Another retroactive fandom moment that occurred while I was watching Spider-Man:

Dr Strom: *explains that the, uh, soldier-making strength stuff (the only word I can think of for fictional scary substances right now is Re-Agent; DAMN YOU HERBERT WEST!) had a bad effect on a batch of lab rats, ultimately causing "aggression, homicidal tendencies, and insanity."

Usually this is the part where I ask when sanity tests for lab rats were developed, but time I had the following epiphany:

"Oh my god! *points at screen* YOU MADE BEN!!"

. . . haha. I hadn't thought of that. That would be big scary rat Ben from Willard.

Okay, for a sec I thought you mean Ben Reilly, and I waslike... "WHAT DID I MISS?! And what does he have to do with insane lab rats?!"

And I've never seen Willard. It looks very...scary.

Heeheehee. I forget how many Bens there are.

As for Willard, it's not really scary. Well, it might be if you're afraid of rats. But mostly it's an interesting psychological study of this guy whose life sucks. And he happens to develop relationships with rats that are more complicated and intense than those with the humans he knows. It's fabulous movie in all aspects, and you should try it.

Im always suprised by how easily "Re-Agent" can be slipped into casual conversation... Im glad you got to see ReAnimator btw! lol
