Rats: Night of Terror

1984 · 97 min

A grimy, gleefully cheap creature-feature that piles on squealing rats and lurid gore with deadpan seriousness, so it plays as grimly absurd fun.

Tagline: Mutants of a nuclear disaster
Overview: One hundred years after a nuclear war has devastated the planet, society has been reborn into two factions; the underground society and the scavangers above in the wastelands. A group of scavangers on bikes come across a town infested with flesh eating rats, and soon the gore is spilling everywhere.
How it feels: Dark, campy, tense and absurd. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Survival, isolation, death, betrayal
Content: Strong violence and gore. Mild sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
