Internet, why must you schedule multiple streaming things on a Snday during Monsterdon time? I will have to choose... But I know Bat People is bad.

Did someone just whisper/mumble "no no, me kitten flithy" over shots of bats squeaking?

THE Bat People, accept no substitutes.
Starring dime store Anthony Perkins.

Oh the real star of the movie. The make up effects.

Come on movie. Do something to get my attention. I have Chargeman Ken being insane on my second monitor.
Awww a baby bat~~ He's gonna steal that pic-a-nic basket.

Oh boy. More driving in a 70s movie. Yippie.

OH NO! Bat puppet on a string! It's in her hair!

Hooray the Rabies content warning is in full effect.

"You're not doctors. You're children!"
Charlie Brown is right.

The doctor has a solarium? I guess that almost makes sense since this is a ski resort doctor, but damn these folks rich.

Is that a shot of a woman wearing bats as a necklace?

SO the horror is that his hands are getting fat? . . . like bat's fat fingers? what?

Long car drives.
Wood paneled rooms.
How long until we get a long scene in a sheriff's office?
THE 70S!

He wants to stay in the hospital.
But he equally wants to jump out windows and run away.
Um maybe yall should send him to a mental hospital?

The gas station isn't going to explode? Omg... I'm afraid i have to admit it but...
Laserblast was a better movie.

And now a drunk hobo? Is this the most 70s movie?

We have arrived at the sheriff's... candle lit dinner for two table?
Is he hitting on this married woman? What?

Movie what even are you about? I don't like anyone or the plot. We were promised Bat PEOPLE. Plural. Not one man going crazy and a broken marriage.

Ya know cave exploration is a kind of rockclimbing. We do nothing but rockclimbing movies these days. All month even.

Dr Batboy needs help. He thinks he's in Psycho, but he's in this pile of guano instead.

Okay so did he really turn into a Bat People or are her orgasm screams just really weird?

How is there ten minutes left? We are exactly where we were ten minutes ago and that felt like it was 5 minutes after the movie should have ended.

WE HAVE FINALLY SEEN A BAT PEOPLE! . . . and I don't care. Eww so much drool.

Okay so he could always hear bats. So he was always a bat person. he just went into this cave and got rabies. What are the chances?

How is sexual assault/police brutality sheriff still alive?
Oh she hears things now to. A second bat person has hit the screen!

The Birds but The Bats. Wait wasn't that also a movie?

FUCK YEAH! BITE HIS ASS MY LITTLE WINGED FRIENDS!

Did Stan make the -- why the fuck did that bat just screech like a Pteradon? -- Did Stan also make the little flapping bat puppets?

Aww I love the little bat on his trigger hand happily nibbling away. He's like a Critter with wings.

THE END.
It's over.
The last 5 minutes of mild craziness were not worth the other boring 90 minutes.

strangefour with the Pleiades

On a technical moving making sense, not our worse movie. But it's so boring when it';s not giving me the willies thinking about rabies or hating basically all of the cast.

I would must rather rewatch Laserblast. That's good bad stupid cheese.

@strangefour At least Laserblast had the turtle aliens. We got like a full thirty seconds of bat monster here.

@CactuarJoe Or we could have rewatched that Gargoyles movie. That was alot of caves and a hundred times more make up effects. And not creepy sheriff.

@CactuarJoe That's all the time Stan Winston had available.He has TWO films and FIVE TV series credited to him in 1974. The man was BUSY. #monsterdon @strangefour

@strangefour Oh, wow. I think Laserblast was on a whole different level.

It was a lower level.

Much lower.

Lower even than that.

Go lower.

There...no, lower.

@ramsey Cute little shellless turtle men. Out bounty hunting and fucking up their job. So cute. So incompetent.

@diazona @ramsey Oh wow yeah. That is so many Monsterdons. Sitting there wishing you had something to drink at the end of another "winner."
