When this came out a few years ago I really thought it would be funny to go see it, like in the theater, ya know? Now I really wish I did. "But why would you do such a thing?" to the reply, "Because I'm a scientist. That's what I do!" This is pure cheese. Genetically altered bats attack a small town. The evil scientist who created them thinks that he can control them and is, of course, mauled to death by his own creation. Plus it's got Lou Diamond! Yessss! Lalalalala BAMBA!
Clay-mation bats rock. I think I almost choked to death on a cherry coke while whitnessing one of the more sophisticated rubber bats strut its way over to a very trapped Richie Valens. I smile just thinking about it.
So it should have been straight-to-video but, egh, who cares? So what if the plot is a complete no-brainer? This definatly delivers the cheese and, at the same time, has a few familiar faces displaying their theatrical worst. It's so much fun to watch I almost don't feel sorry for their careers.
