The Bat

Actors: Vincent Price, Agnes Moorehead, Gavin Gordon, John Sutton, Lenita Lane
Rating: 1 out of 10, The latest in my journey through 100 bad sci fi films wasn’t a sci film at all so I’m not sure how it ended up in this collection. It was a murder mystery but since sci veteran Vincent Price was involved I guess they thought they could sneak it by us. It also had Agnes Moorhead which caused me some severe Bewitched flashbacks whenever she spoke. A renowned author is summering in a remote mansion outside a small town where all the leading citizens are either embezzling or murdering each other and some wierdo is running around wearing a mask and a set of claws. Stilted dialogue and a preposterous plot dragged down the game acting as this wends to a very predictable surprise ending.

MVP: Vincent as the not so good doctor
