Here's something I meant to post here, a review of the 2003 remake of Willard, which was based on a novel titled The Ratman's Notebooks. It all seems to have been part of a minor wave in the horror genre. Anyone here remember the movies or the books?

As posted, I have heard Michael Jackson's song, "Ben",
but I was not aware of its relation to that genre.
("Ben" is the sequel.)

I only saw the '70 "Willard" within the last couple of years. It sounds like the remake captures what I would consider the most important part of the film: at some point one should realize that even if the killer rats do all that killer rats are capable of, that won't solve Willard's problems. There is no path to a happy ending from here.

With Crispin Glover as the lead actor, happy endings are very rare.

The song was featured briefly in the Willard remake, when the rats attack a cat.
