#KillerTomatoes
blurb

While not a dark comedy or a spoof, the Ents from LotR have a something in common with #killertomatoes

Ents are a sentient being and they do eventually go on a rampage! (Well more like a march, but still!)

#monstermadness2017 I finished the first book in this duology last weekend. It's a dark comedy and kind of spoofy. It lacks a sentient being but it's still my pick. #killertomatoes

My #killertomatoes pick is The Stinky Cheese Man. It follows LibrarianRyan's description of a #killertomato...comedic, parodic, has a sentient being...

I checked this book out from the library the other day to read to my baby, but let's be honest, I really checked it out for myself...I think it's hilarious!

"Once its prey has been stung and killed, a triffid will root itself beside the body and feed on it as it decomposes" - pretty #killertomatoes-ish. The triffids in Wyndham's novel are sentient beings (I think, it is still tbr), and they definitely have a killer instinct. With a 10ft long stinger which can kill with skin contact, they are a pretty deadly ?

T4 Angel Tomatoes are literally #KillerTomatoes

The tomatoes were genetically modified, and accidentally resulted in the deaths of thousands of humans, and inadvertently forced the inderland community (supernaturals of the world) to come out of hiding (they were immune).

Now no self respecting human in the Hollows even looks at a tomato! Personally I don‘t know what they eat if they can‘t eat pizza and most pasta sauces! 🍅

Man, #killertomatoes is so hard! I was originally going to go for The Crimson King (Dark Tower), you know, he kills and he's working those red cloaks and eyes. But, instead going down the horror that doesn't take itself too seriously route, I nominate the ghosts that Grady Hendrix writes. I loved these two stories. Fun, original horror, darkly comedic. #monstermadness2017 @LibrarianRyan

Libby1 Morrison‘s ! I used to live in England and shopped there. Is it pathetic that I‘m feeling nostalgia about a supermarket? #IHaveIssues 7y
Oryx @Libby1 As supermarkets go, it's on the "more likely to feel nostalgia about it" list. ? Where are you living now? 7y
Libby1 @Oryx - I‘m in Northern Ireland now. I‘m from the US but have lived in NI or England since 2000. ❤️ 7y

A new father, a lethal baby, some 'cute' hellhounds make up this dark and spoofy comedy.

Last prompt for #monstermadness2017. I wanted to end with some campy fun. So let's talk about some #killertomatoes. Zombiekins is a dark comedy for kids about a well loved stuffed animals that becomes a zombie. Cute and adorable for grades 2 and up. Hope you enjoyed the challenge.

Bookzombie I enjoyed it and it was definitely challenging!🎃👻👽 7y
Jas16 Thank you so much for another fun challenge! 7y
DarcysMom Thank you for hosting such a fun challenge! 🎃💀👻👿 7y
Natasha.C.Barnes Seconded, this was awesome. This challenge in particular has made me really want to host my own someday...partially because I would have fun making prizes! 😆 7y

The vampires in this series are descendents from otherworldly creatures who came from space. They feed solely on humans for sustenance.

That makes them a good pick for #KillerKlowns right? Is this a stretch? I'm going with it, vampires descended from alien vampires.

#monstermadness2017 @LibrarianRyan

MinDea What do you think "alien vampires" look like? I picture little green guys with very long incisors. ?? This makes me laugh harder than it should...might be a little sleep deprived! 7y
LibrarianRyan 👍🏻🤓👻. Works for me. 7y
WarpedSweetness @MinDea I'm picturing that little martian guy from the Bugs Bunny cartoons (or was it Daffy Duck) with long incisors and feeding from humans now. Lmao @LibrarianRyan Woot! This was all I could think of for this prompt. 7y
LibrarianRyan @WarpedSweetness my feeling is if you can explain it it works. 😁😁😁. I know I've posted a few weird ones. Still working on #killertomatoes 7y
WarpedSweetness @LibrarianRyan I'm in luck then, as I've been able to explain them all so far! Actually...I already have an idea for #killertomatoes . When I saw that one there was only one thing that came to mind. 7y
