      Those frogs are so creepy they look like the Budweiser frogs if they came across the ooze from teenage mutant Ninja turtles. And that Sandahl Bergman's character trying to dance all sexy to get Roddy Piper to mate with the fertile women is pointless since the stipulation in her contract that deters her from getting naked not even taking off her top. And Roddy Piper gets released that he has to wear some kind of Chastity jockstrap that can explode if he Dodges the mission it's just emasculating, and he has to ride around with women in a pink PT cruiser. You probably wish he was back in the joint.

    No joke, Randall Frakes, the guy listed at 2:06 as co-creatting the story with the director is my older cousin. He was friends with James Cameron when Cameron was working for Coreman, and Cameron wrote Terminator on his floor before Cameron had a place to live. He has a credit in Aliens under sound mixing and told me about how the Queen's whipping tail was made with a belt, and he contributed to the screeching sound of the chestburster coming out of the woman. He also was the one to get my parents to let me watch Aliens as my first R rated movie. Um sure he wasn't biased at all lol

    • @ZombieWilfred

      What's funny to me is it really doesn't matter that it's attached like a chastity belt, because one ounce of C4 attached to any part of a person from thighs, to torso, or biceps, is basically guaranteed to kill them, most likely would even if attached to an extremity like a hand or foot. Back when you used to be able to buy explosive rounds as a civilian, you'd see lots of stories of hunters hitting an animal in an extremity and, if the round exploded (they didn't go off very reliably in soft targets, had to squarely hit a bone to set off he primer for the charge,) it would kill animals as large as coyotes and wolves just from the effect of the hydrostatic shock and internal bleeding. Those weren't even high explosive, either, just gunpowder in the cavity in the bullet and a primer on the nose, so they didn't have the pressure wave that C4 and other high explosives create. May have just been hunters' tall tails about those bullets, though, but regardless, one ounce of C4 directly attached to a person, even one as large as RRP, is almost guaranteed to be fatal...

He also played roles in some bigger budget movies including Conan's father in the original Conan the Barbarian, the leader of the Spetsnaz company in the original Red Dawn, and the bare knuckle boxer Eastwood faces at the end of Any Which Way You Can.

    I saw this before, but I still need to see the sequels... I think Roddy's best work is as Da Maniac in It's always Sunny in Philadelphia.

    I first heard of this movie from one "Teddy Rubskin", in fact I've heard of the whole franchise from that RUclipsr. Yeah this movie really looks like a true cult classic. Also gotta dig those make-up and practical effects.

    17:50 I think I remember watching that movie after seeing that part, but it was in the late climax of the movie. Found the movie by accident as I was switching channels. It was back in the early 2000s.

    i remember when Allison Pregler, still going by Obscurus Lupa at the time, had to take down her reviews of the Frogtown movies
    she replaced the footage with poorly done MSPaint art and, honestly, i thought it was a massive improvement!
    it just added to the surreal nature of the entire experiance
    i never understood why the take down was issued - i actively sought out these movies after her glowing review - i had never heard of them before her review

    Well to be fair, the eye poke was indeed an in-ring staple of Roddy. It was kind of a signature for him, just like the low blow for Flair and the back rake for Hogan. A subtle nod, I say

    This movie is a guilty pleasure for me. It's like Mad Max meets Killer Klowns from Outer Space. It doesn't take itself seriously and it's a joy to watch for it's silliness. I got a huge chuckle out of this one considering it had one of my favorite wrestlers from the 80's and two actors from Conan the Barbarian in it whom I admire a lot. The frog makeup was pretty cool for a low budget movie and they were hilarious.

    Oddly enough, I get the feeling that this entire movie helped inspire the lizard bar scene in FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS... too bad that one didn't have Roddy Piper or Sandahl Bergman, probably would have enjoyed it more.

    Fun fact, the revolver used in he beginning of the movie was a .36 caliber muzzle loading 1851 navy replica. Because it is a muzzleloader, it is not a firearm in the US or England, along with several other countries. So, the scavenger was fine by modern law.

    Nice job and this movie has a place somewhere, but still trying to figure out where. William Smith as the tough guy from "Any Which Way You Can" is a classic B star. I am surprised that you didn't mention him from "Piranha"or "The Bee Girls", or something like that. He did a bunch of low budget films, plus that 80's popular series, "Rich Man, Poor Man". At any rate, I now have to check out this film, as it somehow has my attention and curiosity. Keep em' coming and nice job!!!

    I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. Roddy Piper is always enjoyable to watch. It's wild. Can't say the same about Return to Frogtown. They changed so much that I don't know why they kept Sam Hell and Spangle as the main characters.
