Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the name of the biggest rat?

Answer: Big Ben

At first Willard used Socrates to communicate with his rat-minions. Then Socrates was killed by Willard's boss, and Willard took Big Ben under his wing to bring misery upon his boss.

2. Who protrayed Willard?

Answer: Crispin Glover

Crispin Glover portrayed the psychotic Willard while John Papsidera was the one who cast him. Benjamin Wespike, to the best of my knowledge, does not exist, and Leonardo DiCaprio wasn't involved with the film.

3. Socrates doesn't want Willard to hurt Ben.

Answer: True

Socrates is a peace-loving rat apparently.

4. At one point in the movie, Willard lures in a bunch of his rats with food. After they are all lured into a big group he does what to the rats?

Answer: gases them

This is after he abandons Ben and is trying to get rid of the rats.

5. Does Willard ever introduce his mother and Socrates during the movie?

Answer: Yes

At his mother's funeral he introduces Socrates to his dead mother. He is able to do this without interference because he is the only one who went to the funeral.

6. What is the name of the cat that Ben orders the rats to kill?

Answer: Scully

Pikachu is a Pokemon from that popular anime series "Pokemon". Seraph is a mysterious figure from "The Matrix Reloaded" and "The Matrix Revolutions". Claire is a playable character from "Resident Evil 2", "Resident Evil Code: Veronica", and "Resident Evil Code: Veronica X". Scully is not just the cat's name, it is also the name of a main character from the "X-Files" TV series and movie (something I thought was interesting).

7. What does Willard's mother rename him at the beginning of the movie?

Answer: Clark

Ben and Socrates are the names of the main rats and Willard is Willard's normal name. Clark is also the name of Superman. Willard's mother wanted to rename him because she thought Willard was a weak name.

8. What is the name of the song that plays while Ben and the rats chase the cat through the house?

Answer: Ben

Michael Jackson sings this song. The three incorrect answers are actually lyrics of the song. You can find the music video for "Ben" at Yahoo! Movies (Crispin Glover's version which has the same lyrics).

9. Ben can chew through wood.

Answer: True

The first time we see him do this is when Willard takes a bunch of rats to his boss' house to pop his tires. Ben couldn't fit under the garage door, so he chewed apart enough of the wood to allow him some room. Later on in the movie he gets through wire, loose change, duct tape, and metal at the same time. Ben has to do this because Willard used all of those items to stuff a hole in the wall of his closet.

10. Does Willard lose control of his rats?

Answer: Yes

Willard abandons Ben and the others after making them kill his boss. He also lures some with food and then gases them. Ben doesn't think kindly of this and sends all his rats to kill Willard, leading to a stunning climax. Have a nice day.
