Night of the Lepus
Overview:
In Arizona, the rancher Cole Hillman has his lands invaded by giant mutant rabbits and he asks to the college president Elgin Clark an ecologic alternative to poison to get rid of the rabbits. Elgin contacts the researcher Roy Bennett and he goes with his wife Gerry and their daughter Amanda to the ranch. Roy collects samples and uses hormones in the rabbits expecting to sterilize the rabbits. However her daughter takes one of the injected rabbits with her but Amanda accidentally lets the animal escape. Soon the animal reproduces in an abandoned mine becoming a new breed of huge carnivorous rabbits.
