Merlin Tuttle presents a feature on the DVD about the importance of bats to our ecosystem, that is both informative and entertaining. Unfortunately "The Roost" presents bats in stereotypical fashion as evil. The worst part of all this is that the movie is minimalist entertainment, minimal lighting, minimal logic, minimal storyline, minimal character development, minimal meaningful dialog, and minimal steady camera. All this adds up to not much more than one would expect from a zombie film. The bats get another bad reputation exposure, really for no reason, as "The Roost" relies on such minimalist material that it is barely watchable. - MERK
