It’s a super low-budget reworking of a zombie idea by two film students that is about plague carrying rats that infect the city and turn people into ravenous were-rats that’s also a commentary of gentrification. Sound good? What if I told you those two students were Jim Mickle and Nick Damici, and the resulting debut, Mulberry Street, is not only a visceral and frightening film, but evokes the same kind of social horror that was an earmark of Romero, and also a great showcase for the work the pair would move onto later like Stakeland, We Are What We Are, and Cold in July?

Because yeah…I’m saying that.
