Troll 2 is truly an abomination filmed. It acquired a large cult following in the late '00s thanks to airings on pay cable channels like HBO. The movie has been called "The Rocky Horror Picture Show of the MySpace generation" - of course, this was when MySpace mattered. Troll 2 received screenings and panels at conventions and outlets around the world, but it hit its peak of popularity in or around 2008-09 and has since waned.
Troll 2 has nothing to do with the first Troll movie. In fact, vegetarian goblins are the culprits at the heart of this shitburger. The writer explained that she had a lot of friends who were going vegetarian at the time and she despised the notion, so she made all the goblins push a vegetarian agenda.
Troll 2 is a bad movie, but it's bad enough to be entertaining. Watching it alone is a little much, but seeing it with others is a lot of fun. It isn't pure camp, as it was earnestly made, but that's the charm of Troll 2.
