It's not a movie.
It's the TV cartoon series by Joe Chandler (American Dad) and Mike McMahan (Rick and Morty).

Oh that one, I know of that one.
Though a Golden Axe movie would be cool. As much as I like 1982 Conan the Barbarian for its raw style, watching it over and over makes me yearn for more like it.

"Sony is filming with Paul Anderson (yes... the very bad director... not the good one) a new House of the Dead and it creates thanks to the $60 million budget and $40 million p&a spend a new hype worldwide," Uwe Boll wrote on his new website.
"That will create the opportunity to re-license my original but also to make money with a new film from me named 23 Years Later - Return to Zombie Island.
"The idea is to bring the dead from my film back as zombies like Ona Grauer, Will Sanderson, Tyron Leitso, Clint Howard, Elisabeth Rosen and maybe even das boot captain Juergen Prochnov," he continued. "The only survivor of my original film Rudy (Jonathan Cherry) will be trying to rescue his daughter and her friends who went against his advise to the locked off island. This new film shows a group of sexy, silly, campy, horny, young adults to a sleepaway camp - but it's not ...

What do you think are the chances the "golden frog" will make it into the film? Just as in Resident Evil, the zombie virus was originally created from a flower, what if those frogs are needed to make the creatures in some way? As if they have some sort of chemical or enzyme to make Formula X with. (While Formula X was from Overkill and was never mentioned again throughout THotD series, I imagine Thornheart's organization are capable of mass-producing clones since the invention of the BioReactor, but are unable to keep the clones alive or stable. So they use Formula X which is normally a mutagen to reanimate their clones as creatures. While in-game the reason why enemies look identical and even share the same names is because of video game limitations, but it's also why I believe they are clones and not generic zombies.)

Anyway, in all THotD games, not only are golden frogs reoccurring bonus items, but they're the only bonus item that are animated to behave like a frog. It makes me wonder if those frogs are actually escaped laboratory animals and AMS offers 1000 points if those frogs are collected as evidence.

So I'm curious if the frogs will make it into the film.
