35 Years Ago, An Infamously Bad Horror Movie Secretly Subverted A Whole Genre

The Italian-produced, Utah-shot, so-bad-it's-good hall of famer is less about goblins (not a single troll, and especially not the one from 1986's Troll, appears in the film) and more about icky food dyed in sickly green colors. In the film, these gross foodstuffs are the poisoned creation of a witch and her flock of vegetarian goblins to trap innocent humans and turn them into plants, and only young Joshua Waits (Michael Stephenson) knows of its danger when his family arrives in the rural town Nilbog for a house-swap vacation.
