In 1989, a movie was made. It was a
terrible movie, so terrible in fact that it is heralded today as one
of the worst movies of all time. IMDb lists it as the number 93 worst
movie of all time. It's definitely one of the worst movies I've ever
seen. This movie is titled
Troll 2.
It's the tale of a family that goes on vacation to the town of Nilbog
(goblin spelled backwards) only to find that the local population
wants to turn the family into goblins. The young son of the family
tries to fight against the goblins with the help of his dead
grandfather who appears as a ghost. You may be thinking, “Don't you
mean they want to turn the family into trolls? The film is titled
Troll 2, after all.”
No, there are no trolls in
Troll 2,
in fact this movie has nothing to do with the original
Troll.
However, this isn't a review of
Troll 2, it's a review
of
Best Worst Movie, a
documentary about
Troll 2's
recent revival as a cult classic.
