Featured review
While it's pretty obvious that this film was done on a low budget (i.e. the same shots are repeated over and over and over) this is a pretty effective horror movie and deserves a look. The death scenes are well executed (and the end is quite chilling), the music is appropriate (it's sounds almost like an "angry swamp"), and the locations are put to good use. It's definitely a b-movie and is not at all "great cinema", but it's still a minor classic and should have some kind of cult status.
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMany of the 500 Florida frogs and 100 South American cane toads purchased for use in the film escaped during production.
- GoofsWhen Pickett Smith is wandering around the island, he sees Grover lying face down in a marsh, where he was killed by being bitten by a venomous snake. Grover, however, is clearly still breathing.
- Quotes
Clint Crockett: Well it seems like everyone in our family is hung-up on frogs.
- Crazy creditsAfter the closing credits fade out, an animated frog hops onscreen with a human hand hanging out of its mouth, after which it turns to face the audience and slurps the hand into its mouth, then it turns away from the audience and hops off-screen.
- Alternate versionsIn the film's pre-release prints, Iris (Holly Irving) dies by being forced into a quicksand pool by a giant butterfly and then drowning in it rather than dying by snakebite. The scene, however, was thought to be too silly-looking and, thus, it was cut. Clips of the cut scene can still be glimpsed in the film's theatrical trailer, however.
