This movie suddenly gets much more adorable when you realize...
Because these rats are actually dogs wearing costumes...
Whenever a "victim" gets tackled and eaten, they're actually getting their faces licked by a bunch of little doggos!
I did. And if I ever get a weiner dog, I'm putting it in a rat costume every Halloween.
They put dog food and corn syrup blood on our faces to make them eat our faces off
@@StompyHollo Oh, you were one of the people on the movie?
AsterOrca yes I had a great time making the movie. I’m the guy in the blue ski vest in the theatre
@@StompyHollo Cool! It's an honor.
The weenie-rats run is unmistakable if you've had Dachshunds! LOL Gives a whole new meaning to the term "rat-dogs."
me and a friend once stayed up all night eating pizza, drinking cherry vodka, and watched this, at the earth's core, and the deadly spawn. then we played golden eye till dawn. i regret NOTHING!
mephosto honestly I'd have probably done the same thing too
GoldenEye.... Thems was good times !!!
Is there any other way to live?
That sounds like an awesome night. ☺️
Regret? NEVER!
Capybaras are actually quite gentle.
Yup they’re also cute the only problem is that they’re everywhere big and seem to have a liking for jumping in front of cars, and they end up doing some damage to car and are tough enough to walk it off
That is a species that has weaponized inner peace.
Fun fact: the girl who’s crushing on the teacher is played by Lisa Langlois who was in another fantastic 1982 exploitation movie called “Class of 1984.” She plays a member of a teenage gang who wage a gang war against the newest teachers. It was co-written and directed by Mark Lester, who would work on “Firestarter” and “Commando.” It was also co-written by Tom Holland who would direct “Fright Night” and “Child’s Play.” It was also one of the first roles of Michael J. Fox. It’s pretty awesome.
My mom told me a story of how when she and my dad were walking through New York she glanced in a window of a closed down restaurant and commented about how a dog got in there. My dad looked and they realized it was actually an absolutely massive rat because back then New York had a huge huge rat problem. I don’t know if that’s the case any more, I know there’s rats but I don’t know if the big ones are still a problem.
After you pointed out the rats being dogs in costumes I noticed that you can actually see their little gallop when they run and sometimes it seems like there’s a tail wagging under the costume, they must’ve had fun. It’s really cute and a cool way to have giant rats interact with people.
Worst "Rats of NIMH" sequel EVER!
a bit late i know, but i fear i must direct you to "the secret of N.I.M.H 2 Timmy to the rescue"... (shudders)
@@beowulfiow Frankly, this movie would have been improved by the presence an experimented mouse with the voice of Eric Idle.
“...Crrrush his bones.” -Jenner
@@beowulfiow
That film doesn’t exist! It does not eekxist... Stupid Timmy story.
Alternative title: Roidents.
Nice
Even better if the movie was set in australia
In Australia you'd have to have marsupial mice
Coming soon: Roidents vs. Gatoroid vs. Python

The creepy thing here is that there ARE rats this big. They are called wharf rats and I often see them in Long Beach here in California. They are literally the size of a medium size dog. But they are nowhere near this aggressive.
WRATH2501 we have some here in the south they are called Neturas. We just refer to them as lake rats. A not overly aggresive animal they would rather avoid humans than attack them.
I'm not sure, but, I believe those wharf rats originated in Cuba. I remember a marine buddy of mine telling me about them.
varanid9 Yeah scary huh. I live in Texas and we have'em. Probably came in with settlers over the years. I know the biggest rat on the planet is the Capibarya from Africa. These things can be the size of large dogs. They use them as pets.
ghostofkrows Capybaras are from South America, not Africa. They are also not rats, though they are rodents. They're closer in relation to guinee pigs. They are also herbivores, so they are usually much more harmless than the omnivorous rats.
There's apparently a story of a clean-up crew or some similar group being attacked by giant mutant rats in Chernobyl.
They killed Scatman Crothers! The giant rats must pay!
They killed off Jazz from Transformers!!
I wish I would get attacked by a swarm of Dachshunds.
Add that to the list of ways I wanna die
Everyone should read the book this is based on its the 1st in a rat trilogy set in London and they are amazing!!!
Do you mean the James Herbert rat books ? I used to love them when I was a kid
Thanks mate, I'm definitely going to read the trilogy!!!👍😎
@@mauricedavis8261 the first book is brutal the second one is also pretty harsh and the third is a post apocalyptic nightmare lmao
@@Legs05 Once again thanks, I'll be looking forward to the journey!!!👍😷
It has an old game on the C64 made based on it too
I can't help but laugh really hard *every* *single* *time* I see a wave of running weiner dogs dressed as rats 😂😂😂
Brandon’s utterance of “soury” during a Canada movie is perfect.
The dogs dressed as rats here at least look more convincing than those from The Killer Shrews...
watch it on a bigger screen and you'll think otherwise. Besides, The Killer Shrews was a faster, tighter directed film. And, though I also think dressing dogs up as rodents is silly, I suppose an argument could be made that, if an animal is going to get that big, in order to move fast, the laws of physics dictate that it should develop along those lines, but, I would be putting way too much thought and logic into movies like these.
No, when I saw Killer Shrews I immediately said "Wow, those are fucking dogs covered in drags, they didn't even try" and the puppets from that movie also sucked. At least here when the rats move they kinda look like real rats and the animatronics are more animated.
Oooooofff
Wait...I’m scared are they real 😰😰😰😰😰
That was I was thinking!
Made my day with the Police Squad opening theme! Then got sad realizing how many people would not know what that was...
I rewatch that part so many times dying laughing every time!
I do
Timestamp?
Rats... WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE RATS?! Then again, with all the environmentalist attacks going on now, I think they would be the perfect candidate apart from crocodiles and hawks to launch an all-out attack on the human race. In fact, the nature-revenge flick definitely needs to make a comeback, the time is ripe.
"Holy Shit, Killer Squirrels!!!" Should of been an actual 80s horror movie.
Vermintide taught me never to trust rats!
Ah a man of culture
I'm sure the lecture on rats in this movie was fine, but nothing beats Peter Weller discussing the history of rats and their place in the world at a fancy dinner party in Of Unknown Origin.
Is that the one where he fights the giant rat with a baseball bat with big nails pounded through it? That was groovy.
Love this movie. The best killer rat move imo. It delivers exactly what you want.
Back when this used to play on HBO, I had the movie memorized so that I'd know right when Lisa Langlois' bedroom scene was coming on. Best part of the movie IMHO. :)
That flirty student was in Class of 1984 and Happy Birthday to Me, two other good Canadian exploitation movies.
Lisa Langlois. And her boyfriend at the cinema was also in Class of 1984. He threw himself from a flag post, completely stoned after taken too much stuff that he bought from Peter Stegman.
And The Nest which wasn't Canadian but has killer cockroaches!
Want to make a real horror movie swap the rats for Kenny's!
The world's not ready for that kind of horror.
Aside from the shining, this has to be one of the only movies where curiosity kills the Scat.
Would like to see Brandon review the Maneater movie series (a series of Syfy Channel movies initially featuring killer animals, but later on also includes killer mythical creatures, aliens, demons, and even a killer scarecrow) in the future.
Got to admit, the weiner dog effect was fun.
"You live by the rat, you die by the rat." Classic
This is how I know I'm stupid. My first thought was why didn't he text her to let her know that there was something up with the subway. In 1982...
Yeah, because 1982. If you wanted to "text" someone back then, you had to sit down at a typewriter and type it out, then mail it via the post office.
Look at it this way, if he did have a mobile phone, he could have used it to club the rats with, using his early 80's Brick-Phone
@@maxbrandt6 Or if you were like 1 in 300 people in America who knew what a Bulletin Board System was.
@@Crrrow Yes, I remember those too, usually in work places and school planning rooms and college dorm dayrooms where people would usually meet up for whatever reason. That how you sold stuff, found babysitters or the big party. Times have certainly changed!
@@Crrrow Or are you talking about the precursor to the modern day Internet which was structured much like how Craigslist is? You had to have one of those large modems you placed your home phone on hooked up to your IBM PC, made a horrific squealing/buzzing noise if you picked up a phone in the other room and tried to use it.
In the DVD BTS interviews the director said it was a myth that the movie was based off the book The Rats. It was just a rumor spreading about the movie's inspiration. The director said he based the movie off of the Corman B-horror Piranha being on land rather than water. Piranha was, in turn, based off of Jaws. All three movies carried the same formula; somebody dies at the opening, then someone figures out what's happening, the authorities are unconvinced, more people die, the heroes have to take them on themselves.
That's a lil suspicious considering the book also has a theater and subway rat attack.
And the main character is a male teacher who gets involved when his student gets bitten.
I thought he was going to say something like, "people haven't run from a movie theater so fast since James Holmes walked in dressed as the joker..."
Giant rodents played by dogs. Hmm 🤔...I can’t help but wonder if the makers of this movie were influenced by the special effects that were used in The Killer Shrews.
Mystery Science Theater mocked the movie and one puppet kept saying: "they're dogs, they're dogs"
I just kept thinking that having dozens of weiner dogs on set would have been super adorable
Supposedly one of the dogs died from suffocating in the suit unfortunately
Zombiedude Yeah, I heard about that. What a sad shame 😔! And for what price? Just to make a movie.
Was going to check it out until I found out. Whoever it was that fucked up can go to hell.
12:25 "I don't like you sitting there watching Television all the time!" And then the camera pans over to the Tv sitting on a stack of books, which the father had to have set up. Love subtle irony jokes like that. LOL
I'm surprised no one ever made a film about giant carnivorous squirrels since, apparently, those did exist in prehistoria.
I can’t believe I’ve never mentioned this before, but that is a very good dog in the thumbnail.
EDIT: 4:01 and a cat! A very good cat!
Wiener dogs in killer rat costumes? THAT'S ADORABLE!!!😊
Thought of you when I saw this:
Canadian Standoff: Occurs when two individuals cross paths and each politely suggests that the other may go first.
Glad you did a video for DEADLY EYES. Such an underrated film. One of the best killer rat movies. If that means anything.
Damn homie, i would of thought you had a couple million subscribers. Keep doing exactly what you been doing and you got it made...
End of the Line is pretty great!
The fact you watched Things, and know End of the Line, has me so happy I found this channel.
"Aw man! Rats even killed her sister-mom!"
🤣
whats crazy is i've seen every movie you have done a review except maybe 4 or 5 growing up lol, dude keep it coming!
Love the book. Avoided the movie like I would avoid the plauge. No need to watch it because it is perfectly and hilariously summed up here. This was funny. Has anyone seen Zombeavers?
Wait that's a real thing
Does Scatman ever survive any film he is part of!!!😱
Transformers The Movie 😆
Watching this, i couldn't get the image of weenier dogs taking the rats place and run around like normal dogs
This movie really takes the CHEESY route, if you know what I mean ;)
Hudson" how they cut the power ,man? they are animals!" DUD! those editions of you, are great XD
Montreal Canada 🇨🇦 actually had the very first light rail train tracks systems. Before Minneapolis minnesota built there's in the early 2000s. Clearly showing at the beginning of the movies run. My great great message is out again! Have a very impressive beautiful 😍 day.
Do Steven kings graveyard shift
The hash slinging slasher!
The Rats by James Herbert is one of my all time fave books. This movie looks...interesting. Great review
Those rat puppets/costumes were shot in a surprisingly decent manner. They are made to seem quite realistic considering the genre.
Oh wow, I forgot about this movie; my parents had it on VHS when I was a teenager - they got it as part of a huge clearance sale when a local rental store went out of business.
I almost forgot about that...
3:57 Why Scatman Crothers wearing the same clothes from The Shining ?
Ah maple syrup,moose,geese,and giant rats what can’t Canada do wrong.
Haden Poxon it’s just a joke I didn’t mean it to come across as racist...
Haden Poxon no it’s fine I forgive you
andy johns sexy PM's
Yes sir, that meal cooking scene was INTENSE!!!😅
This is the first of your videos I watched. Even still after all these years I still consider you one of my favorite content creators next to Ranboo, JimmyHere and Wendigoon
"surfer Davey Crockett"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome review, Brandon, I think this one was the best yet, all of your movie jokes were hillarious
3:59 Scatman Crothers holding a cat...
And to be fair in his death scene, it's probably hard to do anything but laugh and giggle when getting 'mauled' by Dachshunds in rat costumes.
Great video Brandon as always
another gem that was missing from my collection thanks Brandon :)
The random insert clip of ALIENS. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Watching the intro to your son of canuxsploitation broke me...I LOVE IT!
Lisa Langlois and Joseph Kelly the stars of this movie also did the Canadian Class of 1984 that year also
Dogs in rat costumes? At least they didn't do a movie with dogs in shrew costuuu---- Oh yeah.
God damn I'm glad this movie isn't nearly as awful as Killer Shrews.
LOL Stevie Wonder could see they were dogs man that movie sucked. On the plus side it starred a very young James Best in all his handsome glory
When is someone gonna make a movie about rats in dog costumes. Oh wait, Chihuahuas. Nevermind.
They should've used chinese crested dogs. First time I saw one I thought it was a mutant rat. Still not 100% convinced
I love what you tell us about movie reviews ❤
7 months later and that Battlefield Earth joke still gets me...
Please review Night of the Lepus! The most adorable monster movie ever made!
Weiner Dogs dressed in rat costumes is the most adorable practical special effect I've ever seen
4:05 is that Melvin Van Peebles... he was in the Shinning mini series (edit: Benjamin Sherman "Scatman" Crothers (May 23, 1910 - November 22, 1986) was an American actor, singer, dancer and musician known for his work as Louie the Garbage Man on the TV show Chico and the Man, and as Dick Hallorann in The Shining in 1980.
15:07 "Goddamn, people haven't fled from a movie theatre this fast since Battlefield Earth's opening weekend" XD
killer rat movie "Mulberry St." it's awesome, turns people into rat zombies, very good, check it out
Thanks, will do.
It was ok, nothing I'd watch a second time.
FUCK THAT MOVIE! The black guy had a wonderful little kitty who got killed, they can suck dick whoever made that crap
Will so what happens when a necromancer resurrects skaven
Bro u need to review burial ground & invasion of the blood farmers. Both are cheesy as fuck but burial ground has waaaaaaaay more fucked up shit going on trust me.
Your stuff is great, I discovered you while watching Godzilla vids lol and gotta say your content is awesome. Also, surprised ya didn't make a Ratitulie joke
I love the way he says sorry
I saw that movie when I was in first grade: first time I had cable(1983).
Those obviously-dachshunds hade the opposite of their intended effect on me. When the movie shows a horde of mutant creatures going in for the kill, I don't think, "Awww" is the response the creators had in mind. I just imagine the crew before each scene having to put halloween costumes on a herd of squirming weener dogs. All the fake blood in the world can't compete with that amount of cuteness.
You know where is the big snake when you need them
15:42 The hell did they get this train attendant, Juliard?
If you want to do a movie about Giant Rats, there is the Korean knockoff/bootleg movie Our Friend Power 5, with Giant Alien Rats, Giant Alien Turtles, Go Bots, and a Kenny or two.
CWDTrixie I see you saw Phelan’s review yesterday as well
Lol I saw it to
Yeah I love Phelous but the second I saw the review I thought "I should've been Brandon."
I thought that exact same thing to, this fits right into Brandons movie theme. Be fun to see him get a copy somehow and review it.
How did I not know about this? I am off off off to check it out. Giant turtles!!! Go Bots!! Yes!!
At 18:05 you predict the future of... "Joker" (2019).
There, talk-show host Murray Franklin (De Niro) jokes about the "giant rats problem" in Gotham, stating that the mayor has a solution: SUPER CATS!
Allison Pregler led me to your channel
"Your genitals are not up to code and need to be condemned" is the new way I reject men. Thank you for that.
Any movie with Scatman Carothers is worth watching.
Good thing the rats weren’t on yolks. That would be bad 😨😋
I hope he does FOOD OF THE GODS II. That movie was unintentionally funny, and so many technical goofs.
James Herbert's book is good largely because of its early 1970s London setting. I haven't seen this film so not sure that aspect translates.
If I ever run for office I'll run on the "24 rats for every person" platform.
I guess it's year of the rat in Cannada.
Thank you for the videos. Canadian giant rat movies rock and I did see this. Rats on roid rage was a great idea and the puppets were definitely puppets.
"And look alive ladies you're never going to become cheerleaders for the Warriors with moves like that." Thanks for representing the Bay Area. GO DUBBS!!!!
"All the free health care in the world isn't going to help you, buddy!"
LOVE the Police Squad reference!
The last time I saw this many people flee in terror from a movie theater, Bucky Larson had just opened.
I'm pretty sure at least one of those pics of rats at the beginning was a possum.
Well that was quite the Cop-out ending for a killer Rat movie.
You know I thought of suggesting you review ''leonard part 6'' but, honestly, I could not live with myself if you suffered that horror because of me.
Damn I love this channel!
They don't have Springs they have leg muscles to make them jump
11:22 Yeah, And People Wonder Why He Was Cast As The Hulk In The 70's TV Show, And 80's TV Movies.
So it begins (epic music starts to pla... (Canuxploitation-A-Thon Music starts playing)..oh wai.. you now what, im not even mad, this is awsome :D
