One of the "8 Movies to Die For" series from Horrorfest. (Not sure which year, I'm guessing this is the new batch.)
This is an indy, so I'll cut it a bit more slack.
Mulberry St. is about how a small group of folks content with an outbreak similar to a zombie plague. This plague is different in that its more about lycanthropy. Put simply, people turn into rats when bitten. Not small rats, but humans with rat noses. (It's not as bad as it sounds.)
Most of the movie flows pretty. It's interesting in that it feels like you're only watching the outbreak portion of any zombie movie. All the focus is on a few characters and their efforts to survive.
The story really isn't that bad and there's actually decent characterization. Also, The acting is generally better than most indy films.
This is actually not a terrible film. Don't get me wrong, this won't be something you'll run out and buy, but if you're a horror fan, it's worth a rental.
6 out of 10.
