Trollhunter

Trollhunter is an award-winning 2010 Norwegian dark fantasy film. I watched it on Amazon Prime, but I had the DVD I found cheap in the used section of the video store back when we had video stores. I've given the DVD away.



Empire Online has a positive review. IndieWire gives it an "A". Rotten Tomatoes has a critics concensus score of 81%. Common Sense Media calls it a fun monster movie.

    1. Yes, isn't it. Trolls these days are nothing like the mythical creature. I wonder how the new meaning came about...

    1. I was impressed, and I don't generally care for the found footage style.
