Product: The Devil Bat (1941)
Rating: 4.0
Best of The Low Budget Lugosi!
"All the town of Heathville loved Dr. Carruthers...."Little did the townspeople know that the good Doc(Lugosi) was up to something sinister(surely not!). He sicks bats on those that have wronged him. This is the best of the poverty-stricken films that were made featuring Lugosi. I remember I first saw this on Beta in 81 that was paired as a double feature with White Zombie! The title on the Beta Box was Killer Bats, and I recently saw The Devil Bat on AMC, but was only able to tape some of it(ran out of tape--Darn!). This film is nothing, but fun. It is campy and silly at times, but it is enjoyable. It is the same as watching Plan 9! Sheer entertainment especially if you are a Lugosi fan like me and others out there. Also check out The Corpse Vanishes.
