This is a documentary about the "so bad it's good" movie "Troll 2 (1990)", a movie that is so bad that it gained cult classic status, like "The Room (2003)", with sold-out screening, etc.
The documentary is pretty interesting and well made. Everyone in the cast is interviewed - many of them are aware of how bad the movie is, and take it lightly. Others (including the director himself) take the movie extremely seriously, completely unaware (or in denial) that people like the movie because it's terrible. One of the actresses actually compares it to movies such as "Casablanca". The Italian director - who, like Ed Wood, actually believes he made a great movie - goes so far as to call his actors "dogs" when they criticize the movie and tell people "you don't understand nothing" when they ask him simple questions about flaws in the movie. You get to meet some weirdos, but most of them are nice people and they all have one thing in common - they all like the movie industry.
