OMG,I love this movie!It is great.Defintley the best killer rat film.I saw it on Sci fi,and now im defintley going to buy the DVD.Sure this movie is cheap and has bad effects,but what do you expect!It is scary and gory and thats all you need from a film like this.The people who give this movie bad reviews cant enjoy a cheap horror movie.I guess they were expecting an academy award winning masterpeice.Dont listen to them,this movie is great!Its about a young teen reporter(Sarah Downing) who goes undercover as a patient to an insane assulym.There she meets some other weird teens and makes a friend.That night her friend is killed by the rats.When the reporter finds out she is missing she starts investigating.She finds out the place is crawling with mutated rats that scientists had experimented on a long time ago.The janitor has a secret connection with the rats and the mama rat has grown huge by "feeding off his thoughts".The reporter complains to the staff,so they hire two exterminators.Unfortunatly both are killed and the rats still run free.The rats start killing the staff and the patients one by one,and the survivors try to escape.This movie is really cool.There is tons of gore.The body count at the end is high(13 I think).Anyway its a great movie.See It!!!!

Murderous mice threaten to devour hospital patients unless they're taken to their leader Mickey...just kidding.
At a mental health institution, the rats from a forgotten experiment (how anyone can forget an experiment I'll never understand, talk about a swiss cheese memory) have begun to mutate (of course) and eat the patients (guess the kitchen was out of head cheese) just as an undercover reporter checks in to do an inside story on the clinic (timing is everything, the proverbial hickory clock must not have struck one yet and the mouse is still running up it).
Okay, I have to be honest, this movie was lame. The special effects were horrible. The mother rat looked like some cheesy Halloween house decoration you'd leave out on your porch to wipe your feet on. The rat spawns had such fake glowing blue eyes you'd think they'd be blind (but then again they all had their tails and there were way more than three of them). There was even a "Willard" type character who had a telepathic bond with the rodents (all he must have heard was "Brains! Brains! Must have fresh brains!" because the rats decapitated their victims). Although if you're actually into B- horror flicks you may love this movie and think it's the Mouse King of the genre.
Ron Perlman plays the head of the institution and the head of the forgotten experiment. It's a bad movie but he at least is, as always, good. Want to know more? Remember the remarks I made earlier about head cheese and decapitations?
Definitely spend no more than a cost of a rental and definitely have a drink.

I very first saw this on the Scifi channel.It was an ok film.It has some flaws,but the acting was decent.The special effects were good,not great.Almost all the actors we no die,except the 2 main ones of course.When a teen reporter goes under cover at a building were they help teens with there problems,she finds out that there are killer rats everywere and they are starting to kill some of the patients.The momma rat is about the size of a large T.V.Anyway,now the reporter has to escape and get the patients to safety.The rats killed all of the falcuty and only 5 of the teenaged patients.In the end the reporter and her boyfriend escape along with the survivers.A good movie to rent and watch on a Saturday night.There are some really creepy moments and gory scenes,like when the momma rat is dragging the girls head across the floor leaving a trail of blood.I would recomend you to rent this not buy.
