Marketed as a straight horror film, Troll is more a children’s fantasy movie with some grotesque horror elements, along with some surprisingly touching material at times.
This unlikely cult hit kicked off a string of sequels – the latest of which should be released later this year. And none of them would have been hits if it weren’t for the iconic character of The Tall Man. We honor Angus Scrimm’s memory with a fresh, fair look at this classic from 1979.
