In this episode, we take a deep dive into Troll (1986), exploring its strange blend of fairy-tale fantasy, apartment-building horror, and surprisingly gnarly body horror. We break down director John Carl Buechler's creature-driven vision, the cast's horror credentials- including an early role from Julia Louis-Dreyfus - and the film's most unsettling transformation scenes. From its inspirations in 80s creature features to the cult legacy it spawned, including Troll 2, this episode examines why Troll remains a bizarre but unforgettable entry into 1980s horror cinema.
