Gory remake of the Gaston Leroux classic story, only this time, the phantom is not disfigured, but a man who was raised by rats deep under the Paris Opera House.

Standard story of the Phantom does have one major variation - The phantom is not a disfigured individual, but rather is an unwashed orphan abandoned in the sewers under the Paris Opera & raised by rats. The Phantom invokes death upon anyone who dares harm his beloved rats. In fact, The Phantom's nemesis is the chief exterminator who develops a rat-catching machine.—John Sacksteder <[email protected]>

In Paris 1877, rats save a baby from death and raise him in the underground of the Opera de Paris. This child becomes The Phantom of the Opera, a half-human half-animal breed, who falls in love with Christine Daaé, an opera singer just beginning her career. He fights for her love against the aristocratic Baron Raoul De Chagny, though Christine loves them both equally.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
