File this in the you-just-can't-make-this-up category (and leave it to e.tv to show it).
Sadly
I kid you not. My breath went away today as a TV critic when I dutifully went over the e.tv schedule as I do hundreds of them a day. And there it was. Bats. Human Harvest.
This terrible, terrible schlockfest must be/definitely is so baaaad that I absolutely, wholeheartedly and truly want to recommend it as a simply must-watch movie of the week.
If e.tv buys and shows utter trash without so much as, uhm, batting an eyelid, who are we as picky viewers not to absolutely enjoy it? Bats Human Harvest sees David Chokachi battling bats in the forest. But not ordinary bats, people. Genetically altered, enhanced bats.
This downmarket trash has no Pamela battling bats with 'em boobies (it would just be too powerful) but nevermind - it will surely still be awesome.
Set that PVR or watch it live and make appointment, must-see television of Bats: Human Harvest when e.tv shows this hilariously bad made-for-TV movie from 2007 on Tuesday 4 September at 22:30.
Come on, if you've watched that awful Anaconda 3: The Offspring and the snake babies on e.tv, you know you're going to watch yourself some bats!
Get the friends over, make a bat party of it, and lets lift those e.tv viewership who dutifully doles out terrible television when it comes to movies. Bats: Human Harvest is so bad, it will actually do what good television is supposed to: provide an hour and a half of unbelievable entertainment.
After that we can go back to that golden over-and-over-and-over shown movie classic, that e.tv staple for so many years and years. What has happened to that often repeated Fanny by Gaslight I wonder ...
