5. Who's Going To Be Eaten Next? - Troll 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NMGsRmZTFQ Many words have been said about Troll 2 and it's doubtful that any of them were in any way positive. First off, despite being marketed as a sequel to the 1986 film Troll, Troll 2 has absolutely no connection to the former film. It also has no trolls in it and instead chooses to use goblins as villains. Vegetarian goblins. Yet it seems director Claudio Fragasso forgot about that key plot point during a scene where an attractive blonde is killed and then eaten by the goblins. She does turn into green goo so maybe that somehow makes it all right for the goblins to eat her. This video is more about the plight of the survivor, a genius named Arnold. As he observes the goblins eating, Arnold yells out, "They're eating her! And then they're going to eat me! OH MY GOD!" Arnold loudly drags out the screaming, likely drawing the attention of the puppet goblins. The whole scene is brilliantly awful from Arnold's impossibly slow realisation of his impending death, to the fly on his face that the camera crew lazily decided not to edit out. This scene is a major reason why Troll 2 has become a cult classic and now has fans who loudly celebrate its awfulness.
