atinder Mulberry Street (2006) here in the UK for some odd reason its' called Zombie Virus on Mulberry street (2006), Even the movie titled is Mulberry street , don't get the point of that at all. (I worse think about it their NOT Zombies they are infected)I have seen this movie few times now, I really liked it, People are attacked by Rats but not killed only bitten by then. When you did get bitten by then you will turn into blood-thirsty rat creatures, , I really enjoyed this movie. I loved how transformation was slowly and you get tell how they change and the transformation was really good but there could have been a bit better. I don't think the movie was too gory, the attack can be a bit bloody at times, I did expect it to be a bit more gory The make up effect were really good in this movie, Rats attack was really good and Human-Rats were did look scary at times. Ending of this movie was really good really good but very sad in this movie, kind of the whole movie feel very depressing.Great acting from the whole cast 7 out of 10
Paul Andrews Mulberry Street is set in New York City where Rat's begin attacking people, at first in the subway but soon every Rat is attacking & biting any person within reach. The news starts to filter out to the public, through TV news reports & the presence of panic on the streets as those bitten by a Rat turn into a Rat monster who feed on human flesh & blood. The tenants of an apartment block on Mulberry Street barricade themselves inside their homes as the infection spreads & more Rat zombie people infest the city soon outnumbering normal human beings. New York is quarantined & it's survival of the fittest as any human left are left to fend for themselves while the authorities who are keen to stop an epidemic may not be as helpful as they should...Co-written & directed by Jim Mickie this zero budget zombie monster film is a depressing watch, badly written & made Mulberry Street is just plain bad. At only 80 odd minutes long the pace should be good but while watching Mulberry Street I felt like it was going on for days, the script starts off in rather unremarkable fashion with various New Yorkers seen working & going about their business while making conversation with small talk that ultimately feels natural but also dull. I can't really remember any of the character development which consists of boring everyday stuff that while it gives Mulberry Street a gritty & bland feel. While watching Mulberry Street build I couldn't help but think the makers were trying to go for a 9/11 feel, the whole terrorist attack thing as news reports slowly leak out, the way the authorities close New York & the way New Yorkers seem almost immune to it at first & I am sure Mulberry Street tries to play off the security fears of people & the climax in which the Government sent authorities are not actually there to help the common person is surely a thinly veiled attack on policy. The film does remind of Cloverfield (2008) but with Rat creatures instead of a giant monster. As a zombie film Mulberry Street sucks, there's zero explanation as to how the Rat's infect people or what the infection is & the script presents the usual group of surviving humans fighting to stay human as the odd member gets picked off every so often.The way Mulberry Street is filmed is also reminiscent of Cloverfield with the frantic & frenzied hand held shaky camera moving all over the place, often quite dark Mulberry Street isn't a particularly nice looking film. The gore is minimal, a few splashes of blood but nothing else worth mentioning. There are a couple of really bad CGI computer effects but that's par for the course it seems these days in low budget filmmaking.With a supposed budget of about $60,000 the makers didn't have any money & it show's, the whole film looks low budget. Filmed in New York. The acting is average, no-one really stood out to be fair.Mulberry Street is a film that obviously has a post 9/11 agenda that also tries to play on security fears, I can't say i was impressed at all & the actual horror film that's left is as dull as they come. I only saw it a few hours ago & I barely remember it. Known as Zombie Virus on Mulberry Street here in the UK, presumably to make it sound more interesting.
bababear I'd been curious about this because when I was small I read TO THINK THAT I SAW IT ON MULBERRY STREET, and so it had my attention from the get-go based on that.The template is, of course, NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD and, before that THE BIRDS. A group of people is trapped together while under attack from external forces.The thing is, this is a very interesting group of people played by excellent but unknown actors. This is actually a benefit: if big stars were cast, you'd have a pretty good idea what the life expectancy of various characters was.The main character is Clutch, a former boxer. He lives on Mulberry Street in New York City- and this is actually New York City, not Toronto- in a neighborhood that is undergoing massive change. Real estate developers are chasing off the locals (i.e. poor people and/or minorities) to put up luxury buildings. But what they can't get rid of is the rats. In the heat of summer they are thriving, and they become bolder and begin attacking people. When people are bitten they become monsters and attack other people, thus spreading the disease more and more quickly.Clutch's daughter, Casey, is coming home bearing the scars of war in the Persian Gulf. She gets to Manhattan, but when the subway trains stop running due to the epidemic she has to make her way to Lower Manhattan to find her father and his friends.I can't believe this movie was made on such a small budget. Wow. If there were any justice the people who worked on this movie- the actors didn't get paid, most were friends and relatives of the director and writer- would all be millionaires.
mojarradali I'm not gonna spoil it for you guys in case you wanna see it but this movie is not even a low budget movie, its like some kid used his phone camera to shoot the whole movie. The actors are really bad and so is the CGI. The directing is quit poor as well as it tends to jump from one part to another leaving the audience unsure about what is happening while the funny exaggerations of actor's powers are quit overwhelming. an example is that apparently you can smash the brain of the zombies or so called 'RAT people by normal punching. I saw this movie in hopes of having a great Zombie memory but I was very disappointed as there was not storyline just a concept that was repeating it self while the rest of the movie acting, directing, CGI and etc were very poor.I would recommend spending your time on some other movies such as Dawn of the dead 2004 remake or something like that rather than this movie.
