Dr Mortimer Gangrene Presents...
The Tomato Menace continues to threaten in this movie. The mysterious, beautiful new girlfriend of the protagonist, Tara, loves to listen to the Farm Report in the morning. Her best friend is the sentient FT (Fuzzy Tomato), who she tries to protect from one Doctor Mortimer Gangrene and his sidekick/assistant, the blond surfer-type dude known as Igor (only without the hunch).If I remember, this is the first movie that introduced the creator of the Killer Tomatoes. Whenever someone calls him a mad scientist (unless I'm confusing it with the cartoon series) he always says "I'm not a MAD scientist, I'm an ANGRY scientist!"John Astin (Addams Family's "Gomez") really makes this movie and the other two sequels to the original cult classic special. IMHO, the sequels are better than the original, but I do own the complete set and am entitled to my opinion. ;-)
