De Amerikaanse korporaal King is de strateeg van de zwarte markt-activiteiten in het Japanse krijgsgevangenenkamp Changi bij Singapore. Wanneer hij besluit knaagdieren te fokken om als voedsel te dienen voor medegevangenen wordt hij King Rat genoemd.
Nee, helaas is King Rat nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
