Another week has come and gone and my love for horror movies has grown even stronger the closer we get to Halloween. My partner Felicia continues to avoid watching these movies through methods Bones or Sleep. I, however, continue to watch them in the dead of night....
Tonight's selection is the cult horror B-movie ....
The premise of this particular movie is.... a cranky millionaire and his family live on an island estate where the millionaire basically slaughters anything that moves. This eventually leads to a break in the food chain; frogs and various reptiles over populate the island, and when the millionaire decides it's time to kill them too, the various reptiles take their revenge by slowly killing off his family. The movie says that it's about killer frogs, but honestly, the frogs are the least of everyone's worries. Most of the victims are killed by snakes and lizards knocking shit off of shelves which mysteriously catches things on fire, creates poisonous gas, and runs people into giant tarantula webs. The millionaire is eventually killed by the frogs (whose noise he complains about in the middle of the night) but they don't do anything terrible to him really except come in a hoard and consume him.
There. I told you everything that happened in the movie so you don't have to bear the pain of watching it yourself.
Now, I'm going to try hitting myself on the head with a ball-peen hammer to make myself forget the entire thing ever happened.
