1.0 out of 5 stars Frightless, Unorignal, and Uninspiring, November 26, 1999
By Pinsoneault (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bats (1999) [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This movie was a severe dissapointment, and probably the worst I have seen. Not only was it a rip-off of "Birds", it lacked a plot, and contained poor dialogue. Do not buy this movie!

5.0 out of 5 stars i'm shocked at how low the movie is rated from other reviews, September 10, 2005
By Ronnie Clay "R.C." (Winnsboro, Louisiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bats (1999) [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is fun, fun film that's worth having fun with it despite many of the reviews to the contrary. I enjoyed the cheesy aspect of this film, it's almost classic watching Lou Diamond Philips shoot bats. It's in vein of They Live and movies of fun campy nature. Don't let the low rating fool you see it to enjoy it.

1.0 out of 5 stars HORRIBLE!, March 8, 2000
By eileen f. (Norwood, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bats (1999) [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Thank god i didn't spend $8 but only $3 on a rental for this flop! The acting was so awful, what motivation did these actors have? and what happened to Lou Diamond? he was so good in La Bamba and now he is just losing the acting ability. The rest of the acting was down right terrible. The movie did have my attention for the bloody killing scenes but after about 45 minutes i totally lost interest. i didn't care about any of the characters as they were not interesting and if a bat did attack them, who really cared? and the Bats! what a hoot! they looked so fake. and even some of the effects for the attacked victims were bad..get a load of the dummies! don't bother with this if you really like horror movies or campy movies -- this wasn't even funny enough to be camp. STAy away from this one at the video store or you will regret it! trust me!

5.0 out of 5 stars A cult classic from the late 90's? Yup. It is.

2.0 out of 5 stars They drop the ball on this film. It could be so much more.
Some B films are great and they have a cult following, but this B film will never have a cult following in latter years to come, because this film lacks a good plot. Read more
