You won't be disappointed!
A lot of fun.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
My first hint should have been that the movie was capitalizing on the fact it was written by Bran Stoker. I was hooping for something better than Bram Stoker's Lair of the White Worm (it would not be difficult) or "Bram Stoker's The Mummy" (the short story was Jewel of the Seven Stars) and was disappointed. This was far worse than the other two. Adrienne Barbeau herself said she only made the movie because she needed a new roof on her house and she had hoped it would never be released.Shot with no budget (except what was used to pay Barbeau) in an Eastern European country that was under civil war at the time, Burial of the Rats tells the story of Bram Stoker being kidnapped by a cult known as The Rat Women. So right off, we know he will survive or the story will never get written. I have tried to get my hands on a copy of the novella, so I cannot say how this compares to the book, but we have a lot of preaching about how evil civilization and men are, Stoker pretends to follow the Rat Women and promises to champion their cause, the Rat Women pretend to believe him, Barbeau breaks her flute that controls the rats and is eaten alive and if we have not clawed our eyes out yet we go out and get drunk so we can forget the movie.
i recently saw buriel of the rats and it was great! Yes it was low budget, and yes it featured a mostly unknown cast(with the exception of miss barbeau)but it was entertaining as hell! the story of course follows the tale of author bram stoker and his fathers run with a bunch of cult rat worshipping women..who leader was the pied pipers evil twin sister! The story line alone is worth a look! lecherous priest,scantly clad women,and a young hero looking to get laid...it doesn't get better than this. another fun masterpiece from the roger corman stable..check it out. you will not be disappointed , i wasn't..i just wish Hollywood made movies like this more often...take a lesson from the master himself rog corman!
This movie flat sucked. But I sat through every nauseating scene just to see Maria Ford, as I'm sure was the point. This film was probably someone's psych 101 project. "Will Men Sit Through The Most Mind-Numbing Drivel, Just To See A Hot Naked Body?"Yes Mr Freud, we will.
A really schlockie TV movie. Bram Stoker helps a bunch of Bimbos who're into rats kick butt on all guys. Bram Stoker. No kidding. Adrienne Barbeau is the Queen of the Rat Gals.
