Plot

In the illustrious heart of Manhattan, nestled amongst its towering skyscrapers, lies the upscale Garsons Department Store, a beacon of fashion and luxury. However, beneath the store's polished exterior lurks an unseen terror: an infestation of no ordinary rats. When a customer's brush with one of these creatures leads to a harrowing case of Weil's disease, the store's determined manager, Susan Costello, finds herself pulled into an unexpected battle against a growing menace. Drawing on the expertise of New York's top exterminator, the suave and pragmatic Jack Carver, and his resourceful assistant Ty, they uncover an alarming colony of mutant rodents, teeming beneath the city's surface. As Manhattan's midtown denizens unknowingly tread on the brink of a pervasive plague, they strive to alert the health department to the gravity of the situation. However, they face an uphill struggle against Ray Jarrett, a health department official more invested in the clandestine preservation of the city's image and the safeguarding of powerful economic interests than the well-being of its citizens. As the infestation proliferates, threatening to overrun the city, the unlikely alliance of Costello and Carver must navigate the treacherous political landscape and the growing rat menace to protect their city. In this thrilling narrative, "The Rats" (2002) weaves a tale of suspense and danger, leaving viewers on edge as they journey through the shadowy underbelly of a city under siege by an enemy as insidious as it is unexpected.
