Anthony Cousins is an American horror filmmaker and cinematographer best known for creating the cult cryptid feature Frogman and its sequel Frogman Returns. With a background spanning grip, gaffer, camera operator, and director of photography roles, Cousins brings a hands-on, practical-effects-driven sensibility to his work — blending scrappy indie energy with meticulous technical craft. Before stepping fully into the director’s chair, Cousins built a reputation behind the camera on genre projects including Scare Package, Revealer, and numerous independent shorts and features. A lifelong horror fan influenced by practical-effects classics, Cousins champions handmade monster suits, in-camera effects, and the immersive realism of found footage storytelling. His work reflects a filmmaker who understands genre from the ground up — technically, creatively, and communally.
