While watching this classic campy Ray Dennis Steckler film I couldn't help asking myself who the hell this was made for. It starts out like a rough crime flick complete with a woman being roughed up and mugged and then turns into a silly kid-friendly BATMAN-rip-off about a half hour in. Luckily an ape shows up towards the end to make the whole thing better. Apparently the hodgepodge nature of the film has to do with Steckler starting out making a straight-forward crime movie and then getting the brilliant idea of injecting some silly crime-fighters into it after already shooting a bunch of footage. Singer Ron Haydock is in the title role and supplies a couple of tunes including his classic RAT FINK of course. A good time for trash movie weirdos!
Presented in "REGULARSCOPE Black and White" though some prints have Rat Pfink's scenes color-tinted.
