I remember seeing this on HBO when I was about 8 or 9 years old and it scared the living crap out of me. I was terrified of rats for years after watching this movie. The film does drag in the middle big time and it would have made an awesome episode of Tales from the Crpyt.

Peter Weller is terrorized by a giant rat that has movied into his new place while the wife is away. He tries to capture the monster but he eventually must play by it's rules and get mean. This is worth watching because it gives a desperate feel of man vs.

beast like in Jaws.
