Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

insomniac_rod "Food For The Gods II" offers cheap gory entertainment and may only be enjoyed by fans of the 80's craziness. Sure, the movie is cheesy as hell (come on, those giant rats!) but it will surely entertain you.The poorly done f/x and make-up add a sense of B-movie but I'm sure that the producers tried to make a serious Horror... I guess.You know the plot. I have warned you. This is an extremely cheesy Horror movie with lots of gore, and rat violence. You have to watch it with very low expectations in order to truly enjoy it.The scene where the mad scientist melts down may be one of the most incredibly cartoonish scenes in Horror. The way how his brain still pumps is laughable. Also, when the rats attack in the pool (a cool scene) you can say that in order to create the effect of a giant rat, the director focused on the rat's head with a zoom. Oh, and the rats' POV is stuff for legend.I don't know but I somehow enjoyed this one. The movie has action and gore all the time! You can't say that it's not entertaining. Plase, track this movie and watch it if you are in the mood for super 80's Horror and cheese. This may not be MSKT material but it's definitely a movie to laugh about. The best thing about it is the always beautiful Lisa Schrage.

Steve Nyland (Squonkamatic) Once again my ability to be entertained finds it's happy place at the near lowest common denominator one can possibly find: A movie about growth hormone mutated rats chewing their way through the supporting cast of an unnamed Canadian university. Packed with in jokes, sight-gags and made by people who were using their brains for more than shoulder ballast, I found this to be a rip-roaring entertainment heightened by the ingenious way that miniature sets, forced perspective shots and other gimmicks were used to create monster rats, an over-sized university professor, and a giant mutant kid who's escape at the conclusion of the film was the perfect open ending. And I hope nobody ever makes a FOTG Pt3 to show what happens to him: some things are best left to the imagination.Anyone familiar with the abysmal 1976 film of more or less the same name can rest assured: Part 2 has absolutely nothing to do with the original FOTG, setting off on a totally independent storyline which produces more or less the same results -- giant rats eating people, a universally frightening concept -- though this film is correctly played for laughs where the original was a semi-serious ecological horror flick unable to overcome it's underlying stupidity.This one works because it embraced that stupidity & went with it.THE PLOT: An overachieving researcher develops a growth hormone formula, tests it on some tomatoes which are then eaten by a cage full of lab rats who get big and eat people. End of story.Along the way, the film takes hilarious pot-shots at such deserving targets as animal rights activists, liberal university administrations, the police, Clint Eastwood, and synchronized swimming. In fact the minute that the evil Dean character voiced concern that an effort to corral the mutant rats might interfere with the opening of a new pool complex I knew that the climax would be fun, though the bigger laugh came when he referred to "all the rich alumni with their checkbooks" who would be in attendance. Everyone whom I went to college with is as broke as I am, except the worms who weaseled their way into teaching or other academic positions. Like research work.Look, if you're going to be sitting down and watching a film about mutant rats on the rampage the last thing in the world you're really going to fret over are convincing performances, slick special effects and a coherent plot, so why not approach the material at an angle & have some fun? On that level of consideration this film is a minor masterpiece, and anyone who finds it to be prurient or juvenile in nature is simply refusing to play along with the fun.Highly recommended as a "party movie", with plenty of laughs, some repulsive gore and even a few bared breasts here & there.But if you're looking for a serious film, well that's why they make DVDs of CITIZEN KANE, and you'd be advised to stick with that. But for those with a sense of humor and a love for low-middle budget horror this flick is very hard to beat, and I've even seen DEATH SHIP.***1/2 out of ****

Aaron1375 In the first one it was mainly giant rats, but there were some wasps and a giant chicken too. This one, however, is just giant rats period, well giant rats and one really growing little boy. This one is about this growing boy and a scientist that is trying to help him so he accidentally creates giant killer rats...you know how it is. This movie has some kills and its moments, but I find it to be on par with the original, I just prefer some variety in my giant creature movies. Well, that is not true...I actually like "Empire of the Ants", maybe I just do not care for giant rodents. All in all a rather drab movie though it does have one rather odd turn of events in this one dream sequence that is truly bizarre. I just can't recommend this one.

m_jordan_jones This movie rules. The gore was great and the special effects were spectacular. The acting is great and the script is fantastic. The rats look scary and realistic. By far the best scene in the movie is the swimming pool massacre. Because this scene contained the most money in the entire movie is what makes it the best scene in the film. The rats looked more real than ever and the acting and special effects were great. I recommend this movie to anyone who is into the horror genre. p.s. This movie deserves a much higher rating.
