Q&A With Best Worst Movie Director Michael Paul Stephenson
Screening tonight at Silverdocs is Best Worst Movie, Michael Paul Stephenson's look at the B movie to end all B movies, Troll 2.
Stephenson starred in Troll 2 as Joshua, a boy whose dead grandfather would appear to him to warn of vegetarian goblins -- not trolls -- that were out to get his family.
