Troll 2 Movie Review AKA The Best Worst Movie is a 1990 American horror movie that has since become a cult classic thanks to its admittedly terrible execution. Directed by Claudio Fragasso and starring a cast of mostly unknown actors, the film has gained a dedicated following for being so bad that it's actually entertaining. The plot of Troll 2 follows a family on vacation in a small town in rural Utah called Nilbog (spell it backward, and you'll see what the filmmakers were going for). They soon discover that the town is overrun by vegetarian goblins who plan on turning the family into plants and eating them. Along the way, there are plenty of unintentionally hilarious moments, cringe-worthy dialogue, and bizarre choices that make the whole thing a delightful mess.
Mistress Harley appears in a new review of the film, offering her take on why Troll 2 has become such a beloved film among fans of bad movies. As a self-proclaimed "evil genius," Mistress Harley seems to relish in the sheer ridiculousness of what she's watching. She candidly admits that she's not a fan of horror movies in general, but is drawn to Troll 2 because of its unique place in cinematic history as one of the worst films ever made.
Throughout the review, Mistress Harley points out some of the film's most iconic moments, such as the infamous "Oh my God!" scene, where the protagonist Joshua screams in horror at the sight of a goblin. She also makes note of the strange decision to make the villainous creatures vegetarian, which adds an extra layer of absurdity to an already bizarre plot.
One of the best parts of the review is when Mistress Harley breaks down some of the most confusing plot points and explains how they make absolutely no sense. For example, she questions why the family has decided to swap homes with a family from Nilbog in the first place, and points out that the film's oft-repeated catchphrase of "They're eating her... and then they're going to eat me... oh my goooooood!" is not only nonsensical, but also delivered with such exaggerated acting that it's hard not to laugh.
Overall, Troll 2 Movie Review AKA The Best Worst Movie is a delightfully funny and irreverent take on a film that has become a legend among fans of bad cinema. While the movie itself is undeniably terrible, there's something oddly endearing about the sheer earnestness with which the filmmakers tried to make a horror movie for a new generation. And as Mistress Harley points out, the sheer ridiculousness of it all is part of what makes Troll 2 such a beloved and enduring classic in the world of bad movies.
