If you’ve never heard of Troll 2 , you’re probably wondering why a 35-year-old Italian B-movie (filmed in Utah with an American cast) still haunts the cultural periphery. The answer is simple: It is the Citizen Kane of bad movies. It is not merely "so bad it’s good." It is so aggressively, sincerely, and spectacularly wrong that it loops all the way back around to genius. A wholesome American family, the Waits, swaps houses with a creepy family in the rural town of Nilbog ("Goblin" spelled backwards—yes, the film has to point this out to you). Young Joshua has a vision: the town’s cheerful inhabitants are actually goblins, led by the seductive witch Creedence. Their plan? To feed the family "magic" green slop that will turn them into vegetables (celery, specifically) so the goblins can eat them.
