Notes et avis

Excellent performance by Crispin Glover. This black comedy will have you laughing for all the wrong reasons in a good way. A great metaphor for those plagued by loneliness who find comfort in animals (in this case, rats), and how it can go wrong when trouble is added to the mix, in the form of cat-sized rat named Ben. A recommended watch for those who enjoy black comedies with a twisted story and ending.

I never had the chance to see all of the original version, but this one is almost as good. I can't wait to see if they remake Ben. The sequel the the original Willard. It was the movie that helped me to fall in love with rats as pets.

Haven't seen this before. But tbh it looks funny/scary. I've seen the trailer though, and I liked the part when Willard said “ they'll do anything I tell them. ” lmao. So yeah I really want to watch this movie.
