Lazy pre-"Jaws" nature-nuns-amok flick RELEASED IN 1972 and directed by George McCowan, "Frogs" chronicles events when myriad swamp creatures (frogs, snakes, alligators, lizards, scorpions, tarantulas, crabs, etc.) vengefully attack a crotchety old man's Southern mansion in the swamp. Apparently, they’re hopping mad about the toxic chemicals used to exterminate them, not to mention pollutants in general. The film stars Ray Milland as the old grump, a mustache-less Sam Elliott and a young Joan Van Ark. "Frogs" predates "Jaws" (1975) by a few years. The creators were obviously going for a swamp version of the basic "The Birds" (1963) plot. The difference is that "The Birds" is a first-rate flick whereas "Frogs" is second rate, which isn’t to say that it’s unprofessional or that there aren’t points of interest. Any fan of nature-runs-amok flicks should find something to like. The film gives you what you pay for: Real swamp locations with real swamp creatures horrifyingly attacking and killing people, not to mention a grand antebellum mansion and grounds. The best thing is that the story is taken seriously. There's no silliness or camp to be seen as in, say, "Lake Placid" (1999) or "Crocodile" (2000). Another highlight is Joan Van Ark who’s quite fetching at 28 during shooting. Lynn Borden and Judy Pace are also worth mentioning in the feminine department. On the other side of the gender spectrum, there’s Elliott, who’s excellent as the low-key macho protagonist, as well as Adam Roarke and David Gilliam, amongst others. The main problem with “Frogs” is that there isn't any suspense; the tone is curiously lazy. But if you're a fan of creatures-on-the-loose films or any of the cast members then you'll probably find something to appreciate. It has more originality than the many post-"Jaws" flicks and there are indeed a few horrifying parts. Just don't expect a Class A film like "The Birds" or much suspense and you won't be disappointed. For any who complain that the name of the film is inaccurate in light of the fact that there are various bog creatures attacking the people, not just frogs, think about it like this: The frogs are like little Napoléons sending their soldiers into the fray. THE MOVIE RUNS 90 minutes and was shot entirely at Eden Gardens State Park, Florida, which is located on the panhandle 20 miles west of Panama City. WRITERS: Robert Hutchison and Robert Blees. GRADE: C+
