Rodentz also goes with the "threaten to make a sequel involving an even stupider animal" shocking twist ending, which is even more of an empty threat here.

For one thing, both movies rely heavily on footage of cute, fuzzy animals sitting around and not doing much of anything to instill dread and terror in the viewing audience, which works about as well as you'd think. Of course, you have to watch Rodentz all the way through, so it's still not worth it.īefore we even started it up, Rodentz was already giving us unpleasant flashbacks to Dogs, and it turns out there are some definite similarities. The Case Against: The rats in this movie are so incredibly non-threatening that if you're terrified of actual rats, watching Rodentz will probably cure you of your fear. The Case For: If you can survive the non-stop generic tedium of the first 85 minutes, the last 5 minutes will make your day. Although the fistfight with a guy in a giant rat suit at the end of the movie is a nice touch. Overview: You should already know from the title that this is just a standard grade-F- horror movie about ordinary animals suddenly becoming bloodthirsty and killing off a bunch of thirty-somethings pretending to be perky co-eds.
