The Devil Bat

Ahmed AlbasheerNov 16, 2022

Bela Lugosi is Dr. Paul Corruthers, a bitter betrayed scientist, who makes a shaving lotion and then makes huge bats that attack anyone who dare wear says perfume. He uses these two in conjunction to get even with those that have wronged him in the past and their families. This is an entertaining, if a bit melodramatic little B-movie. It's always nice to watch the excellent Bela Lugosi act (well almost, some films that he's appeared in are absolutely dreadful, mostly the ones in the later part of his life) A lot of unintentional laughs and a generally fun feel add up to a delightful film of yesteryear. I recommend this one. My Grade: C+ DVD Extras: Intro by Bela Lugosi Jr.; Commentary by Lugosi Jr. and Ted Newsom; Image gallery; 30 minute "the Dr. Prescribed Death" radio play; Trailers for "the Human Monster", "Scared to Death"

This older film is really good and its made good too! Bela Lugosi is really good in it! his characters is much different than the other ones he has played such Dracula and Murder Legendre! Actually this is his most interesting role in My opinion! Look for the actress Suzanne Kaaren who played Gail Tempest in the classic Three Stooges short "Disorder in the Court"! The movie has very good acting from all of the other actors that were in the film! The story of the Devil Bat is quite different and original! The effect were also good!The bat sequences were cool! The real bat in the close ups was really cute! The movie has some good music and direction! If you like Bela Lugosi and older horror films like the Universal Monsters then I strongly recommended that you see The Devil Bat!!

Bela Lugosi turns in a not-so-bad performance in a not-so-bad little B-movie. Oh, yeah, it is schlocky as all heck. Mad scientist, big rubber bats attacking people wearing too much cologne, dumb comic-relief side-kick for a hero all too full of himself, the usual cops without a clue. Yes, as many clichés as can fit 70-odd minutes. But fortunately, the pacing is actually rather good - moments that look like they're about to slip into the snooze-zone somehow get saved by a fresh revelation, and we're onto the next scene.The acting is competent, the dialog is not painful, the camera and editing do what they have to do to get the job done - a workmanlike performance, but what more can be expected of a cheapie B-movie. If you enjoy B-movie thrillers, you won't be disappointed.

I diagree with the detractors of this film. Certainly the budget and therefore the special effects, were indeed limited. But, the storey is reasonabley original and the script reads well. Lagosi gives great conviction to his role and this was particularly remarkable considering the state of his career and personal life at the time. I love the scene in which he has convinced "Bob" (one of the scions of the owners of the cosmetic company that cheated Dr. Caruthers)to put on the fatal after shave lotion. Bob, wishes Dr.Caruthers a good night, Bella sighs deeply then gravely replies,"Good by Bob". He sort of regrets the unpleasant neccesity of unleashing one his giant creations to hunt down the innocent Bob. The other evening was watching bats flitting around at dusk. Naturely I thought emmediatley of old Doc Caruthers. Any film that leaves such an impression must be pretty good.

This a good film! Good plot, and acted well by the entire cast. "The Devil Bat" is one of those films I have found myself watching several times. It's that good. Perhaps other reviewers are expecting "Gone With The Wind", which this certainly is not. However, despite coming from one of the "poverty row" studios, this is a film worth watching. "The Devil Bat" a must see for all Bela Lugosi fans!

I always watch this Lugosi classic with affection, and I don't agree with its detractors. Here's another bit of harmless detective drama, unusual in the fact that the law teams up with reporters to solve a mystery (imagine that today). Inexpensively made to be sure, and with a sound track that turned up in later thrillers, "Devil Bat" is subtle humor mixed with the obvious. Is there any doubt as to the outcome? Dave O'Brien and Donald Kerr are delightful as the reporter-photographer team, respectively, and the casting is on the money. Except the big mystery for me is that the coroner shows up in the credits but not in the film! Go figure.

If you like B-Movie cheese...this film is for you! I love this flick. Sure it's not Citizen Kane. But it never said it was. Bela is excellent. He always took his roles so serious. And that's why he's so good in these types of goofball films. If your a fan of DVD Extras, you will love this one. The commentary features Bela Lugosi, Jr. And Numerous Lugosi movie trailers. Well worth checking out! 5 out of 5 stars. GOOD STUFF!!
