"Cryptid hunters, rejoice! Using almost exclusively practical effects, Frogman is a found-footage creature feature based on the eerie real-life legend of the Loveland Frogman. Directed by Anthony Cousins and filmed mostly on Hi-8, Frogman will be available on Collector’s Version VHS February 9 and on VOD/Digital Platforms on March 8." Ahead of the film's VOD & Digital release, we have an exclusive clip just for Daily Dead readers!
Official Synopsis: "Loveland, Ohio. Home of the Frogman. In the summer of 1999, a 12-year-old named Dallas Kyle captured footage of the mythical creature, but no one believed it was real.
Twenty years later, Dallas, now an amateur filmmaker struggling to turn his passion into a career, returns to Loveland with friends Amy and Scotty determined to obtain irrefutable proof that the Frogman exists. But what starts as an innocent documentary soon turns into a Lovecraftian nightmare as Dallas uncovers the horrific secrets hidden beneath Loveland's idyllic surface.

But then this film is called Dark Cloud isn’t it? Which can only mean one thing. Something is going to go wrong with Chloe’s treatment. Right? Right. After all, AI has been the source of all things evil since Stanley Kubrick’s 2001. Speaking of which,...
