Hold on to Your Nuts: Flesh-Eating ‘Squirrels’ Are on the Loose (VIDEO)

Those of you who spend time worrying about gun violence and global warming are about to feel pretty stupid. It turns out the real threat to humanity comes from flesh-eating squirrels. Who knew? Timur Bekmambetov. That's who knew.

The Russian producer/writer/director's latest film is a cautionary tale about what can happen when man does not respect nature. Apparently, flesh-eating squirrels are what can happen. The thought of rising coastlines didn't move me to start recycling, but the thought of killer rodents eating off my genitals is more compelling.

And for those of you who don't think this is a very plausible story, I suggest you start reading the news. The threat is real!
