Frogman Returns director Anthony Cousins | Interview

Bloody Good Horror

Show Notes

Anthony Cousins won over found footage horror fans big time in 2023 with his ode to Ohio's famous cryptid, the aptly titled "Frogman". Since then, Anthony and his indie film have amassed a cult following, that has even lead to the establishment of a Frogman convention in Loveland Ohio, the real life home of the mysterious creature.

As momentum builds around Frogman, Anthony and crew are currently traveling the country screening its sequel, "Frogman Returns" for festival audiences, and garnering positive reviews along the way.

Rachel and Eric sat down with Anthony recently to chat about the unlikely influences behind Frogman Returns, the trials and tribulations of shooting on authentic retro cameras, and dealing with his own legacy as "The Frogman Guy".
