One good movie and another okay movie for the price of one!.......2004-07-02
Rats, on the other hand, is a film where every death scene is so off it's not funny or cool. The main characters come off as goofy super-heroes (one by the name of 'video'). The rat action is mis-guided and comical, the director didn't believe in realism whatsover with the gore effects and character reaction--the dubbing doens't help either. I give this DVD 2 stars by itself, but Hell of the Living Dead is so awesome, it's a good deal to get two DVDs for the price of one.

Rats -a snuff film?.......2004-05-07
It's pretty clear that these are LIVE RATS and not fake ones that are being hurled through the air; being kicked; having objects thrown at them; ; and to top it off, quite possibly being lit on fire.
Considering how low-budget this film is, I would have prefered to see rubber or plastic rats used instead; this would have just added to the campiness of the movie. But instead we get live rats being brutalized for an hour and a half.
"Rats" is a snuff film. If you get off on this sort of thing, then knock yourself out. If you care about animals (and not just the cute, domesticated kind), then you'll do well by avoiding this one.
I only got halfway through the movie; I was too upset to finish "Rats" to see what other horrors befell the poor rodents. As far as "Hell of the Living Dead" -AKA "Night of the Zombies"- goes, all I remember about this one is that this was the first zombie movie I ever saw -around twenty years ago, when I was about eight or nine. I watched it, went to bed and in the middle of the night awoke, went to the bathroom and threw up. I doubt there is any cause and effect relationship here. This movie is probably too cheesy to be vomit-inducing. But after witnessing Mattei's cruelty displayed in "Rats", I don't have much intention of giving his movies any more of my time to get in a second viewing. And believe me, I love zombie movies.
Sorry if this seems like only a partial review, but I mainly just wanted to get the word out about "Rats".
