BEST WORST MOVIE Alt Cinema

“Bad books are bad, bad food is bad, but bad movies aren’t always bad ” So says one of the fans of TROLL 2 a film adored by devotees as the worst film ever mode . ‘1n BEST WORST MOVIE, director Michael Poul Stephenson investigotes the improbable rise of a critically panned horror flick of the early ’90s to a pop-culture touchstone. Stephenson, who starred in TROLL 2 nearly 20 years ago, chooses to focus on his on-screen father, the amicable George Hardy, as he comes lo terms with his strange, newly found celebrity and the crushing demands of being a cult icon. Equal ports side-splitting and heartbreaking, this is more than a movie about a movie; it’s a film about that powerful bond forged between cinema – even bad cinema – and the people who love it.
