Promising Concept, Weak Execution

The first fifteen to twenty minutes of this film were really promising, I enjoyed the fairytale-like explanation of all the different type of rats in the introductory sequence, for instance, because it was using the structure of a fable to represent the story's characters.But the writing did not live up to the expectations established in the beginning. The story felt too generic, with the usual set of characters from the cool kids to the nerds.As a horror film from a small film studio with what must have been a small budget, 'Black Rat' is not what I consider horrible by any means. It just falls short of the standards which its concept and interesting introduction establish. It end up being mediocre when it could have been so much better with more experienced writers.

Alright watch for a low budget student film like flick

This is a Japanese slasher film that doesn't focus in on the blood and gore but the twist and structure of the story. It gives quite a lot of flashback in order to get all the pieces together. I seen a lot of Asian films so this movie isn't anything new, besides the few twists which I didn't expect. For viewers that isn't use to Asian cinema this one might come off as a unique film or even a cult film. Personally for the low budget and low resources they had, this movie is actually alright. It's not really a thought-provoking movie either and isn't all that clever. But again for a low budget student film like flick, it's a alright watch.5/10
