The Waits family is looking forward to a nice, quiet getaway in the country in the sleepy town of Nilbog, although son Joshua has strong misgivings about the trip. The young boy is being visited by the ghostly apparition of his late Grandpa Seth, who warns him that they’re heading into a land of man-eating goblins with the power to disguise themselves as humans.
Sure enough, when the Waits arrive in Nilbog, things are ominous from the outset — the locals are frosty, all the food is tinged a bizarre green color, and the only milk available in town looks like it’s been left out for days.
Whilst the rest of the family attempts to make the best out of these bizarre circumstances, blissfully unaware of the grave danger they’re in, it’s left to Joshua — guided by Grandpa Seth — to lead the charge against the vicious goblins and their evil queen before they’re next on the menu!
Claudio Fragasso (Hell of the Living Dead, Zombie 3) writes and directs. Michael Stephenson, George Hardy, Connie McFarland, and Jason Wright star.
Often considered one the worst movies ever made, Troll 2 spawned a documentary directed by Stephenson in 2009 titled Best Worst Movie.
