June 29, 2020 SSwS 4-Trollhunter
This time on Screen Squabbles with Sydney we chat about the 2010 Norwegian cult classic Trollhunter! Don't be afraid of the subtitles, they are totally worth it. This is mockumentary style, funny, action & mystery. You will love it!
Housekeeping: This is what we call our 'palate cleanser', a legitimately good movie in the same genre. We'll cycle these between each round of host picks.
