So does J.K Rowling owe her entire career and the multimedia Wizarding World franchise to…..Troll?? If you don’t know what I’m talking about, just check out that main character’s name.
JesseMay 17, 2018Oh Troll...what a silly head you are. Shennanigans on overdrive. We have a Troll possessing people, Michael Moriarty being his usual weird and entertaining self and Elaine runs around naked for some reason. It's not the insane spectacle that is Troll 2 but there's lots to…
belial_carboniMar 10, 2019I've identified with Trolls my entire life so naturally this is an omnipotent classic that has permeated my entire everything. More than Trolls even, I thoroughly relate to retired mushroom wizards. It's still straight up jaw dropping when June Lockhart lets her hair down,…

ENGLISH below 🧌 "Troll" aus dem Jahr 1986 ist ein absolutes Trashfest der Extraklasse und lässt keine Gelegenheit aus, uns in eine Welt des unfreiwilligen Humors zu entführen. Und bitte, wir bekommen hier nicht nur einen, sondern gleich zwei Harry Potters - wobei Harry…
Mister Cap (english/german)Feb 9, 2024exists somewhere in the crosshairs of Gremlins, Poltergeist and The Sentinel, positing apartment possession horror that also happens to be filled with, and fueled by, a baker’s dozen of grotesque creature puppets (including a truly haunting mushroom that has a tongue) —…

19oldboy91Apr 30, 2022Troll is a magical 80s beast of bewilderment. Overshadowed by it's zany sequel, Troll doesn't always get the love it deserves. A crucial staple of bonkers cinema it maintains it's own marvelous identity of mystical madness. It's not often that a film can compete with the…

Incredibly cheesy and over-the-top silly but has a lot of charm, regardless of the low budget feel. The puppets and apartment sets are fantastic and the movie does not take it self seriously at all. If it weren’t for one or two scenes, it would be a fun film for the family.
KimLikesFood likedTrollI have a really vivid memory of seeing random scenes from this movie as a child. It took me literal years to figure out what the heck movie this was. So for that purpose it’s satisfying cause I figured out what the scenes were from. I enjoyed how cheesy it was.
Haley Mastronardi likedTrollSo bad that it’s good, one of the greatest genres ever. It was unintentionally funny and nonsensical. The practical effects weren’t half bad though. Definitely a lot of fun.

Troll has a knowing tone that's more smart-alecky than clever. And it hovers uncomfortably between comedy and horror, without ever landing decisively in either camp. The film is as funny as it gets in a sequence that has Sonny Bono pretending to be a great ladies' man.
