This episode was originally broadcast way back on Nov. 25, 2019, before we figured out the whole audio thing.

This week we are talking about the best worst movie Troll 2, including green goo, sexy corn, goblins, dentists, whether or not you can piss on hospitality (you can’t, I won’t allow it), Harry Potter, war criminal ghosts, language barriers, but absolutely zero trolls.

Troll 2 (or Goblins) is a 1990 independent dark fantasy horror film written and directed by Claudio Fragasso under the pseudonym Drake Floyd. It stars Michael Stephenson, George Hardy, Connie McFarland, and Jason Wright. The plot follows Joshua Waits as he tries to save his family after the spirit of his deceased grandfather warns him that the town of Nilbog, where the family are spending their vacation, is inhabited by goblins who turn people into plant matter to eat them. Although produced under the original title Goblins, American distributors marketed it as a sequel to the 1986 horror film Troll. However, the two are unrelated and Troll 2 features goblins rather than trolls. The film was produced by Filmirage; development was rife with difficulties, largely due to the language barrier between the Italian-speaking crew and English-speaking cast, and producer Joe D'Amato's approach to low-budget filmmaking. It was released on October 12, 1990 by Epic Productions, and some considered it to be one of the worst movies ever made. In subsequent years, the film has gained a cult following. Though it was generally viewed as a poorly made horror film, the filmmakers stated that it was "always intended to be a comic film." Stephenson later directed the critically acclaimed 2009 documentary Best Worst Movie about the production and subsequent popularity of Troll 2.

Is this our longest title ever? First, Indy reviews several basketball documentaries including; Bill Russell: Legend,  Bad Boys, I Hate Christian Laetner, This Magic Moment, Crossover: The Trial of Allen Iverson, Malice at the Palace, and we have a not so brief divergence into the role of Allen Iverson in America's cultural battlefields. Then, Samantha recommends Star Crossed: A True WWII Romeo and Juliet Love Story in Hitler’s Paris by Heather Dune Macadam & Simon Worrall. Finally, we get ready to watch Troll 2, the best worst movie!

Spooktober continues as we discuss the second The Simpsons Halloween special Treehouse of Horror II. Then Indy previews his Spooktober pick, the divisive 2018 psychological horror film Hereditary.

I Love This You Should Too is hosted by Samantha & Indy Randhawa

"Treehouse of Horror II" is the seventh episode of the third season of the American animated television series The Simpsons. It first aired on Fox in the United States on October 31, 1991. It is the second annual Treehouse of Horror episode, consisting of three self-contained segments, told as dreams of Lisa, Bart and Homer and is the only Treehouse of Horror episode to date where each segment name is not stated inside the episode. In the first segment, which was inspired by W. W. Jacobs's short story The Monkey's Paw and The Twilight Zone episode "A Small Talent for War", Homer buys a Monkey's Paw that has the power to grant wishes, although all the wishes backfire. In the second part, which parodies the Twilight Zone episode "It's a Good Life", Bart is omnipotent, and turns Homer into a jack-in-the-box, resulting in the two spending more time together. In the final segment, Mr. Burns attempts to use Homer's brain to power a giant robotic laborer.
