Troll 2

About This Movie

Oh man, 'Troll 2' is such a curious case in the realm of cult cinema. You’ve got this bizarre setup where a kid named Joshua is trying to warn his family about goblins in a town called Nilbog – which, if you flip it around, spells 'goblin'. The pacing is all over the place, and the performances feel both earnest and unintentionally hilarious, especially from the likes of the dad, who delivers some truly memorable lines. The practical effects are low-budget yet oddly charming, capturing a strange blend of fantasy and horror that just feels off-kilter. It’s the kind of film you watch not just for the story, but for the experience itself – a real oddity that keeps you guessing what will happen next.

Consider watching with a group for added enjoyment.Fascinating how it became a cult classic despite its flaws.Interesting to compare with other low-budget horror from the era.
