So it's one of those fake documentry movies but the schtick this time is a crew in pursuit of the truth behind a series of bear attacks on the Norwegian border with Russia. They smell a goverent conspiracy and uncover the secret work of, well the titles a spoiler already, a troll hunter and begin to film him as he educated them on the various breeds of troll witnessing some of the facinafing beasts along the way.
It's the found footage film of the year! So goes the hype but does TROLL HUNTER live up to it's reputation? Oh yes. Happy Horror Hard On is very happy indeed at this Norfic mash-up of THE BLAIR WITCH HUNT (obligatory mention) and Scandanavian folklore. If you do not like "found footage" flicks then you're all ready lost to the cause but if you do you'll find a gem in this film. It maybe could do with a little trimming of the fat in some places just to zip along faster but the troll effects are great and a lot of fun.
Already touted for a remake by Chris Colombus for people who don't read subtitles too well it's a full on hairy troll hard on for TROLL HUNTER.
