    A Revenge Horror Film Must See

    Who doesn't like a revenge film tinged with politics? Thoroughly enjoyed watching and look forward to more of what Key will bring to us next. The feel matched the mood in terms of the photography. The cast feels local and I hope this movie serves as a spring board to successful careers in future projects. For anyone familiar with local politics here in southern Indiana, the plot is clear who they kidnapped and I recommend anyone from here to watch and enjoy. Eat the Rich? Eat a local corrupt and scummy politician who for some reason keeps getting voted into office. Can't wait to see Kermet's next venture!

    Cult classic

    I love foreign and independent films and was not disappointed by this movie. I was skeptical at first but I couldn't stop watching.

    It's definitely worth a watch and very well done 🤗 I just really enjoy movies that make you think about reality. I don't typically like HP Lovecraft but I liked this one.

    Kind of reminds me of Army of the dead, one of my favorites. I remember when everyone else was not into it because of the off the wall camera work but it was an independent student film. Today it's a cult classic.

    Be sure to watch last the first end credits:)

    I hope to see more from Frog Labs. Definitely my line of movie genre.

    Low Budget Gem!

    While others see "garbage", I absolutely see a gem/ diamond in the rough! The plot is & was pure gold! Who doesn't want to rage against the machine/politician?!

    Though the quality is less than desirable, the film has independent charm & gripping characters.

    The overall story, makes up for any short comings. As a first feature film, I found it very enjoyable. I found humor & deep thought provoking theory.

    Over looking, the cheesy special effects, because I'm a Gen Xer.. lol I was definitely having flashbacks lol.

    I have seen the film more than once and would definitely recommend to other viewers.

    I look forward to seeing more from this start up!

    An Excellent Independent Film!!!

    I love horror movies and I've seen a lot of independent horror movies. Though none of them have impressed me such as this particular one has. At approximately three minutes in I was hooked. The whole thing is quite the ride for a Lovecraft fan and it just gets weirder and weirder as it goes! You can tell they put their hearts and souls into it and that's one of the best things about it. The passion for Lovecraftian horror is extremely apparent! Keep up the excellent work, I'm looking forward to anything and everything this studio puts out! This will be a beautiful start to my long relationship with anything Frog Labs puts out going forward. Thank you Frog Labs for making this masterpiece of a film you've gained a fan for life!

    P. S. - Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn!

    Lovecraftian!

    If you're a Lovecraft fan, this terrific independent film will be a thrill. It's jam-packed with references towards the Lovecraftian mythology, eldrich horrors of the mind, and the story line is also full of twists, turns and surprises!

    When this small group of friends decide to kidnap a politician, it doesn't turn out to be an ordinary kidnapping and the politician himself is anything but ordinary! This is gets surreal.

    It's very well done! I really liked it! For me, the added bonus is that I found out about a religious group that's protesting the film, that makes it even more fun in my mind.
