Attack of the Killer Donuts (2016)

Captivating movie !

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

This movie seems like a Roger Corman flick, just a lot better. There's basically no plot or budget or wide shots but somehow it's still not too bad. So it's about a 30 year old man who still lives at home with his 35 year old mom and elderly uncle. The uncle has invented a re-animation serum that can somehow re-animate things that were never animated, like donuts. We see three cars in this movie and through the use of the tight shot they almost make you believe that they are on roads but if you pay attention, it's clear they are not. At one point they even drive through an area where there appears to be snow on the ground. Maybe they're in a cold place? Well considering that we clearly see 2 of the 3 license plates and they are California and Florida, I doubt that. Not to be out done, the extremely fake cop car has a plate from a different state. The donut shop is obviously an empty store front they rented. They even make a fake soda label, while turning the Shasta bottles so you can't read the whole label. There's just so much stuff that doesn't make sense. After the stars get fired/quit the donut shop they have no problem getting in it in the middle of the night. The girl is wearing a sleeveless rock band t-shirt like she's a 40 year old metal fan in the 90s and for the majority of the movie you can see large portions of her bra. In the morning when she wakes up after sex not only is her bra on but it's a different bra. I could spend all day tearing apart this movie but I'm done. Still better than anything Cruise, Clooney or Pitt ever did.

Horror comedies have the unique ability to make viewers laugh at uncomfortable or gruesome scenes! Attack of The Killer Donuts utilized this production tool perfectly to describe is story of killer donuts, cheesy characters and undeniably funny one liners. Depicting a tale of science experiments gone wrong and killer donuts from the local bakery, this self-aware comedy is an absolute classic. I loved the film and will definitely watch again! Enjoy!

Next time you're at a donut shop you may side-eye your next snack. Scott Wheeler's sci-fi horror comedy, Attack of the Killer Donuts is both frightening and ridiculously funny. From the very beginning, Wheeler has managed to captivate his audience's attention with his graphically intense intro and upbeat original theme song. He does a fantastic job at holding your attention hostage in the film with his use of ridiculous satirical humor, absurdist physical comedy, bloody action packed scenes and of course a dash of young love. Wheeler has managed to concoct the perfect ingredients for the recipe to a unique body of work in need of it's own genre. You DOnut want to miss out on this fun film, guaranteed to make you laugh!

Buy a box of donuts and get ready to watch ya typical cheesy B side movie. I knew it was that type but we like it. My kids and I laughed the whole time. Movie was filled with funny parts and we like watching silly movies. We will be waiting for part 2. Attack of the killer donuts : the filling fights back.
