Description: And here we are once more, with the recent call to bring the Frogtown quadrilogy to the fine folks here , we looked to see what we had in the vault that could aid the cause. In our search we found that we had access to the only one of the four flicks which doesn’t have any version here at the moment. So without further ado we bring you…
As to what this flick is about? Well that’s a bit of a difficult task to try and explain without being heavily medicated. Many of the Shaw/Jackson flicks follow a path of “Zen film making”, now if you don’t know what that is, it’s the same way that many of us made movies when we were kids. We got together with some friends had a basic idea of a scene we wanted to shoot and then committed it to video/film without a script or a rehearsal. Thus we are all “Zen masters” in that aspect of film making. The Shaw/Jackson (from these directors – Big Sister 2000) difference is a slightly larger budget {a few hundred dollars instead of a cooler full of beers/pop} and that they then actually market and sell it to folks! The following review gives a pretty good idea what you are in for in this vid…

LOL, wouldn’t this require a sort of “negative badness” for a movie? Imaginary badness, the “square root of negative quality”? 😀
I like that concept. Please attribute it in future use 😀

Nope… This movie fails to meet at least one standard for imaginary bad. Just judging from the stills, it appears the cameraman had some kind of grasp of the concept of pulling focus, so this movie can’t possibly be imaginary bad.
To be imaginary bad it pretty much has to fail on all possible levels. Adequate, if sucky, camerawork is clearly one level
Note:
The Gold Standard for imaginary bad is clearly Manos, Hand of Fate. I am open to alternate suggestions, but it is hard to imagine how any professionally released film could even hope to exceed being a celluloid disaster of greater magnitude. Even Plan 9 doesn’t hold a candle to MHoF.

Apparently this film is an early cut of Max Hell Frog Warrior, which is also available on this site.
