The sequel to the psychological horror of Willard is nothing more than a bad 70s disaster movie dressed up as horror. This time Ben befriends an obnoxiously cute little kid with a heart condition. When he is not playing in the garage with his puppets or making up songs on the harmonica he follows Ben down into the sewers. Mostly though the police and fire departments are trying to find the source of the rat plague as the citizens mass panic. There is a big finale with flame throwers. Michael Jackson coos the theme song as Ben is nursed back to health by the little kid, apparently the lone survivor of the onslaught.
