Be Afraid... Be Twice As Afraid!

TROLL
Lock the doors and pull out the weed-wacker for this house party of horror! One family is about to find out there's no place like home when a troublesome troll starts taking over their building, transforming each apartment into an overgrown garden of ancient evil and turning tenants into a horde of hairy hobgoblins! Michael Moriarty and Julia Louis-Dreyfus star in this super-slimy scare-fest that's "a special-effects pig-out" (Daily News)!

TROLL 2
Those greedy goblins are back and hungrier than ever in this gourmet gross-out! Disguised as friendly country folk, a pugnacious posse of people-eating trolls lures visitors to their town. But a family of four is about to discover this place is a real tourist trap... and now, the no-good gnomes must be destroyed before the family gets flambéed... and the world becomes a buffet in this feeding frenzy of fear!

Also included: BEST WORST MOVIE (DVD) – An affectionate and intoxicatingly fun tribute to the single greatest bad movie ever made and the people responsible for unleashing it upon the world. In 1989, a group of unknown Utah actors starred in what would be crowned the worst movie of all time: Troll 2!
Full Frame (1.33:1) / Dolby Digital 5.1 / 2010 / Color / 93 minutes

Awesome, never seen either of them but the reputation of 2 especially makes this an instant buy

Haven't seen Troll 1 yet, but I have #2 on BD already. Is the first one a "so bad it's good" movie like the second one is, or is it just bad?

IMO, the first is much better than the second.

I haven't seen it in a very long time but I really liked it when I was a kid. It's Not a "so bad it's good" kind of movie like Troll 2 though.

They have nothing in common, other than the name.. And the genre I guess. Here's a review of the Troll trilogy:

http://cinemassacre.com/2010/10/23/troll-trilogy/

The MGM anniversary release of Troll 2 is really good, I would've never believed that Troll 2 could look so good. Judging by their track record, the Shout release will probably have worse PQ. I'm guessing that they only made this "Troll/Troll 2" double feature is to differentiate from the MGM release. But it would've made way more sense if they made it a Troll 2/Best Worst Movie double feature. Even though Best Worst Movie was only shot in SD, it would still be really nice to have it on a blu ray disc next to a HD presentation of Troll 2.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOO

day1

redrunner97 · 07-11-2015, 03:59 AM

I REALLY REALLY hope that Shout includes Contamination .7 (aka: Troll III) as a bonus feature. They already have the rights and even if they just throw it on in SD it would be a plus.

Can't wait to retire my MGM dvds.

kngtmat · 07-11-2015, 04:13 AM

Nice for 1 as I seen all of it. The second I caught a few minutes before but never had the time to watch the whole thing.

Alfredlynch · 07-11-2015, 10:33 AM

Cool. The adult version of me says "are you sure you want to get Troll"? But the kid that still lives in side me says "Yes. it was a weird creepy, fantasy B movie that we liked"

Troll 2 is a piece of shit... It's not so bad it's good, its just plain bad

I'll pick this up someday. The inclusion of Best Worst Movie is a nice touch, but I bought the original release when it first came out so there is no need to rush.

kobol · 08-27-2015, 05:43 AM

Rat burgers!!!

Kev26 · 08-27-2015, 05:57 AM

I do believe it will have all the extras as well. I asked shout factory, and they told me that it indeed is the same disc already available. So I take that as it is the original DVD.

So why even bother releasing it on Blu-Ray?
Damn Shout! is really getting ridiculously lazy!

I believe they meant the Best Worst Movie DVD, which is just a bonus for the first however many orders. Not the Troll/Troll 2 bluray
