For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
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.
I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
RAT SCRATCH FEVER is another indie science fiction film done on a very low budget which simply isn't enough to bring the required special effects to life. It's about a plague of super-rats invading the Earth and only a lone space woman having the power to save mankind. This lamentable B-flick feels like an average episode of RED DWARF only cheaper. It's chock full of bad CGI effects and quickly descends into headache-inducing inanity.
An army of giant carnivorous rats with glowing red eyes are accidentally brought back to Earth on a shuttle from an ill-fated space mission. The enormous rodents invade Los Angeles. Rugged ex-Marine Jake Walsh (an earnest and engaging portrayal from Ford Austin) must prevent his infected astronaut girlfriend Sonja Trenton (a solid performance by Tasha Tacosa) from helping the vile vermin in taking over our planet.Writer/director Jeff Leroy keeps the enjoyably loopy story moving along at a brisk pace, maintains an engaging tongue-in-cheek tone throughout, delivers oodles of outrageous over-the-top blood-spurting splatter, makes neat use of both cool CGI and nifty old school practical effects such as miniatures, and concludes the film on a pleasingly dark'n'downbeat note. Moreover, it's acted with gusto by an enthusiastic cast, with especially lively contributions from Randal Malone as the sinister Dr. Christopher Steele, Phoebe Dollar as the hard-as-nails Jennifer, and John C. Mayer as unflappable newscaster Brock Coldfield. Leroy's sharp cinematography provides an impressive polished look. Andrew Crandall's groovy-grinding score does the right-on rocking trick. A total blast.
Giant Rats,Ford Austin sweats Machismo and cool explosions and rides ! Okay,So we open on a exotic Planet X and it's really neat,Until you get the extras viewed and found out it is a Porno Set .The acting was on par with any on SYFY Channel and the deaths are more than that channel can handle.We like this film on so many levels,That the budget cannot explain,Amazing look seen through out film.Tasha as the lead goes thru a variety of emotions and always has this vulnerable,but menacing undertone.Ford was at his pinnacle as a zero-budget leading man and really tries hard to show multiple sides to a character that is basically not likable.Randal was truly stretching his acting skills with props,makeup and costume that made sense,In this scenario.Leroy uses big real rats,Alongside his REEL RATS and his Remote control vehicles have it all in gear and his scale models of Los Angeles are breathtaking.
Jeff Leroy continues with his non-stop carnage and annihilation of EVERYTHING in sight. It doesn't matter what it is.....human, rat, tank, TV, brick wall. Everything is blown to smithereens. If you've seen his other flicks like CREEPIES and WEREWOLF IN A WOMENS PRISON, you know he's obsessed with models and miniatures.These movies are not to be taken seriously, so disregard anybody commenting about the "bad" effects. They're meant to look like that. This is a parody of giant monster movies. Ford Austin steals the show as the Bruce Campbell hero type. I love the fact that there's no slowdown in this film. Not much time for gab. There's something happening every two minutes. Somebody get this director a bigger budget. Definitely a party movie. Invite a dozen friends over, order some pizzas, and enjoy.
