After her fashion model sister is brutally murdered on a tropical island, Terry (Janet Agren, City of the Living Dead), flies out to investigate the shocking crime. As the mystery deepens, Terry and her new friend Fred (David Warbeck, The Last Hunter) quickly find that there is a killer on the loose! As the body count mounts, the survivors work desperately to out-maneuver the shadowy monster that is hunting them down one by one. Could it be Dr. Olman’s deadly genetic experiment has escaped from captivity, or is it just a typical knife-wielding psychopath?
Produced by Fabrizio De Angelis (The Beyond), Directed by Giuliano Carnimeo (Exterminators of the Year 3000), Written by Dardano Sacchetti (Bronx Warriors), with a score by Stefano Mainetti (Zombie 3), and starring the one and only Nelson de la Rosa as “Mousey” (The Island of Dr. Moreau), Rat Man is exactly what you’d expect in a late 80s bloody and unhinged Italian horror meltdown!
