Day 29: Best Worst Movie

Director- Michael Stephenson

Starring- Michael Stephenson, George Hardy, Darren Ewing, Jason Steadman, Jason F. Wright, Claudio Fragsso

Critics Review- "A documentary so enthusiastic, good-natured and sweet about such an abject disaster that it almost makes Troll 2 worthwhile.

Out of a possible of 5 stars- 4 1/2

My Review-

Troll 2, where do you began with this movie? I watched Troll 2 a last year and it was possibly the worst film I have ever watched, yet now it has become a cult phenomenon. In this documentary, it's lead actor Michael Stephenson takes a look back at the movie and its actors to see how and why it has become a cult classic, with people having Troll 2 parties and annual showings. Stephenson follows Hardy and his other co-stars as they go to showing after showing of Troll 2 to its adoring fans who genuinely love the movie. We meet the director of Troll 2 Claudio Fragsso, who things he made a really good movie when it is actually really bad. Also hear stories from the set of the movie that was not made nearly 23 years ago and how they felt about making the movie and how it changed their lives forever. One of the actresses Margo Prey; who made Stephenson and Hardy really uncomfortable during her interview is actually very weird now. Another thing is that the director Fragsso seems like a jackass who keeps saying his movie is good and the rest of the people do not know what they are talking about. This documentary shows how a group of people who thought they were making a good horror movie back in 1989, which turned out to be really bad, and how they dealt with it; to how they felt about showing the movie to different people and the people that love the movie for all its glory.
