Kat Hughes THN Director Kelly Greene has clearly studied his subject matter very carefully and the result is a seamless tribute rather than a cheap knock-off... Attack of the Bat Monsters feels very authentic to the period in which the story is set. Rated: 3/5 Aug 23, 2018 Full Review Anton Bitel SciFiNow made for peanuts, [this] is a blast of affection for cinema's independent margins "with their cheap exploitation crap", and more than earns its place among bigger-budgeted but similarly-themed films like Matinee, Ed Wood, Barton Fink and Hail Caesar! Mar 9, 2018 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Its warmth and good humour make it easy to like and there's a playfulness about it that keeps it engaging. Rated: 3/5 Mar 2, 2018 Full Review Joe Bob Briggs United Press International This is a must-see for anyone interested in the period. I could complain about some anachronisms (the term "scream queen" hadn't been invented in 1959, for example), but on the whole it's pretty accurate. Rated: 3.5/4 Oct 24, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
