If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
View MoreAmazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
View MoreThe film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
View MoreReturning to her hometown, a young woman intending to go to a party with friends comes into contact with a deadly escaped amphibious creature and finds herself set up on the same path by turning into a ravenous beast and forcing those around her to stop the creatures' rampage.This one was quite a decent if disappointing overall effort. When this one works, it has a lot to like about it through the old-school style of filmmaking present throughout here. The overall concept of the creature coming to life in a botched military experiment that soon turns her into one of the creatures just like the one that attacked her has such a firm of these past genre efforts that it really becomes all the more fun for how it grows from that simple setup. The addition of the scientist looking for the cure for it all and the ability to live out in the wilderness undetected before being brought back to society with her condition completely unaware of by everyone else gives this some old familiar grounds to play with when it turns to the creature-on-the-loose scenes. The opening attack at the central gas-station serves as a fine lead-in to the rest of the scenes with the flaring neon lights and the fog-enshrouded grounds which makes for an intriguing look to the grisly action that occurs here, from the transformation at the house which leads into the family slaughter to the standout brawls in the laboratory setup which is exceptionally fun and graphic with all the different back-and-forth setups featured throughout here. Due to the constant misunderstandings of the agent and trouble that causes, the finale here has a fun old-school cheesy charm that offers plenty of goopy effects with a nice flair and a rather impressive showing of practical effects with the creature suit and some nice gore scenes. These here manage to hold this one up over it's few minor flaws. The main issue to be had with this one is the obvious low-budget running throughout the film. The cramped in feeling and generally localized setting all give this the kind of obvious appeal that doesn't really strike as being all that high-brow which might be somewhat off-putting in terms of seeing some of the special effects thrown around here. As well, none of the science in this makes any sense at all as to how the frogs are producing a chemical toxin that can allow a person to mutate into a murderous amphibian creature which is quite silly and cheesy here because none of it really comes together. The short running time is somewhat of an issue, but otherwise, this one doesn't have much else really wrong with it.Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language and Graphic Violence.
View MoreThis is one of those films that gets my minimum vote rating which I give only out of respect for the work put in by the production and crew.However, aside from that, based on what I saw in this film, it would be advisable for everyone involved to take a good hard look in the mirror and seriously consider new lines of work.I love campy, humorous, schlocky films - think Troma. This one is as far from a fun, cheesy Troma film as it is possible to get. If this one had wooden acting, bad dialog and lousy special FX...well, that would have been a step in the right direction.Stay away from this one...very, very far away.
View MoreThis was an Indie movie which have received great critic reviews even from the Los Angeles Times and ITunes. I am not sure some people who left bad reviews on IMDb realized it was an indie. This was filmed three years ago after which went to several film festivals and received great response. The Director Tim Reis was the best to work for. I played the role of Wade Jr and I appreciate the kinds words left for me in other post. The make up director was phenomenal the way the monster looked scared me on set :) I thought all the actors did a great job bringing this script to life and especially Tim Reis for writing and directing. What a great experience
View MoreThis movie a part from a very low budget i would say no more then 50k or less as been done and redone so many times.The costume for the frog man is not bad and the gore too but the rest it boring and amateur at best.From the acting to the troubled PI that imagines striking people and you know its all in is head to the script and so on.I am giving it a 2 for the effort and its not worth more.
