The Food of the Gods
Terencio

Look, the answer is obvious. Just find a bunch of cats and feed them the Food of the Gods.

Special effects designer Thomas R. Burman created rat costumes that allowed for the giant rats in the film to be played by child actors, including his own son.

It suddenly occurs to me to wonder why discount-bin Harrison Ford brought his very pregnant wife to a remote wilderness island in an RV.

No. No, I don’t think I want to know.

All the giant rat scenes in this movie just show us small rats up close, being normal specimens of rodentia, coupled with buckass whacko sound effects like you might hear in the background of a spooky inside roller coaster at a theme park.

While Bundle Gal bandages up Hat Gal, the two bros hatch a cunning plan to deal with the wasps, by stuffing oily rags up the wasp nest and then lighting it on fire from a safe distance. Because giant wasps store all their ammunition in their wasp nest, this makes the wasp nest explode.

"The lord healeth the sick, that's in the bible"

Great, lady, but the bible's also full of plagues, which we're really trying to avoid around here. #Monsterdon

Yes, Not-Jack-Nicholson, please discuss the legal ramifications of who owns the Rock Cum that makes giant killer animals. It's very important that we figure out how to monetize this and ensure that you own it.

That's the coming of the lord! Hahahahah! Spooge. Texas Scum. White Gold!

Effervescent oatmeal..?

(Not even the worst food innovation I've seen this week, to be honest.)

Come on baby, sweet-cheeks, love-muffins, sweet-money-cracks... they escalate with the homoromantic phrasing.

one thing a scientist would know is exactly how much funding it takes to run their lab.

So, another 70’s fright fest. Rats, capitalists, and country bumpkins. Thanks, @Taweret for bringing us all together to vent! Looking for a change of pace for next week. But no rats and no giant babies! #Monsterdon

Wow... So this stuff makes one slightly less nice?

So they killed all the big rodents and burned em up and effed off back to the mainland.

THE END

Mission Accomplished right? Big flood...dilution is the solution to pollution right? Certainly no other Large Creatures exist right?

HA

This movie is ending where it should've started WE NEED GIANT COWS

And GIANT BABIES

That would've been awesome!

Still had a fun #Monsterdon time thanks for all the big fun @Taweret !

Main bro monologues about how bad it would be if some of the food of the gods gets away while we see some floating away into a pond that cows are drinking water from, so we'll get a sequel with killer cows I guess.

Very Gary Larsen.

But one or two jars made it.

Well, that film was too long and had too many real animal killings. 😠

Thanks @Taweret and gang

Those rats chewed through the walls of a _log cabin_, we're expected to believe a hollow-core door is going to hold them off?? Those things can't withstand an over-energetic eight year old falling into them!

uhhhhh or so I have heard

Even knowing that it's paintballs, I don't like super cute rats getting shot. They don't look like giant terrifying monsters. They are so cute!

Hahaha

Those rats have hacked our WiFi! No calls will go through!

After escaping some rats, sidekick bro is eaten by other rats. Main bro comes back to the cabin to toss the jars of rock cum out of Not-Jack-Nicholson's trunk, making Not-Jack-Nicholson mad, but this doesn't matter because he is then eaten by rats.

Having seen Night of the Living Dead and also Zulu, the surviving puny humans opt to fortify the cabin and start shooting the giant rats outside. I hope no real rats were harmed in the making of this movie.
