A campy creature-feature horror-comedy that leans heavily into absurdist humor and B-movie charm while delivering creature-driven kills and survival thrills.

Ranger Brody, with the help of his nephew and niece, is preparing to open the brand-new campground for the season. Everything is in order and the camp seems peaceful until a giant rat, mutated from multiple dumping of toxic wastes, begins killing the campers and rangers.
