    7:08 It's even funnier because the snake abruptly changes its species when the camera zooms in. At first it's an Eastern diamondback rattlesnake, then in the close-up it's shapeshifted into a cottonmouth. Those don't even have rattles!

    Someone probably said it already, but the "frogs" in this movie seem be almost entirely cane toads. Also, while that is a rattlesnake at 7:09, that's a cottonmouth at 7:13. I'm pretty sure it has it's fangs, but vipers have folding fangs sheathed in the gum so you can't really see them unless they're actually going to bite.

    The story of animal rebellion (including a dog that remains loyal) was done in a short story published in 1917 called "The Coming of the Terror" by ARTHUR MACHEN. (which is in the public domain if you want to read it)

      Thanks for the tip! I've never heard of this, but I love that era. I just printed off the first chapter from gutenberg.org (sidebar - they also have other influential stories like "The Yellow Wallpaper" and "Bartleby the Scrivener").

    In a horror movie called "Frogs" watch victims die from things like
    Spiders
    Poison
    Snakes
    Alligators
    Snakes again
    Crabs
    And finally... FROGS! (But most likely it was just a heart attack)

    (12:00) I remember that TV movie _Starflight: The Plane That Couldn't Land_ back in 1983! I was a freshman in high school and loved anything that was even remotely sci-fi. The movie was about a "super plane" that somehow flew too high and got stuck in orbit so they have to be rescued somehow. If/when GBF ever starts delving into good/bad TV movies, I nominate this one for inclusion on the list of movies to review! ;) BTW, the other movie this guy was in that same year, _Cave In!,_ also starred Leslie Nielsen! :)

    I am surprised that, as a child, I didn't recognize Ray Milan when I was a kid. His distinctive voice makes it so obvious that he is the actor who played greedy Sire Uri in Battlestar Galactica, a show I was in love with as a kid. I was surprised to see that Milan was in the role. I remembered a recognizable face as the old man, but my memory turned it into someone else entirely!
    Frogs is not an awful film. Aside from the misleading poster that suggests man-eating frogs, the movie manages to be a bit surreal and gets under your skin because of its low budget and that 70s film grain quality. Definitely a strange offering, a film that jumped on board the nature strikes back thing that got popular for a bit. The other movie that comes to mind was called The Day of the Animals. I guess all of this stuff was inspired by The Prophecy, or maybe The Prophecy was inspired by this? Hell, I don't know!

    I seem to remember another frog horror movie (remember the same kind of menacing frogs footage) from the 80/90s. As i recall it was different kinds of creatures attacking but included frogs and spiders. It was kinda "Birds"-like, nature fights back kind of thing. Cant remember the name though.

It's a French Giallo movie about a serial killer in 1970's Paris who is murdering actors in the Gay cinema production world.

    I actually remember watching this movie as a kid back when it appeared on television. At the time, I had no idea this was suppose to be a...."horror film" lol I was assuming it was maybe a thriller....with a few bits of comedy. But no, websites do state that this is suppose to be a "horror film." So in other words, we're suppose to take it seriously. And you know what, that makes it even funnier! I would say it's one of those "so bad but good movies," like Troll 2, but it's not. It's just a really bad movie. But a real enjoyable one lol
