Troll 2Ok, there is absolutely no way that I could run a blog and not bring up Troll 2 at some point. For those who have never heard of this little cinematic gem, you are missing out! It is by far, and I mean BY FAR, the worst movie ever made. The director was czechoslovakia, and just to give you a little hint of how terrible it is, my friend described it as though they took the foreignly written script, copied the whole thing into an online translator, and spit it out as a shooting screenplay in english. Despite the fact that this is undoubtedly the worst thing ever put on film or rather most likely because of it, it is also one of the funniest things you will ever see. It is almost as if they purposely tried to screw up the acting, directing, cinematography, and all the other parts in order to make it side splitting hilarious. I defy you to watch it and not instantly love it. In fact, it has grown such a cult following that there are teams of people who would agree with that logic. You would be quite surprised to find out all the events that are centered around this movie. And why not celebrate the worst movie ever made? It has earned its name as the Best Worst movie, and actually a documentary of the same name was just released this year exposing the public (and most of the movie's aged actors) to the cult following itself. I got to experience it this past summer when it aired at the Indianapolis International Film Festival, and it's almost as good as Troll 2 itself. It is thoroughly amazing to sit back and witness the difference that this little movie has made within the cult community, and it certainly goes to show that even though a movie may be excruciatingly awful by all senses of the word, that doesn't make it any less recognized.
