About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Thriller
- Description: A mysterious master criminal known as The Bat witnesses a midnight bank heist and trails the robber to a dark and spooky mansion. Once there, The Bat terrorizes the inhabitants of the estate to get his hands on the stolen money in this stylized horror-comedy. -THE BAT is one of the best and most enjoyable examples of the popular old dark house genre. A stylish combination of laughs and thrills, Mary Roberts Rinehart's classic had thrilled audiences on stage before it came to the screen in 1926. Director Roland West was a master visual stylist with a penchant for the macabre. In THE BAT he expertly manipulated light and shadow, and assembled a top-notch production crew that included expert art direction by William Cameron Menzies, and stunning photography by Arthur Edeson and Gregg Toland. The cast, which includes Louise Fazenda, Jack Pickford, Jewel Carmen and Arthur Housman, deftly support the ominous mood while providing plenty of amusement. A hit when it opened, the film was also influential, as the masked figure of the master criminal 'The Bat' had a profound effect on the young Bob Kane, who cited this film and it's sound remake as one of his main inspirations for the creation of Batman. - THE BAT is presented in a new 2K digital restoration by Undercrank Productions from 35mm film elements preserved by UCLA Film & Television Archive, and features a new musical score by Ben Model. Also included are the 1926 comedy two-reeler A FRATERNITY MIXUP, and a short documentary on the life and career of director Roland West. - DVD is NTSC, Region-free.
