TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

MovieGuy01 I though that Ratman was quite a good film to watch. It is about a maniac who butchers a fashion model on a Caribbean island and leaves the body to be eaten by rats. The model's sister suspects something isn't quite right with the police investigation and decides to go to find out by herself. With her friend, Fred, their investigation's lead them to an unknown part of the island where they discover a rat like man. The creature is killed by Fred, but the true horror of the rats nature is just about to start. This ended up being a good film to watch. There is quite a lot of strong gory violence and nudity in the film for viewers which may be a bit to much for some people.

Rapeman 2' 4¼" tall Nelson De La Rosa - aka Mahow - stars in this piece of Italian trash cinema as Ratman, a rat / monkey hybrid who is on the loose on a tropical island attacking & killing swimsuit models and anyone else who crosses his path. De La Rosa is the world's smallest actor (and a creepy little motherf ucker!) and in 1990 was certified in the Guiness Book of World Records as the smallest man on earth, (although this is untrue, there are 2 other people in the world smaller than him - Gul Mohammed from India and Lin Yu-Cheh of Taiwan) he died recently on October 22nd 2006.The thread-bare plot involves a "mad scientist" that creates this insane little mutant – for what reason we never find out – which promptly escapes and starts randomly killing people (mainly females). While on the island looking for her missing sister, Janet Agren (Eaten Alive, City of the Living Dead) meets up with crime novelist David Warbeck (Black Cat, The Beyond), and together they start to investigate the murders. Eva Grimaldi (Convent of Sinners, Quiet Days in Clichy) is also hanging around and treats us all to a titillating shower scene, which ups the pretty much nonexistent sleaze-factor a bit.Although written by Dardano Sacchetti & Elisa Briganti (Zombie, House By the Cemetery), this flick is pretty much dullsville: there's a bit of blood splattered around but very little gore apart from one scene where De La Rosa cannibalizes a victims stomach, a lot of ''filler'', bad dubbing, and you don't see Ratman half as much as I would've liked to – although when he does appear it definitely makes for the most entertaining parts of the film, so its not a complete waste of time. The films director, Giuliano Carnimeo has also directed Case of the Bloody Iris, numerous Spaghetti Westerns and wrote the infamous violent and sleazy Giallo, The Killer is Still Among Us. 6/10

ChiefGoreMongral Ratman is one of those movies you are going to like it or hate it for me it was the first more than the last. Ratman is just that a genetically breed crossbreed between human and rat.What you get for 90 minutes is a paper thin plot about a model and photographer who are going to go into the woods for more exotic locale pics and ending up getting more than they bargain for with the title character not wanting to smile for the camera. There is a side plot that has this model's sister coming to find out if she has been killed only to find another model matching her description has been slaughtered by old RM and also the scientist who made him trying to recapture him again.From there it is a cat and "rat" game with the cast running from the RatMan and boy is it funny. This mug is about 2 feet tall at best and bites scratches and claws people to their deaths. The movie works best on a cheese level whenever the Rat Man is on the screen he brings a smile to my face as he leaps at people with his high pitch squeal and takes them out.The ending in itself was interesting but I could have been better if they would have shown what was happening as Rat Man has stowed away in typical rat fashion on an airplane. The movie ends with the screaming passengers. Man I wish they would have shown him leaping on those people and doing a number on them.In closing a guilty pleasure film if I've ever seen one, if you like midget killers and hot Italian women then you will want to check this out. Heck if you like cheesy monster action check this out also. with alittle more gore this could have been in my highly recommended rating zone but since it falls a tad short there I'm giving Rat Man: 6/10: Cult worth film and a good way to waste a Saturday Afternoon (as I did with this one).RatMan, other than a German DVD Release by X-Rated (under the title Terror House) with no English audio or subs has no official U.S. release. The best way to get this is my magic word "special order". Remember if your going to see only one mutant Rat Man movie see....well uh....there is only one!!!Until next time Ghouls! Mongral Out!

Laserdome-AMH Somewhere in the Dominican Republic, a scientist creates a cross between rat and ape, which is poisonous and feeds on human flesh. Of course, the creature escapes and starts to kill everywhere. The sister of a missing model and an author of television crime stories start to investigate on their own and follow the monster's bloody route...This was one of the last "big" Italian gore shockers and has all the ingredients we've come to expect from such films as it is sleazy, sexist, gory and stupid as hell (heck, the scientist even wants to win the Nobel price for his monster!). The creature itself is, and that's a bit of a surprise, astoundingly scary (and ugly, too). However, as we can see the monster before it escapes and starts its killing spree and the director seems more interested in showing tits and gore than anything else, there's not much of suspense in the film. However it was nice to see the return of Italian horror film veterans David Warbeck and Janet Agren. A movie for fans.
