Casper Van Dien Vs. a Rat Army in This Absurd Trailer For RATPOCALYPSE
"If they think we're going down without a fight… Oh hell gnaw!"
So, uh... Casper Van Dien stars in a movie called Ratpocalypse. In it, we see the actor battle a horde of rats that are taking over Moscow. In the story, Van Dien plays a Senator who gives a speech about corruption and claims that it will turn them into rats. Turns out, people actually start turning into rats. Yep... this is a real movie that exists and here's the synopsis:
American Senator John Perryman (Casper Van Dien), a man of pure and humble soul with a warrior's disposition, delivers a fiery speech in Moscow about the country's main evil - corruption. A corruption so pervasive it will turn men into “rats.” He declares that he was ordered to speak to them from above and threatens everyone with the loss of their human form, which draws only guffaws and resentment from the people. Many take the Senator for a madman as gradually, all his friends and relatives turn away from him. Eventually the Senator meets a mysterious girl in the streets who seems to be his guardian angel but soon, everything he talked about in Moscow begins to come true, triggering panic in Russia and around the world. Full of unexpected moments and plot twists both curious and amusing, Ratpocalypse brings the intimidating and often horrific world of politics to new levels of reality.
The movie was released in Moscow back in 2015, but it is now being released in the states on December 12th. The movie was directed by first-time Russian filmmaker Vladimir Uglichin. Watching this trailer was enough for me. I'll be skipping this one.
