    • Quotes

      Narrator: In the latter days of the 20th century, there arose a difference of opinion.

      [a nuclear bomb suddenly detonates]

      Narrator: The leading experts at the time believed a nuclear war would only involve the exchange of a few bombs. And then, the suitably horrified combatants would sit down at the peace table.

      [Another explosion]

      Narrator: They were wrong. In just 10 days, 10,000 years of human progress was virtually blown to dust.

      Narrator: 10 years later, they tried again.

    Stupid Fun

    The only thing I got to complain about Hell Comes to Frogtown is the fact that it did not exploit its potential to full extent. This is solid 80s cheese with lots of stupid but fun ideas, a cheesy show on a B-movie budget. On the other side of the coin the action and sleaziness factor is not that high - I know a lot of movies of the genre that provide here a higher level. Anyway, watchable for the connoisseur of cheesy post-apocalyptic B-movies. Starring Roddy Piper (They Live!), Sandahl Bergman (Conan The Barbarian, Red Sonja, She).
