🎥 Summer Slash 7: BATS (1999) Review. Lou Diamond Phillips, Halloween H20 Breakdown, Horror Trivia And More

Welcome back to Summer Slash 7, your ultimate horror movie marathon from Binge-Watchers Podcast! This episode takes flight with a deep-dive review of BATS (1999), a creature feature full of genetically engineered horror, wild kills, and a surprisingly committed performance from Lou Diamond Phillips (La Bamba, Young Guns). We talk mad scientists, cheesy 90s CGI, and why the bats in this movie deserve their own villain origin story.

But that’s not all—we also revisit Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later, where Jamie Lee Curtis returns as Laurie Strode... again. Is her PTSD legit this time or just another cash-in? We break down the Halloween franchise multiverse (yes, there are four timelines now), why H20 feels like a weird Scream spinoff, and how Josh Hartnett may have been the weakest link in the final girl’s family tree.

🧠 Trivia Time:

  • Did you know BATS was a SYFY Channel staple in the early 2000s?

  • Discover Lou Diamond’s lesser-known genre roles, from Route 666 to The Night Stalker.

  • Learn about the bat myths used (and misused) in horror cinema, with real commentary from a bat scientist.

🎮 Favorite Moments:

  • The arcade bar attack

  • Bats crawling into car engines (seriously?)

  • Those puppet bats with self-awareness?

  • A nod to horror nostalgia with Dina Meyer (Starship Troopers, Saw) and Bob Gunton (The Shawshank Redemption).

🔪 Halloween H20 Breakdown:

  • From the “Thorn Universe” to the “Coreyverse,” we untangle the Myers multiverse

  • Kevin Williamson vibes, LL Cool J’s novel-writing security guard, Michelle Williams’ early role, and that infamous dumbwaiter kill

  • Was H20 ahead of its time—or a scream queen side-quest gone wrong?

📺 Home Video Headlines:

  • RIP Michael Madsen, remembered more for Free Willy than his outlaw legacy

  • Tires renewed for Season 3 (Netflix)

  • The Bear renewed for Season 5 (FX/Hulu)

🧟 Fan Service & Staff Picks:

  • The forgotten Friday the 13th TV series with no Jason?

  • Is Saw 3D the most painful rewatch of Summer Slash?

  • And why The Creeping Flesh might save our sanity.

👎 Final Thoughts & Ratings:
We rank BATS on the cheese scale: Solid creature feature or puffed-up puppet mess? Is it binge-worthy or bat-brained?
