Unsurprisingly, grumpy Southern chemical baron Jason Crockett (Ray Milland) is not terribly concerned with the environment. When Pickett Smith (Sam Elliott), a wildlife photographer in the area, stumbles upon the snakebitten corpse of Crockett's gardener, who was sent out to spray pesticide, he knows something is amiss. Smith attempts to warn Crockett and his family to postpone their Fourth of July celebrations as local animals begin behaving strangely, but Crockett stubbornly refuses.

Jeffrey M. Anderson Combustible Celluloid It's pretty dumb and not very scary. Rated: 2/4 Sep 27, 2024 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins An unfortunately unstimulating exercise in a stale idea with pitiful execution on a paltry budget. Rated: 2/10 Jul 20, 2024 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy [UPDATED 2024 BLU-RAY REVIEW] An imaginative premise, a solid cast, and a few surprisingly fresh characterizations lift this out of the mire. Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 14, 2023 Full Review Dustin Putman TheBluFile.com If "Frogs" isn't always perfectly logical, it is unnerving, providing apt foreshadowing to its ecological, don't-mess-with-nature themes without having to turn the proceedings into a preachy message movie. Rated: 2.5/4 May 21, 2015 Full Review Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy [The] kind of flatfooted incompetence that can turn a sane person into a dedicated bad movie watcher for the rest of their days. Rated: 3/10 Jul 4, 2012 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews A 'nature strikes back' environmental horror film and not a film about the French as some of you wiseguys might have thought. Rated: B Jun 29, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews

Dustin S A very ribbeting film an absolute mastahpiece Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/30/24 Full Review Audience Member Fruggggggggggggggggg Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/07/24 Full Review Tom S Boring. A complete fail at every turn. No plot, no suspense, no idea why it was called frogs when all of the pathetically cheezy kills were made by other reptiles. RiffTrax would have a hard time making this dud worth watching. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/05/24 Full Review harwee h Sam Elliott was a stud but that's about it. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/24 Full Review Greg B A lot of these reviews claim the movie is slow and boring, but I found it absolutely ribbeting the whole way through. Don't leap to any conclusions on this one. Some scenes are scary enough to make you croak. Hop on this one if you're into campy, B-side horror. 4/5, toadally reccomend. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/29/23 Full Review Steve D Ridiculous but not fun ridiculous. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
