What is it about?
A family goes on a journey. But they haven’t reckoned with the dentist, who pulls all the strings here as incompetent director and chases them through a slaughter of film – full of trolls that aren’t trolls at all, but goblins.
What is it really about?
If you’ve always wanted to know how Soylent Green is made, Troll 2 will serve you well.
But not only that. The film teaches fear. I peed my pants several times because this film confronts the viewer with the most horrible creatures in human history: vegetarians/vegans. Supposedly trolls according to the movie title, but in the movie they are supposedly goblins, but we know: They are vegetarians/vegans.
These vegetable-headed creatures lure innocent people to their mysterious city of Nibolg, seemingly out of hospitality, but as soon as dinner is served, only green, gooey disgusting things are dished up. Typical of these monsters, who love to crush baby carrots and cabbages with their fangs. Green is healthy, these creatures think. But it is by no means so, as every child and also the child in the film knows, otherwise these lettuce nibblers would not be physically underdeveloped and ugly, because that’s what they are: vegetable eating not only creates chunky heads with grimace eating by masses of vegetables, but also a disgusting eco look with their potato sacks, which they stretch around their flatulent dwarf bodies.
And in typical vegetarian/vegan fashion, they not only want to offer their deviant Jell-O to the poor visitors, but also seize the opportunity and turn the visitors into Jell-O themselves. But human flesh is not a vegetable and it becomes chicken soup clear that such a goblin belongs to a species that is even worse than a vegetarian/vegan: would-be vegetarians/vegans and these spawns of hell gather in this film.
And I’ve been gripped by horror, fear, endless dread ever since. I only sleep with a Hungarian salami under my pillow instead of a machete to defend myself against these creatures if necessary, because that’s the only thing that helps. Maybe bockwurst will help too, but I want to be on the safe side.
That the whole thing might come across as amateurish as a film seems as naive as a children’s film, and actually it is. It is a children’s film. But me, I think it’s more violent than Martyrs.
Conclusion
I love these little Troll-Bros but yeah .. I’m vegan.

What is Stranger’s Gaze?
The Stranger’s Gaze is a literary fever dream that is sensualized through various media — primarily cinema, which I hold in high esteem. Based on the distinctions between male and female gaze, the focus is shifted through a crack in a destroyed lens, in the hope of obtaining an unaccustomed, a strange gaze.
