Trivia
It took nine hours to put Katrin Alexandre in all the creature make-up.

Goofs
When Bruce is running from the monster with Wendy, he pushes her in the room and keeps walking away which makes no sense, since there is no reason for the monster to follow him and not enter the room and attack Wendy.

Quotes
Howard: Randolph! They're all dead!
Randolph: [closing the Necronomicon] That's to be expected.

Alternate versions
Available in both R and unrated versions.

Its A Bat!!!

Okay this film cost me £2 in some second hand store but it was worth it just as a lesson to aspiring film makers everywhere not what to do when making a horror film. So although its completely lame we can judge it on its superb script with classic lines such as 'ITS A BAT' as a piece of black cloth moves across the screen. Or 'What did you see something Unnamable perhaps?, however nothing beats the quiet girls reply to why all the guys fancy her friend Wendy 'its her big tits isn't it' before she looks down sadly and says damn. Also featuring such 80's classic characters as sweater wearing jock guy and mysterious guy with dodgy english accent. Get a group of friends together and this film will make you laugh more than most comedies today, and then check out...The Unnamable Returns....
