Bad Movie Review: Troll 2 (1990)

Starring: Michael Stephenson Deborah Reed Robert Ormsby Dir: Claudio Fragasso (as Drake Floyd) Often regarded as the worst horror film ever made – “Troll 2” has a cast of unknowns who mostly went on to never act again.

Bad Movie Review: Chopping Mall (1986)

Starring: Kelli Maroney Tony O’Dell Russell Todd Dir: Jim Wynorski Kids locked in a shopping mall overnight with malfunctioning, killer robots? I dunno, is there nudity? There is? Sounds like a bad movie! Jim Wynorski’s “Chopping Mall” is a great example of 80s exploitation garbage.
