"This one is going to make you squirm." (ComingSoon.net)

Lurking in unseen corners and crevices all over the world, rats thrive as one of the most elusive creatures.Their existence flourishes around the globe – from the fractures in Manhattan’s sidewalks to the dark streets of Mumbai, these disease-carrying animals are near impossible to exterminate. Inspired by Robert
Sullivan’s New York Times bestselling book "Rats: Observations on the History & Habitat of the City’s Most Unwanted Inhabitants," Oscar-nominated director Morgan Spurlock unveils a new form of
documentary horror storytelling, journeying around the world to bring viewers face to face with rats while delving into our complicated relationship with these creepy creatures.

RATS takes audiences to places never before captured on film highlighting animal and human behavior demonstrating how real life is often scarier than fiction. From the deep and dark corners of New York City’s parks, subway tunnels, and sewers; to scientific labs of New Orleans, and onto the rice fields in Cambodia and restaurants of Vietnam, Spurlock takes viewers on a thrilling ride uncovering the various places rats call home. The film also ventures to streets in India paroled by the revered Night Rat Killers, the English countryside where packs of terriers kill rats daily, and uncovers a temple in India where these animals are worshipped.

"Rats is a rare doc that both informs and gets under your skin. Beautifully shot and with terrific pace and an effective, over-the-top horror score, it's easily one of the most evocative and downright frightening non-fiction films of the year." (POV Magazine)
