Loveland, Ohio. Home of the Frogman. In the summer of 1999, a 12-year-old named Dallas Kyle captured footage of the mythical creature, but no one believed it was real. Twenty years later, Dallas, now an amateur filmmaker struggling to turn his passion into a career, returns to Loveland with friends Amy and Scotty determined to obtain irrefutable proof that the Frogman exists. But what starts as an innocent documentary soon turns into a Lovecraftian nightmare as Dallas uncovers the horrific secrets hidden beneath Loveland's idyllic surface. Can Frogman read minds? Does he really have a wand? Does Frogman f*ck? One thing is certain. The croaks are no hoax!

4/5

A cryptid comedy that croaks its way into genuine terror, Frogman is a love letter to found footage filmmaking and small-town legend. It’s clever, creepy, and packed with surprisingly strong practical effects.

... With its body horror as concise as it is grotesque and memorable and its Lovecraftian base, Frogman will inevitably strike a chord with those nostalgic for Innsmouth. [Full review in Spanish]

It’s riddled with flaws, especially early on, but as a cryptid-based found footage flick that's based on a real-life legend, Frogman is still worth a midnight movie watch.

Anthony Cousins and co-writer John Karsko use so-called Lovecraftian aspects to give us a fresh perspective on how true stories about horrifying events are commercialised and sold as entertainment even when they have very real effects on survivors.

Frogman ultimately feels like an interesting premise that falls into the swamp of found footage gimmicks.

Frogman knows exactly how silly and absurd it is, but never backs down on its own weirdness. A wild ride of hilarious high-strangeness, gross-out gags and kooky, loveable characters.

So much fun! Found footage, it's all about the last 20 minutes

Didn't make it past 30 mins. Seemed like love drama with a conveniently placed camera, on record, capturing all the juicy conversations somehow. I got bored quickly. Even if the end is the good part, I couldn't do it.

Not a cinema revolution for sure, but not a bad movie too. "Frogman" is quite scary for its apparently silly monster, which actually has a really interesting lore

I went into this as a found footage fan, and came out wondering if the genre as its been is dead now. The characters are poorly fleshed out, the pacing is seemingly meant to be a slow burn but it's barely a fizzle. Overall, a waste of money, this would be potentially passing if this was the directors first film, in middle school film. The only redeeming quality is the actual effects themselves which deserves kudos.

The final 30 minutes are bonkers but you have to sit through a whole lot of nothing to get there...
