Overview

Morgan and his friends are on a hunting trip on a remote Canadian island when they are attacked by a swarm of giant wasps. Looking for help, Morgan stumbles across a barn inhabited by an enormous killer chicken. After doing some exploring, they discover the entire island is crawling with animals that have somehow grown to giant size. The most dangerous of all of these, however, are the rats, who are mobilizing to do battle with the human intruders.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A creature feature where mundane island wildlife turns grotesquely monstrous, creating an escalating sense of siege as hunters become the hunted. It's B-movie creature horror that plays its absurd premise with straight-faced intensity.
