I recently watched the film and was impressed with the performances. The acting was strong, and the video quality was excellent. The actor who played the sheriff delivered a standout performance. While the story wasn't particularly groundbreaking, it was still believable and engaging.

For those who may be watching this film for the first time, please note that "vampire" bats which are very small, very, very rarely bite humans, they feed primarily on domestic livestock, wild mammals and birds but their bite usually goes unnoticed by the animal, they certainly don't kill it. This said, they can spread rabies if the bat is itself infected. People who care for bats who are injured must be vaccinated against rabies, which is just a safeguard for the great majority don't carry the disease. So if one day, you were to come across a bat which is injured, first of all, please don't kill it, don't pick it up, and call a rescue centre. Remain close to the bat till a rescuer arrives to protect it from eventual attacks from other animals. Thank you.

Bats are SO cool. Kept a little brown bat for most of one Summer, until her wing healed. Interesting. They do immeasurable good. Kept bat boxes and never needed a bug zapper or chemical pesticides for my garden. Their guano made astonishingly rich fertilizer. My flowers were huge, even during the drought of 2002. All because of bats. Love em.

Contrary to most of the comments, I enjoyed this movie. However I did read the book back in 1977 by Martin Cruz Smith that this movie is based on. Really enjoyed the book and have been looking for this movie since. The book explains the American Indian culture which I found interesting. Thank you for sharing this movie with us.

I saw this on a Saturday afternoon as a 5 year old in the early 80s and it required me to have counseling where the psychologist tried to convince me that while vampire bats exist, they were in S America and no threat to me. The fact that they actually existed was too much for my little pea brain to handle because that tidbit did nothing to help the fact that I was so scared I wouldn’t sleep in my room anymore. For *years*. To this day I still sleep with my ears and neck covered! Gd nightwing! Aaaaahhhhhh

I'm pretty sure this is from a book by a guy named Martin Cruz Smith. I guess he's some kinda minority with a name like that. Don't matter to me, but he's an exceptional writer. He wrote several books about a detective in Moscow and they are some of the best books I've ever read. If you really want to read a fantastic novel read his book called, Rose. It's awesome.

We viewers greatly appreciate the time and effort you have invested in posting this movie. However, too much kissing and smooching. It takes up unnecessary time, and I’m sure many of the viewers can do without it. ENORMOUS and superfluous amount of acting, constant script back and forth, endless dialogue, chit chat, and incessant empty conversation throughout most of the movie.

@hristohristov6488 A baby that presents shoulder first or bottom first (breech) foot or feet first (footling) can become lodged in the birth canal, causing serious injuries or death to both mother and child. Surgical intervention is often necessary in these situations. Since you were so woefully wrong about the possible loss of a baby due to positioning maybe you are wrong about the smooching too.
