    A group of three college filmmakers set out to investigate what appears to be an illegal bear hunting situation in the mountains and forests of Norway. What they discover instead is the gruff but quiet hunter Hans who reluctantly acquiesces to their accompanying him as he hunts something far more unlikely…and far more dangerous.

    Also known As: Troll Hunter / The Troll Hunter

    In 1980, Italian director Ruggero Deodato made a little film called Cannibal Holocaust that caused quite a ruckus. The movie people watched was presented as footage found after a group of Americans went missing in the jungle and on said footage was their encounter with, and demise at the hands of, a cannibal tribe. People flipped the fuck out! Deodato was in court facing charges for murder because everyone believed the film to be real. Thus spawned many copycat flicks using the same tactic. Today’s audiences have grown accustomed to the ruse and aren’t as easily duped. There was a big panic around the time of The Blair Witch Project but nothing really since. With so many filmmakers making a “mockumentary” or found footage film, they have to be really well done in order to really be effective. Luckily the new Norwegian production The Troll Hunter (Trolljegeren) handles the technique with precision.

    We see the footage of a group of college students who are working on a documentary film project about bear poaching. All the serious hunters are angry at a mysterious man in a Land Rover who seems to be poaching, so the kids make getting his confession a priority. They find he stays out all night, every night, and is not that kind to the idea of being on camera. Once they are alone with him in the woods it quickly becomes apparent bears are not what he is after. He works for a company that pays him to wrangle and control the population of trolls that have existed for ages, yet no one knows about. Hey, those fairy tales have to come from somewhere. From that point on they follow him around on his quest to find out why so many of the creatures are venturing out beyond their normal territories and causing a lot of destruction.

    The good thing about the secret screenings at Fantastic Fest is sometimes you get something that isn’t quite finished or no one really knows is completed. It makes sense that the last secret film of the fest would be something to fit in this year’s Norwegian spotlight. Rumors began to suspect an unfinished print during the day of the screening, but the lucky audience was treated to a finished cut that was completed just three days prior. None of the programmers had seen any of the film, they had no clue if it would be a dud or a win. Let me tell you, it’s all win.

    TrollHunter (2010)

    It is obvious from the title that there will be troll hunting at some point, but there are plenty of other turns in the film to keep you entertained, intrigued, and gazing with wide eyes. In the film’s opening you are treated to some lovely landscapes of Norway which only get better as you journey along. For a found footage film the cinematography is surprisingly stunning. There is very little of the shaky camerawork and the image quality is crisp and clean. One shot during the film’s climax will leave you drooling with joy. You could almost use footage for a tourism video, it surely made me want to go there even more than I did before. Then there are the FX shots of the trolls. I’m not sure what kind of budget this film had, but I assume it was small since most films with this technique don’t have a lot of extra cash. If it was indeed a smaller budget, they used it well. The creature design is breathtaking and leaves you believing they are real. They don’t look like the little round belly dolls with frizzy, bright hair and they don’t chat with you cordially. These creatures are mean, big, and ugly. Everything you would want to see in this kind of flick. Not only is the design wonderful and heavily involved, but there are different species of troll that are shown in various stages of life and all sorts of sizes. I’m already crossing my fingers for action figures.

    The acting in the film is wonderfully natural, which is probably what you want from a movie that is supposed to be real. Each character is crafted and written extremely well, from the typical confident college kid to the older troll hunter who is really just a guy fed up with his job. There are times of levity, and a couple moments that are pretty damn funny, but don’t take this as a light-hearted movie. Great scares and some tense moments keep you waiting on the edge of your seat and bring back the thrill of the giant monster movie.

    One of my favorite aspects of the film is the pacing and the story which unfolds. With a lot of films there is that moment sometime after the first act where, in a moment of ridiculous exposition, a character gives you all the info you need to know, but no such case here. Slowly you learn more and more about the trolls all the way until the very end, and even then there is still a bit of mystery surrounding them. Even better are the moments of scientific explanation for rules set by the folklore and storytellers years ago. Filmmaker André Ovredal seems to have thought of everything.

    With the style of film and subject of “monsters”, there may be some comparison to to Cloverfield, but this is a very different film. I’m not going to say it is better, because it’s so different but… all right, I’ll say it. This is better. The Troll Hunter will keep you smiling, maybe jumping, and amazed as you go on this great adventure.
