Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Return of the Killer Tomatoes!
The world has changed since the first Killer Tomato movie. Tomatoes are now banned from restaurants and grocery stores. Some young people of questionable morals (not old enough to remember the horrors of the first Tomato War) secretly buy tomatoes through illegal backdoor markets. Two good-natured young friends, Chad (Anthony Starke) and Matt (a long-haired George Clooney), work in a tomato-free pizzeria (if you're wondering, marinara sauce has been substituted with peanut butter!)

Meanwhile, megalomaniac professor Gangreen (John Astin) is planning another tomato invasion. He perfected a new technology that lets him turn ordinary tomatoes into extraordinary human beings. He already created dozens of Rambo look-alikes but his favorite tomato-to-human experiment is Tara, his gorgeous personal sex-slave/cook/maid. When professor Gangreen mistreats one of his creations – a cute and cuddly furry tomato – Tara decides to run away, taking her ‘brother' with her. She calls the tomato pet FT (for Fuzzy Tomato).

Tara goes to the only human being she knows – Chad. He's met Chad when he was delivering a peanut-butter-gummy-bear pizza to Professor Gangreen. At first, Tara becomes Chad's kinky and exotic girlfriend hiding from Chad her tomato heritage as well as FT. But unsurprisingly Tara's secret comes out. Will Chad and Matt be able to confront their own tomato-phobia and accept Tara for who she is? If so, will they be able to save her from the madness of Gangreen's chemical lab?
