Summary: GNAWTY RATS
Review: GNAW, FOOD OF THE GODS 2 is one of those unnecessary sequels that still manages to entertain on a purely primal level. Directed with fanatical glee by Damien Lee, the movie stars Paul Coufos (Thunderground, Busted Up) as a hunky scientist who manages to create a growth hormone that works rather speedily. It's done mainly to help an old friend (Jackie Burroughs, who must like rats--she was in the remake of Willard) with a gigantic little boy who is becoming psychotic and dangerous. That's secondary however to the rats who get loose when one of those annoying animal rights groups raids Coufos' laboratory and inadvertently release a giant rat. Other rats who have eaten the professor's genetically enhanced tomatoes soon break loose and they grow quite big too! Colin Fox (who was on a strange 70s Canadian soap called Strange Paradise) plays a jealous colleague of Coufos who makes the mistake of trying to use the hormone to stop the growth of cancer. The gore is heavy and the creatures look real maybe half the time, but the ending in the swimming pool is great, full of tacky and stupid heroics. The ending is rather abrupt and signaled a sequel, but that never happened, so we'll never know what happens to...oops, no spoiler here. If you like giant rat movies and lots of gore, you'll love this guilty pleasure!

Summary: Food Of The Gods Part II. Review
Review: If you love those good old-fashioned Saturday monster movies then you may want to take a look at this great straight-to-cable sequel about giant mutated rats that run amok at a college campus.

Of course, as is always the case, the authorities don't believe anyone and the Dean is too concerned with promoting a fundraiser for the new pool on campus so the rats keep on eating the co-eds with only one concerned Professor trying to stop them.

The film's conclusion involving giant rats showing up at the pool and eating everyone in sight is a real treat for gore fans. Of course, the dimwitted cops end up killing more people than the rats when their cross-fires end up in the crowd. These people have to be some of the dumbest victims in monster movie history.

If you can find this one, you should pick it up, if you're a fan of great old school cult horror flicks. If not, you might still get a few laughs.
