"Watching Best Worst Movie made me want to see Troll 2, the reportedly shitty flick this documentary is about. I want to see it not because Best Worst Movie makes it sound gloriously awful, like those videos of fat women shitting on county fair porta-potties. I want to see Troll 2 because I was so fucking mystified as to why it's being celebrated as so bad it's wonderful.
The problem is that Michael Stephenson, who was in Troll 2 and has made Best Worst Movie, assumes that Troll 2 is so bad that everyone loves it. Rather than justify that assumption through the movie, he hauls out the biggest load of asswipes this side of an Axe Deodorant convention to say that they love the movie, without ever getting at why in any interesting way. The discussion isn't thoughtful or reflective, it's just a collection of the easiest-to-reach dickwads who want to be on camera. That means fake hipsters who think that declaring love for a shitty movie somehow gives them personality or makes them interesting. They aren't."
