Dr. John Beck, recently married, decides to take his wife, Cathy, spelunking in Carlsbad Cavern. While there, Dr. Beck, who specializes in bats, is bitten by a fruit bat.

Dr. Beck unwittingly goes on a killing spree, catching the attention of Sergeant Ward.

A doctor's honeymoon will turn out to be truly tragic for him. One night he is bitten by a bat and suffers the consequences by transforming into a bloodthirsty vampire. Imagine a no-frills, mediocre horror movie, copied from so many others, and you have "The Bat's Bite". Negligible.
