Well, this is a bold step. I'm writing my first review on what is considered to be one of the worst films of all time.
Here goes.
Troll 2 is (supposedly) a horror film. The film was written directed by Claudio Fragasso. The main plot of the film involves a family moving to a small town called Nilbog (it's goblin backwards!!!) where only the son can see what's going on around them. With help from his grandfather's ghost (who tends to show up in the wrong room) the boy discovers that the town is infested by vegan goblins, dead set on turning the family into plants in order to consume them.
This film is undoubtedly horrible. The production quality as well as the writing and score are atrocious and lack any relevance to the events. Regardless of its shortcomings, however large they may be, this movie is hilarious. The sheer stupidity of the film makes it one of the most entertaining I've ever seen. The film begins with a "suspenseful" chase through the woods set to the a very "appropriate" dance-pop song. The scenes just get worse, and many are forever ingrained in the viewer's mind., from a scene where the son urinates on his family's dinner in order to save them from being turned to plants, to the infamous "OH MY GOD!" scene (just watch it). Everything about this film tells me to hate it and put it off as the worst thing I've ever seen. But its campy stupidity gives it a special place in my heart, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a good laugh.
