assume from the title as the co-stars are carnivorous donuts"), silly story (yet untold), funny images. So bad it was good.

An excellent fun movie
Hilarious! An excellent fun movie. Even my picky hubby liked it! Discreetly gory (people killed but you don't see a lot of blood and guts. The donuts are smart and cunning. Great movie for B horror fans with a sense of humor.

Great for a laugh!
The sound the donuts make when they hop along on their killing spree is the stuff the uncontrollable giggles come from. One of my favorite B movies!

This film is a masterpiece, and anybody who disagrees deserves to be attacked by mutated donuts.

witziger und völlig absurder Trashfilm alla Killertomaten hahaha xD
Also erstmal kann ich mich meinen Vorrednern nicht anschließen denn bei mir funktioniert die bluray einwandfrei. Wohlmöglich ist hier bei den anderen am Rechner oder Laptop geschaut wurden und der Kopierschutz ist zu stark das er deshalb rumspinnt denn eine bluray schaut man sich auf den tv an,find ich.Zum Film,naja man darf von einem Trashmovie nichts großes erwarten und muss also seine Erwartungen einfach auf 0 schrauben und dann kann man nur positiv überrascht werden. MIt viel Witz und keinerlei großer Schauspielkunst oder Handlung geht es bergauf in einer Orgie des Donutgemetzels ganz schön blutig und spritzig im Abgang bis zum bitteren Ende,durchzieht das mit einer Liebesgeschichte und hat hier einen wirklich unterhaltsamen coolen Film ganz im Stile der Firma "The Asylum" wo ich wirklich gedacht hatte das diese ihn produziert haben.Wirklich cooler Film,klare Empfehlung für Trashfans
