LA REVOLUCIÓN DE LAS RATAS
Willard
Los compañeros de trabajo del inadaptado Willard (Bruce Davison) siempre se burlan de él, e intentan restarle mérito a su trabajo. Sus únicas amigas son unas ratas que cría en casa, Ben y Socrates, y todos sus amiguitos. Pero cuando sus compañeros matan a una de ellas, Willard creará un ejército de ratas que le ayudarán a buscar venganza... Pequeño filme de culto dentro del género de terror que tuvo una secuela en "Ben" (1972) y un remake de mismo título original, "Willard", en el 2003.

A young loner finds that he connects with… rats
A mama’s boy and meek misfit (Bruce Davison) befriends the rats that live behind his mother old manor and decides to use them to get back at his domineering boss (Ernest Borgnine) who usurped the business from his father. Sondra Locke is on hand as a coworker in one of her earliest roles.
"Willard" (1971) is an odd mundane character study of a timid loner with low key horror and a bit o’ black humor; it has a curious vibe that hints at the insanity of life. Incredibly, it was a minor hit at the box office, the 12th top-grossing movie of 1971, beating out notables like “Escape from the Planet of the Apes,” “Shaft,” “Play Misty for Me,” “McCabe & Mrs. Miller” and “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.” I say “incredibly” because this is a small, absurd, melancholy movie of little consequence, yet not without some interest. The main rats are cute, for instance.
Plus it’s nice to see Locke in her young, pre-Eastwood years. She dated star Davison while filming “Willard,” but not publicly since she was married to her soul mate from high school. The husband didn’t mind, however, since he was homosexual.
The movie runs 1 hour, 35 minutes, and was shot in Los Angeles.
