TROLLJEGEREN

Mountain Trolls
Forest Trolls
Trolls Under a Bridge
...and Goats Blood of course!


What more can I say? Trollhunter, original title Trolljegeren  (2010), written and directed by Andre Overdal was incredibly pleasing in so many ways.  Stumbling upon this gem one rainy Sunday afternoon will be remember for the rest of my life.  
First off, what an incredible story!  A faux-documentary (which deceived me at first, so sad) about a few students following a suspicious man who is always present at the scene of murdered bears.  To the students surprise, it turns out the dead bears are a simple cover up thanks to a secret Government Department that deals with Trolls.
Secondly.  The CGI/Animation of the Trolls were astounding.  They were beautifully gruesome. 
Most Importantly?  Just a fucking awesome film. From the script, to the scenery was beautiful and the Trolls blew my mind.

Thank you Norse Mythology
