 Thank you Conan O'Brien, my life is complete. December 10, 2009

I decided to buy this movie based on the recommendation of Conan O'Brien. At first I was skeptical, I mean, how can a movie about goblins be any good? Oh how wrong I was. When the package arrived from Amazon I carefully unpacked the glorious DVD and threw it into my player. The movie was 95 minutes of majestic film footage. Troll 2 has become my favorite movie of all time, taking the crown from Godfather. Thank you Conan, for making such a life changing recommendation, and thank you Mr Claudio Fragasso for directing this classic I will not soon forget.

AMAGAD!!!!! AMAFAKINGAD!!!!! AMAMOTHAAFAKINGAD!!!!! This movie is a *beep* masterpiece! It's so *beep* bad that it's *beep* awesome! It's one of the funniest movies I've ever seen! I couldn't stop laughing my ass off! In fact, it's so funny that I really have a hard time believing that it wasn't supposed to be. Maybe it was supposed to be? Who knows? I don't think that the acting was intentionally bad, but I'm pretty sure that some scenes were intentionally stupid and funny. Anyway, It REALLY doesn't deserve to be in the bottom 100! If you gave this movie less than 3/5, you're a boring *beep* and you don't have a sense of humor. AMAGAD!!!! AMAMOTHAAFAKINGAD!!!!
Well, sorry for the childish review, but I think that the movie destroyed a few of my brain cells.
worst movie ever (which makes it great!!!!) November 1, 2009

This movie is a mess. Really bad acting, poor script, etc. For example, the town is NILBOG, which is GOBLIN backwards. haha!! Fortunately, the combination so do much bad makes is pretty good.
This is one of those movies like Rocky Horror Picture Show, with some really funny scenes that will make you laugh out loud and want to talk back to the screen. Definitely better when watched with friends.
I am not one of watching movies more than once but have enjoyed this one a few times. A different experience each time, depending on who is with me.

The first time I saw Troll was when I was a kid (around 25yrs ago or so). I had completely forgotten about that movie until recently when I heard some music from the movie. I went looking for the movie and found that there was a "two fer" of Troll One and Two on DVD. I had to have it! The original Troll movie is great - schticky, halfway decent acting, a decent story line, cheesy special effects, typical 80's movie. Troll 2 on the other hand is the absolute worst movie that I've ever seen. I've seen A LOT of movies, and I truly mean that Troll 2 was the worst piece of garbage ever to be put to DVD. The acting was absolutely horrible (I know, that's how it's supposed to be), the storyline was weaker than a glass house, and the "special effects" look like they were designed and constructed by someone "special" if you catch my drift. It pained me to watch that movie. I understand that the whole purpose of a "cult classic" movie is to be so terrible that it's good. Troll 2 takes this to a whole different level. In most cult classics, theres an attempt at a storyline, half hearted acting, and some hope that the movie will be make it to the box office, but only ends up being loved by a select group of people. Troll 2 makes no attempt to be semi decent. It's absolutely awful. I feel like I've lost IQ points from watching it. If this movie truly is a "cult classic" as it says in the description, I'd hate to see the people in the "cult". I'm sure they're drooling, semi conscious, blind, deaf, and wearing a helmet as not to hurt themselves. I would have given this dvd a 5 if it just had Troll 1, but just the fact that Troll 2 is tainting the disc brought it down to a 3. Buy this DVD for Troll 1 and don't even waste your time watching Troll 2. It's total garbage and I hope the "actors" never find work again for purposely doing such a shoddy job.
Troll 2 - NOT incredibly bad July 31, 2009

2 stars for "Troll 2"
I was all keyed up to see what a lot of Amazon reviewers were describing as possibly the worst movie of all time, "Troll 2"... Big disappointment. It's not THAT bad. Typical 2 star B-movie. I'd compare it to any of the lousier entries in the Puppet Master series in terms of quality. I guess the movie's main faults, and they're pretty common faults in B-movies, are that there is too much information given in dialogue about the plot, the acting is sub-par, and the movie drags after a certain point. Nothing to get worked up about. I've been working with director Frank Stamm on some his his YT videos recently and, after having had some experience now in film/video production, I can actually say a few POSITIVE things about "Troll 2": the camerawork is fairly good, and some care was put into the script -- even if some of the dialogue is a little Saturday-morning-TV-hokey. The movie's biggest fault probably comes from the fact that the actors seem amateur-level. If they'd been better actors, they could have made the dialogue sound more believable.
