In this ultra-cheapo Italian knock-off a little boy tries to warn his family and friends that the evil trolls his late grandfather used to tell him about are real.

As bad as they come.

It's rare to find a film with such an ignominious reputation actually living up to the hype.
On par with the worst of the Krofft Brothers' productions.
I was not prepared, even after watching an equally long documentary on this film alone, for the epicness of this ridiculously plotted, inane, badly acted, hilarious, horrifying ride down insanity lane.
