Synopsis

Horror comes home to Roost. It’s Halloween. Four friends are on the way to a wedding when their car breaks down on a dark lonely country highway. A nearby abandoned farmhouse seems to be their only choice of sanctuary.

But walking towards the flickering porch light and strangely vacant premises, they hear ominous rustling sounds. The disturbing noises appear to be coming from a creepy old barn. Too late they make the fatal error of going to investigate.

For the cavernous barn contains an unimaginable terror - a swarm of bloodthirsty vampire bats waiting to turn their dread-filled victims into murderously rabid zombies.

And soon there’s no hiding place from the winged, fanged horror.

The Roost is about vampire bats that take over a farm and a bunch of teenagers over a single night. The bats are few but very smart and they seem to get past all the flailing arms and such. Their bite turns the people into blood thirsty zombie vampires who then attack more people who then attack more people. The director spent a great deal of time setting up each scene using various camera angles almost seemed like he was trying to imitate Hitchcock. More reminiscent of Friday the 13th though, as the angles allowed you to anticipate where the surprise was going to originate. They added a host for the movie that made it seem more like a late fright night TV show.
