In the last line of Rats, "Ben, the two of us need look no more,"
who is Ben? Just anyone?

    It's a line from an old Michael Jackson song about a rat. The rat's name was Ben (and so was the movie the song was made for).

    that movie Willard with Crispin Glover reminded me a hell of a lot about the song Ben when i watched it.....actually, Crispin Glover COVERED the song Ben...that was a weird clip but still cool in a way (it was one of the extras on the Willard dvd)
