The Bat

I'm watching a collection of classic horror movies and next up is The Bat starring Vincent Price.

There's a million dollars hidden somewhere in a large mansion and there's a killer on the hunt. He claws at your throat and sends bats to bite you.

Vincent Price is the good doctor who tries to help the innocent women in this big house. But is he really the killer?

You have a number of suspects including the doctor, the detective, the butler, and perhaps even one of the girls.

The evidence begins to mount against Vincent Price from the very beginning as he kills the bank man who tells him about the money.

The clues stack up but you won't know until the very end.

The Last Man on Earth

The Last Man on Earth is the original I am Legend.

Starring Vincent Price as Dr Robert Morgan, this film shows what happens when an airborne disease turns everyone into vampires.

Like every other early zombie movie, these vampires are very slow and can be defeated by shoving them aside.

Dr Morgan locks himself in his house at night, covering his doors with garlic and mirrors. He carves wooden stakes to drive into the vampires whenever he comes across one.

Every night, there is one particular vampire who calls for Morgan again and again. This is his lab partner.

After being alone for many months, Dr Morgan stumbles across a woman who seems to be fine. He brings her into his house to discover there is a clan of humans who have discovered a way to keep the vampire disease from taking them over.

This movie ends with these vampire/human hybrids chasing Dr Morgan down and killing him.
