Baroque softcore horror in which young Bram Stoker gets abducted by amazon rat women who dance topless and lounge around in thongs and bondage attire when they're not plotting ways to rid the world of men. Bram's prospects for survival don't look good, but then the dishiest of the rat women (Maria Ford) takes a liking to him, and the "Queen of Vermin" (Adrienne Barbeau) decides she can use his writing skills to document their activities and help them kill even more men. And there are rats, which the queen dispatches from time to time by playing a wooden flute, like a horror-movie pied piper. So I guess I'd say go ahead and watch this if you like looking at wicked women in revealing costumes, but not if you have a pathological aversion to rats. Filmed on location in Russia. The executive producer was Roger Corman.
