Troll 2. No, Not THAT Troll 2
Here is the official synopsis for Troll 2: Troll 2 picks up with an all-new threat. When a dangerous new troll wakes up and goes on a rampage, our heroes Nora, political advisor Andreas Isaksen (Kim Falck), and former army captain — now a major — Kristoffer Holm (Mads Pettersen) are faced with their most perilous mission yet. The clock is running out as the monster's path of destruction widens, and they must overcome impossible odds to save their homeland from falling into darkness.
I enjoyed that first film. It had a been there, done that feel to it, but the effects were great, and I enjoyed the characters, so it is good to see so many come back. I am not sure I needed a sequel to be made, but Netflix has so few franchises that those streaming numbers meant it was inevitable that one would be made. While there is no firm release date known for Troll 2 on Netflix, one would think they will hold it for later in the year, maybe sometime in the fall when it can get a ton of buzz, after the summer movie season.
