Let the rivers run red

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes is one of those obscure movies people remember fondly, looking back through tomato juice tinted glasses, yet only if they have very hazy memories of the 1978 ultra-cheap parody of classic horror B-movies. It does feature a few notable moments and I plan to put together a 50 second 'best of' video one day to showcase those assuming it hasn't already been done by some other saddo. ;)

Global Software's licensed 8-bit game has little in common with the movie aside from borrowing the eponymous vegetable meanies. It's an isometric action game in which you play as a PuraTom processing plant worker who finds himself under threat from mutating tommies. His means of defence is to either dump the gurning critters into holes in the floor or use various scavenged weapons to dispatch them. It's a race against the clock, which can be extended by collecting punch cards.
