Review of Frogs! (1991) by Lovro H — 21 Aug 2015
I'm not really sure why I watched this, but I am so glad I did! I've never seen a horror movie before with frogs, so might as well give it a shot. Now, there are a lot of frogs in this movie, and I really do mean a lot, but they don't kill anybody until the last minute of the film.
.. Misleading... You know you're doing something wrong when you have a movie called Frogs, but all of the kills are by other creatures and not frogs. On the up-side, we get a lot of close-ups of frogs! Yes! This movie would make for a great drinking game! Whenever there is a close-up of a frog, you take a drink.
I honestly could not keep a straight face watching this movie. It tries so hard to be serious in tone and acting, but it just ends up even more ridiculous! There are a few scary kills, though. The effects are okay for the year, I guess.
But, it aged really bad! The acting is good, suprisingly. The characters are all really weird and a bit off. Especially the old man Jason and Iris. The soundtrack is very intense for a movie like this.
All in all, a ridiculous horror with a lot of frogs, good acting, interesting characters, but it takes itself way too seriously. I would recommend watching this for the frog close-ups. They're glorious!
