If you like really quirky documentaries with hilarious subject matter, you will probably enjoy this one.



Best Worst Movie
2009NR 93 minutes
Most people don't set out to produce a horrible film, so how exactly does it happen? This documentary about 1989's Troll 2 -- often referred to as the "worst movie in history" -- attempts to answer that question. Director Michael Stephenson, who, as a child, starred in the ill-advised horror flick, delves into how an Italian filmmaker, some unwitting actors and a dentist-turned-cult movie icon joined forces to spawn this dubious achievement.

Cast:George Hardy, Michael Stephenson, Darren Ewing, Jason Steadman, Jason Wright Director:Michael Stephenson Genres:Documentary, Social & Cultural Documentaries, Miscellaneous Documentaries This movie is:Quirky, Feel-good Format:DVD

1. Gonna make me want to watch Ed Wood.

Or MSTK3000. At least that's funny. These aren't bad like Ishtar or Leaving Las Vegas.

2. That sounds interesting

Some bad movies become camp, but some are so bad they're just plain bad. Where does one draw the line? What makes one camp and one just bad? (I'm talking about serious attempts at movie making, not ones that deliberately attempt campy humor.)
