Troll 2 is a 1990 B-Horror comedy film that is an all out disaster.  From bad acting and dialogue not making sense to cheap monster costumes and hilarious special fx, it's no wonder this film has been named the "Best Worst Movie".  The movie was basically ignored upon its original release, but somehow over the years something magical happened.  It fell into that weird "Cult Classic" category and people fell in love with it for its flaws.  When you dig into it a little bit, you'll find that the behind the scenes stories are even strange that the movie itself.  

On this episode we examine this cult phenomena and have a fun chat with one of the stars of the film, George Hardy.  Like most of the people with staring roles in this movie, he had no professional acting experience and was only hoping to land a role as an extra.  Fate stepped in and George became the unlikely hero in this whole odd situation.

George even treats us and delivers his now famous line from the film, "YOU CAN'T PISS ON HOSPITALITY, I WON'T ALLOW IT!"

Enjoy!
