    Effective despite premise and budget

    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.

    A minor thriller with major atmosphere

    The plot here is little more than: "Help! We're surrounded by hostile creatures!" Yet there's something about this movie that lodges in the memory and it's probably its heavy, humid atmosphere -- like a hot summer day where nothing's happening yet you know there must be a storm brewing just over the horizon. The eclectic cast is headed by Ray Milland but the star here is Sam Elliott who makes his first real impression in the movies. His let-me-strip-off-my-sweaty-shirt-and-display-my-hairy-chest scenes were SO impressive that they landed him the lead role in that piece of beefcake-nirvana called "Lifeguard."

    (June 2009 update: Note how this movie finds echoes, seven years later, in another Sam Elliott movie: "The Legacy." In both movies Elliott plays a young man who, because of a transportation accident, winds up as a reluctant guest at a mansion located in an isolated spot in the country. The mansion is owned, in both cases, by a distinguished older gentleman who suffers from a physical disability. There are other guests at the mansion and during the course of Elliott's stay, these guests are killed off, one by one -- in a variety of bizarre fashions -- by a mysterious force. In both movies, Elliott performs "beefcake" scenes which have a gratuitous quality. In "Frogs," he appears twice without his shirt and in "The Legacy" he has a rear-view nude scene.)

    It Won't Make You Croak

    Statistically, this movie was a hit. Made for $200k, it grossed over $2 mill in the US alone. This was the secret of success for American International Pictures. Keep the budgets low, and the base of horror fans will show up and you'll make a profit. 1972 was the year for horror. A large number of films catered to the horror fan, many were cheaply made. But they all made a profit. Frogs is an example of a movie poster created before the movie was filmed. Frogs don't kill anyone in the film, but they made a cool poster. So they were thrown into the mix of alligators, lizards, snapping turtles, snakes, spiders, etc. Since many of these creatures make people queazy, it must have seemed like a slam dunk to film- fearmakers. However, the animal performers are less than convincing. Especially the alligator, where producers sped up the film to make him look like he's moving quickly. The acting is as good as can be expected for this type of film. Joan Van Ark and Sam Elliot debut here (Van Ark had done a soap). Milland is good as the cranky old rich stereotype. If you're looking for a "tame" horror picture to keep the kids interested, this might be it. For adults, it's value is mainly nostalgic.

    eco-thriller from the 1970's

    Actually had good actors in it, but I think the directors of the early 1970's were just taking too many drugs.

    So a decent ecology journalist scoring extra Politically Correct points is taking pictures in a swamp in Florida when he falls in with a family of rich industrialists browbeaten into obedience by a wheelchair bound Ray Milland.

    A bunch of menacing frog direct reptiles to engage in a series of attacks requiring a lot of ineptitude by the character actors who are picked off. I don't think the frogs actually kill anyone, they just keep looking menacing... maybe they were co-ordinating the operation as the other reptiles did all the hard work.

    Bonus point.. Joan van Ark in a tight-one piece showing a lot of leg.

    Nature against Mankind – The Payback

    The free-lance photographer Pickett Smith (Sam Elliott) is taking pictures of the pollution in a swamp in Florida for a magazine of ecology in his canoe. Out of the blue, he is hit by a motor boat piloted by Clint Crockett (Adam Roarke) and his sister Karen Crockett (Joan Van Ark) and capsizes.

    Clint and Karen invite Pickett for the party in the private island of their grumpy grandfather Jason Crockett (Ray Milland), an old fashioned disabled patriarch that enjoys celebrating his birthday on the 4th July with his family.

    Pickett realizes that the island is infested of frogs and reptiles and Jason has ordered his caretaker to poison his real estate to get rid of the amphibians and creepy crawlies. But soon Picket realizes that they are living the payback of nature against mankind.

    The trash "Frogs" is probably one of the first movies to defend the ecology and absolutely ahead of the time. This is the first feature of Sam Elliot, who acts with the veteran Ray Milland. The story is funny and never scares but entertains. My vote is five.

    Title (Brazil): "A Invasão das Rãs" ("The Frogs'Invasion")

      Many of the 500 Florida frogs and 100 South American cane toads purchased for use in the film escaped during production.

      When 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.

      Jason Crockett: Karen... and everyone else... this conversation has ended!

      Pickett Smith: No, it hasn't, Mr. Crockett. Look, with Grover and Kenneth dead, I don't know what's going on around here... or if it is happening anywhere else... but we are a bunch of damn fools not to face the fact that we are in a hell of a lot of trouble! And we're gonna have to get together to fight it!

      Bella Garrington: Keep talking Mr. Pickett, 'cause you are the only man around here who's saying anything!

      Pickett Smith: First of all, we're gonna have to try to find Iris, Stuart and Michael. But to be very honest with you... I don't think we will. Not alive anyway. But whether we find them or not, we've got to get off this damn island! All of us, now! We'll take the power boat. If we have to, we'll tow the canoe.

      Jason Crockett: And leave this house empty and deserted... on the Fourth of July?

      Pickett Smith: I don't really think there's gonna be anybody around here to worry about today. Maybe if you didn't notice, but there hasn't been one boat out on that lake all day!

      Clint Crockett: Do you think this is happening everywhere, Mr. Smith?

      Pickett Smith: Well if it is, I think we'd stand a better chance if we all get out of here together.

      Jason Crockett: Well, I forbid it! I control these people, not you!

      Bella Garrington: Nobody controls me, Mr. Crockett! Now I'm asking for your permission to get off this island, by myself or with anyone else, I just want to go!

    • Crédits fous
      After 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.
    • Versions alternatives
      In 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.
