The Bat People

After the sun has set and the night wind has died comes the hour of The Bat People! In director Jerry Jameson’s ridiculously entertaining slice of drive-in delirium, a scientist on his honeymoon gets bitten by a rabid bat while studying a cave-dwelling colony in Carlsbad Cavern. As his new marriage begins to collapse, his transformation into a half human monstrosity sends him into the night in search for blood. Featuring some of the earliest work from legendary effects magician Stan Winston!

Howard S. Berger discusses director Jerry Jameson on the New Beverly blog.
