Neither - but

A damn good documentary for sure! While you may not agree with calling the Troll 2 movie (which probably could have been called anything else and originally had a different title, also not a sequel to the Original Troll) either the best worst or just the worst ... the documentary makes quite a compelling case.

There is nothing like having a watch party with a lot of people who feel similar. So that experience those people have is quite unique. Also very unique is the italian director of the movie. Still in denial or rather very much in delusion when it comes to his movie. Then again, what do I know? He's the expert, right? But kidding aside, he is quite the character and his constant bickering and and telling off people (even the actors involved) ... genius.

And there are notes that give you different perspectives, like "actors" from back then experiencing everything differently, even so many years after the fact. The "Dad" being primarily the focus here - even when it comes to shipping him to a convention - where nobody seems to care about him. You know the other side of "fame".

Some might feel that there are omissions, especially the number one bad character from the movie, but she is in the extras of the Disc version - not to mention a lot of deleted scenes - probably at least an hour. Not all of that good, but when you watch them you have even more respect of the editing of this documentary. Well done overall - which while it can't be said about the movie this is based on, shows us the real people behind that movie and how they really are. Loveable to say the least the lot of them
