Troll 2/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Audience Participation: During the viewings of the movie, the audience would throw popcorn and bologna slices, as well as counting down to when Joshua "pisses on hospitality".
    • At B-Fest 2010, the entire room joined in on the "Oh my goooooooooooood".
  • Dolled-Up Installment: The movie originally had the more appropriate title Goblins.
  • Hey, It's That Guy!: The costumes were designed by Laura Gemser of Emmanuelle fame. That's right: the costumes were made by an actress famous for... not wearing clothes.
  • Name's the Same: Lampshaded on the Riff Trax: when Diane refers to her husband as "Farmer Waits", Mike Nelson, bemused, starts singing "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" in a Tom Waits impression.
  • Prop Recycling: Two masks from this movie were reused in Quest for the Mighty Sword, sequel to The Blade Master. For this reason, it's sometimes released as Troll 3.
  • Throw It In: In the original script, Joshua stops the family from eating the corrupted food by making a scene, namely, by jumping on a chair and yelling he's possessed. The day the scene was shot, Claudio Fragasso (the director) turned to the boy playing Joshua and told him, "Possessed, boring, bullshit. You piss on the table." A legend was born.
