Standout Aspects

Practical Effects

The giant rat puppet deserves its own credit and possibly therapy.

Production

Shot in COVID lockdown with whatever locations they could steal.

Best for:Friends: Drunk movie night where you roast the giant rat puppet together.·Solo: 2 AM curiosity spiral about how this got made.·Background: Fold laundry while vaguely aware a mutant rat is loose.
