The Bat, a master criminal who dares the police to catch him, has been terrifying the city. A bank is robbed, and the home of the bank president becomes the center of mysterious happenings. Amidst thrills, chills and laughs, the stolen money is discovered, and the Bat's secret identity is revealed! Starring Chester Morris of the Boston Blackie films and Una Merkel (Road to Zanzibar, The Bank Dick) • Includes the two versions shot simultaneously--the spectacular widescreen Magnifilm version, an early experimental 65mm format, and the full-frame version.
Editor's Note
A sequel to 1926's THE BAT with people looking for loot stashed in a scary mansion inhabited by a masked villain. Highly stylistic, especially for its time, featuring several atmospheric touches of brilliance. This nail-biter is based on the light mystery novel and play of Avery Hopwood and Mary Roberts Rinehart.
