Well, I may never poop again. Thanks, Morgan Spurlock.
For some people, it’s snakes or spiders. While I’m not
overly fond of those particular creepy crawlies, the ones that truly skeeve me
out like no other, the ones that give me actual nightmares, are rats. (Bats
freak me the fuck out, but they’re generally easier to avoid in real life.) The
Academy Award-nominated documentarian behind the likes of Super Size
Me, Freakonomics, and others is back with his
latest, simply titled Rats. I’m willing to bet you can guess
what it’s about.
After debuting at the Toronto International Film Festival,
Rats just dropped a new trailer. Check it out below and
prepare for a serious case of the heebie jeebies.
An in depth history of rat infestation in major metropolitan
areas around the world, Rats looks fascinating, but also
cringe inducing. No joke, this trailer legitimately gave me nightmares last
night.
This makes my skin crawl more than any horror movie I’ve
ever seen, and from what we see here, there’s an almost apocalyptic edge to Rats.
Again, fascinating, but horrifying. And Jesus, if Ghoulies
made you afraid to sit on a toilet, you haven’t seen anything yet.
Based on Robert Sullivan's book of the same name, Rats debuts on Discovery Channel on
October 22. This is going to be rough to watch.
