A nice surprise for Bat Lovers scary not cheesy

If you are looking for a well done movie normally found on cable look no further. This movie was made for Haloween and they didn't have the biggest budget, AND was well written and acted. There where several minimal choosy scary scenes. There was fairly, thought out and great scenes that carried this movie in a singular directions This was more psychologically scary with minimal bloody cheap shot scenes, one quickly knows the major cause and evil are man drinking blood suckers i.e. the vampire bats, hence the movie name. The surprise are the few human blood suckers who dump things in the water they shouldn't! Sorry I can not tell you more just see the movie it is entertaining. Not a Oscar winner but worth your time. Anyway I can't remember any Oscar nominated scary movie let alone a winner. Enjoy, Brian bcpmd
