A pretty interesting low-budget pre-code horror film which is retroactively most notable for it’s unique cast of actors known for their work in more famous classic horror films such as Dracula, Frankenstein, The Old Dark House, and many more.

Synopsis:
When corpses drained of blood begin to show up in a European village, vampirism is suspected to be responsible.

Cast: Lionel Atwill, Fay Wray, Melvyn Douglas & Dwight Frye.
Trivia:
Made as a “quickie” horror film, The Vampire Bat stars Fay Wray and Lionel Atwill who starred together in Doctor X the year before, and Mystery of the Wax Museum which was still in post production while this film was made. Dwight Frye was similarly well known for his horror work, having played Renfield in Dracula and Fritz the hunchback in Frankenstein. Melvyn Douglas had starred in The Old Dark House and Robert Frazer in White Zombie. The film was also predominantly shot on sets left over from Frankenstein and The Old Dark House.
