really and the use of stock nature documentary of swarm bat employ by the bat people be some of the most effective ever . there be shot of teem bat hang from the ceiling of cave and swarm bat fly out of cave or swirl about near the mouth of cave . that alone be enough to be unsettling represent imagine all of them swarm after you . and they do indeed swarm in what should have be a show stopper sequence that happen at about the forty minute mark and a downright inappropriately hilarious sequence where a teem swarm of bat seem to attack a police car and splattering across the windshield like bloody break egg . the problem be that this sequence happen about fifty minute too late to save the film and most of which consist of one or more people run around and scream and wave their arm about at jabber excitedly about some poor goofball who manage to get bite by a bat during his vacation . the fear be that he be come down with rabies and which do indeed suck and so their vacation be ruin and a the plot synopsis on the top of the bat people reference page do indeed point out . so here be an effective summary of the movie represent a young couple go on a romantic getaway which be ruin when the guy be bite by a bat . they bravely try to stick it out but he start rave and try to convince those around him that it a bit more involved than rabies and that he can not control himself and and they everyone should keep away . now and when some one be froth at the mouth and cover with sweat and eye boggle about like one of the cheap muppets and scream at you to get away from me and you get away from him . you do not try to give him drug and you do not try to tell him you love him and you give the guy his space and go home and and try that scenic getaway next year . but no and the people in this movie all behave like moron and insist on push the guy to his brink and and he flip out and mutate into a part man part bat type creature and and kill a bunch of non essential secondary character . nothing wrong with that and but the movie forget that it a low budget creature feature and try to be some sort of psychological study . instead of a monster movie and we get lot of people run around try to get this guy to take a chill pill and and eventually he run off into the hill look very much more human than he should have and people insist on try to chase him down and pay the expected price . the main thing wrong with the movie be that this should have happen in the first fifteen or twenty minute and thirty top and and the movie should have be about the guy after he have turn into a bat person and rather than about the journey there . it take a good eighty minute to really pick up steam on that front and with some interesting character sketch along the way involve the always entertaining michael pataki a a small town cop who lose his moral edge and and the late paul carr a a physician friend who doesn not quite get the message . the movie be dreadfully boring and about fifteen minute too long and miss the opportunity to be a nice and forgettable little creature feature about a mutant run amok like the italian horror favorite ratman and which i watch today and be sadly inspire to try this one after see . me and my bright idea and though the scene with the cop car be a howler represent too bad we couldn not have have another twenty minute of that . negative .
