Episode notes
Join us this week as we talk about Frank R. Strayer's 1933 pre-code horror film, The Vampire Bat!
We'll discuss the film's production history as an attempt to capitalize on the monster movie trend sweeping Hollywood, its wonderfully dated tonal dissonance, and if the film is, gasp, even a true vampire film!?
TW: Discussions of ableism, unethical medical practices and experimentation, and racism.
