The Food of the Gods

The “food” mysteriously bubbles up from the ground on a remote island somewhere in British Columbia. Mr. and Mrs. Skinner (John McLiam and Ida Lupino) consider it a gift from God, and feed it to their chickens, which grow larger than humans as a result. Rats, wasps, and grubs also consume the substance, and the island becomes infested with giant vermin. One night, a swarm of giant rats kill Mr. Skinner after his car tire is punctured in the forest.

Main Characters and Plot

A professional football player named Morgan (Marjoe Gortner) is on the island for a hunting trip with his buddies when one of them is stung to death by giant wasps. After ferrying his friends back to the mainland, Morgan returns to investigate. Also thrown into the mix are Thomas and Rita (Tom Stovall and Belinda Balaski), an expecting couple; Jack Bensington (Ralph Meeker), the owner of a dog food company, who hopes to market the substance; and Bensington’s assistant Lorna (Pamela Franklin), a bacteriologist. After Morgan locates and dynamites the giant wasps’ enormous nest, he and the others become trapped in the Skinners’ farmhouse, surrounded by giant rats. Morgan’s friend Brian (Jon Cypher), Bensington, and Mrs. Skinner are killed by the rats.

The Final Showdown

Morgan blows up a nearby dam, flooding the area and drowning the rats, whose size and weight render them unable to swim. After the waters clear, the survivors pile up the bodies of the rats, spilling the jars of “F.O.T.G.” and gasoline on them before burning them. However, several of Mrs. Skinner’s jars of “F.O.T.G.” are swept away, drifting to a mainland farm. The substance is consumed by dairy cows, and in the film’s closing scene, schoolchildren are shown unwittingly drinking the tainted milk, implying that they will also experience abnormal growth.
