Screening as part of Low Sky Weekend, a city-wide film series hosted by veteran curator (TIFF) and producer (In a Violent Nature) Peter Kuplowsky to announce his new film development company Low Sky Productions.
TROLL 2 (1990)
Director: Claudio Fragasso
Cast: Michael Paul Stephenson, George Hardy
Italy / USA
A summer vacation turns into a feverish nightmare as a family find themselves the intended main course for a clandestine cabal of shape-shifting vegetarian goblins with designs to transform people into vegetables! It's a wackadoo premise born from the mind of veteran Italian genre filmmakers Claudio Fragasso, and executed with sublimely hilarious dissonance as the production deployed a non-English speaking crew to wrangle its non-Italian speaking cast of endearingly hapless American actors. Coronated as the “BEST WORST MOVIE” by the critically acclaimed and award winning documentary of the same name, TROLL 2 stands within a pantheon of “cult cinema” that defies all traditional preconceived notions of form, aesthetics and taste, and yet somehow cultivates one of the most entertaining and baffling movie-going experiences of all time.
