Well acted, but handled with all the flair of a TV movie.

Plays like a weirdly wicked TV movie, with lots of funny old ladies and oddly Disney touches early on. Davison is quite devout and good (and certainly at ease with vermin!) and I don't think I've never seen Ernie Borgnine as good in a role. Indeed, the whole cast did quite a job. The cat sequence was most amusing. Had to crack up at the elevator thing for Lancaster on the stairs (presumably a sly wink in the direction of Witness For the Prosecution).

Considerably better than the remake. Just like the 2003 re-imagining, Willard is a viscerally driven movie. Likewise, it fails at everything else it tries to do.

Modest, rather unusual suspenser which builds well after a slow start; only horrifying to people who can't stand rats.

This kinda brings a whole new light to the Dr. Doolittle thing...or whatever.

I'm surprised this movie is well-remembered enough for anyone to have thought of remaking it. I like Bruce Davison's performance (he's always good), but this movie is basically silly
