Troll 2 Key Points

  • This movie is horrible—but the documentary is AMAZING!
    • If you are going to watch this film, be sure to watch the documentary about the film as a companion piece; Best Worst Movie.

  • Oh you thought there were Trolls in Troll 2?
    • No Trolls, just druid, vegetarian, goblins.
    • Oh and they can take the form of  redneck hillbillies with herpes sores on their face.
