A lot of guano, 28 December 2000
1/10
Author: Delicia Wetlove from Boston, MA

"Bats" is a not a movie to be taken lightly. It should be firmly grasped by the throat and throttled. I like horror & SF movies a lot and can usually find something entertaining about them even if it's badly done. Hell, really bad SF & horror movies are very entertaining in spite of themselves! But I found nothing amusing about this dull cliche-ridden film.
