Most exciting scene in the movie

I wouldn't be in the house in the first place. If I knew a dude with no face had been terrorizing the place a year before, and one night a dude with no face came to the house, I'd be out of there as soon as possible! And this attack happened like, what, one or two nights since their first attack (I haven't seen it in a while).
And I have heard noises and gone looking, but I always took some sort of a weapon with me (i.e. baseball bat). That's when I didn't know that a prowler was on the loose! If I knew, and I
had
to go up the stairs, I think I'd at least get Cornelia and her gun to come with me!
In the tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki room! -

While that may be a good approach to take, anyone who's seen the movie probably recalls this segment when Dale and Judy heard the pounding on the floor above them:
Judy: Shall we call Miss Van Gorder?
Dale: She'll hear it, how can she help but hear it? Besides, we don't want her to think we're a couple of hysterical women.
I don't know, maybe today you have less of a problem with being seen as hystericalback then characters, including women in the movies it seems, were given something of a calm manner to them. They weren't too fond of being seen as crazy because if someone thought you were just plain crazy, they wouldn't take you as seriously. -

Actually, after watching this picture several times, I believe there were not one, but two Bats. And they were both killed by end of the film.
To me one of the most exiting scenes is early on, when the bat is let loose into the bedroom and bites Lizzie. -

Sure, that's pretty clear. Anderson is the sociopath "Bat" who has been killing women since the previous year, while Welles is the copycat "Bat" looking for the million dollars. Note the tense, Mexican standoff between the two of them all the cryptic innuendo whenever they encounter each other.
Anderson, of course, usurps Welles in searching for the million when he discovers Welles' theory about its being hidden somewhere in the house. That's why Anderson kills Welles (and why Welles arrives unsucessfully prepared to encounter him and kill Anderson first.) -

I don't know that that's the case though. Unless Anderson and Welles both knew what the other was doing and were working together in the beginning which I very highly doubt because it just does not seem likely Anderson would go along with that, how could Wells have known what the Bat looked like to go around the house masquarading as him in an exact costume to what Anderson wore?
