The Bat Reviews and Ratings



  • October 29, 2009
    A creepy thriller starring Vincent Price. Could this film have been the inspiration for Freddy´s knife-fingered glove in the Nightmare On Elm Street films?
  • March 17, 2009
    Great cast, V.P. & A.M. became bbf while filming this
  • January 8, 2009
    The name is kind of nondiscript, but it's actually a pretty good movie.
  • October 17, 2008
    fairly decent old film...not as good as price's wax museum though
  • October 6, 2008
    A quality movie, it keeps you guessing throughout to who 'the bat' is. Movies like this shouldn't be forgotten.
  • August 10, 2008
    The first and last 10 minutes are great suspense, but the middle is all hens clucking through their worry. "Murder She Wrote" has sharper teeth. Vincent Price remains untouchable.
  • July 13, 2008
    This should have a remake. Make it more interesting. Just to add, this movie gave the idea for Batman.
  • June 14, 2008
    Novel in its attempt at horror; Hokey but solid acting.
  • May 31, 2008
    Very much a B movie. It was fun to watch, but it's hardly a great film. It's not even a really good film. Moorehead is excellent.
  • March 11, 2008
    Brilliant story... You'll be trying to guess who 'the Bat' is the whole way through.
  • January 30, 2008
    Slightly engaging Vincent Price film. Plot is a bit unpredictable, but overall an okay film.
  • November 1, 2007
    Not interested. I usually avoid horror movies.

  • April 25, 2007
    a pretty good who-dunnit mystery.

    Not the best in VP's body of work.

  • March 19, 2007
    Great mystery movie. Keeps you guessing and keeps you in suspense without grossing you out.
  • February 27, 2007
    A fun little whodunnit, The Bat is a gem many people overlook. Set in a creepy old mannor, it's twists and turns will keep you guessing until the very end.
  • January 16, 2007
    For it's time, it was great! It's still a great flick...just kinda outdated...BUT great atmosphere and acting by Price and Moorehead. Love the steel claws...
  • December 27, 2006

  • November 6, 2006
    My favorite Vincent Price movie!
  • September 28, 2006
    This looks really crap.
  • July 10, 2006
    Vincent Price makes another great performance here, as he always does. Acting was great, and the villain "The Bat" was actually a good idea. The story turns into a murder mystery, which leaves you guessing.
  • June 27, 2006
    note worthy price film
  • May 29, 2006
    I absolutely LOVED this one. I had low expectations, which made this film even more enjoyable for me. I'm positive that Dario Argento borrowed many of his ideas from this film, which would later be seen in his giallo films. Most notably, the costume of the antagonist. Agnes M...( read more)oorehead is also excellent in this film.
