Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit movie
Victor first meets up with the heroes Wallace and Gromit at Lady Tottington's home, Tottington Hall. The duo, who run a thriving pest control business called "Anti-Pesto," are on hand to help Lady Tottington rid her estate of rabbits. Quartermaine is disinclined to like the pest-hunting pair almost immediately, as his Quiff toupee is sucked up by the Bun-Vac 6000, Wallace's bunny-catching contraption. He is further disgruntled when it becomes clear that Lady Tottington seems to Enjoy time with Wallace, which Quartermaine claims that Wallace and Gromit are doing their job half done, and wanted to know that what they will do with all the rabbits.
Meanwhile, to the horror of the townsfolk — avid vegetable gardeners, a giant rabbit has taken to ravaging local gardens under cover of night. At the town meeting, Victor and Philip appeared, and tells everyone that the job can be finished by himself, until Lady Tottington interrupts, which she decided to give Wallace and Gromit a second chance. Quartermaine is unfazed and argues against this act, until Wallace impresses the townspeople with his idea of capturing such a big rabbit "With a big trap". When Quartermaine discovers that Lady Tottington likes Wallace, he decided to punish him for tresspassing to his territory of impressing Tottington.
But while hunting the creature in the forest, Quartermaine witnesses the moonlit transformation of Wallace himself from a human to a were-rabbit. Now with a better idea of what he's up against, Victor goes to the reverend of the local church, who informs him that the only way to kill the were-rabbit is with golden bullets. Heading for Wallace and Gromit's house, Quartermaine spots and shoots what he believes to be were-rabbit. As it turns out, however, what he thought was the beast was in fact the loyal Gromit in disguise. Victor promptly locks up the (unharmed) pooch and sets off to continue the hunt.
At the Giant Vegetable Competition, an annual event held at Tottington Hall, the townsfolk have heard the shot fired by Quartermaine. Assuming the were-rabbit has been killed, they uniformly rejoice. But when Victor arrives, still in hot pursuit of the beast, he reveals to PC Macintosh that the were-rabbit isn't dead yet. Macintosh in turn, accidentally shouts the news to Quartermaine, which causes the crowd to Horrified & stare at both of them, and begin screaming, leading Quartermaine, rashly, to use the second of his three precious golden bullets to shut the crowd up.
Down to the final bullet, Quartermaine manages to regain a measure of composure. He instructs a member of the crowd to use one of the vegetables as bait. But when Gromit — who has escaped from his cage — arrives on the scene in the Anti-Pesto van, general panic ensues and the last shot is fired.
Shotless now, Quartermaine grabs an antique musket and fireworks, and then attempts to break the carrot off the official Giant Vegetable Competition golden trophy, but Lady Tottington prevents him from getting the trophy. Chasing the were-rabbit up to Lady Tottington's rooftop greenhouse, Quartermaine confronts the creature and tells Lady Tottington that he knows that Wallace is the were-rabbit. Meanwhile, his dog, Phillip, confronts Gromit by stealing a plane from a carnival ride. Victor Quartermaine shoots at the were-rabbit, and it looks like the furry beast is done for — until Gromit, who has hijacked a small plane from a carnival ride, takes the shot for his old friend. The were-rabbit/Wallace in turn throws himself to the ground to cushion Gromit's crash. In the end of the film, however, Quartermaine is chased off by the crowd, including his own dog, after he is forced into donning the lady were-rabbit costume.
Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit video game
Victor Quartemaine and his dog Phillip appears as villains. In the game, they stole the Mind Manipulation-O-Matic valves, so that Hutch and the were-rabbit cannot return to normal. Also, Victor plans to use the valves, so that normal creatures will transform into were-creatures.
