Troll 2 Documentary Best Worst Movie Comes To DVD November 16

Disc Announcements, News




Best Worst Movie, the absolutely must-watch documentary about the making of Troll 2, will be available to own on DVD November 16. That date will also mark the availability of the film for digital download.

Michael Paul Stephenson’s documentary follows the cast and crew behind one of the most infamously bad movies to ever be released in America. Staring in the documentary is Dr. George Hardy, an Alabama dentist who clings to his role in Troll 2 with such glee and determination that it becomes admirable. It doesn’t  hurt that Dr. Hardy is one of the most likable men you’ll ever have a chance to watch a movie about.

Whether you are a fan of bad movies or just a lover of quality documentaries, Best Worst Movie is a film you need to take the time and seek out. Because if you don’t, you’ll just be pissing on hospitality and I won’t allow that.

Here’s the official press release:

“BEST WORST MOVIE” PARTNERS WITH NEW VIDEO FOR DVD AND DIGITAL RELEASE
Award-Winning, Critically-Acclaimed Documentary about the “Worst Movie Ever Made”
Available on Multiple Distribution Platforms Beginning November 16

New York, NY – September 15, 2010 – How many people can claim they starred in the worst movie ever? Michael Paul Stephenson will forever be known as the screaming, whining, ten year-old who saves his family by urinating on their dinner. Today, he is the director and producer of Best Worst Movie, a critically-acclaimed documentary inspired by his role in what has been crowned the worst movie of all time: Troll 2.

New Video, a leading independent film and TV distributor, announced today that Best Worst Movie will be available on Tuesday, November 16, via DVD and digital platforms. A film festival favorite in 2009 and currently playing in theaters nationwide, Best Worst Movie will be released under New Video’s Docurama Films brand.
In this hilarious and heartfelt story about the strange nature of celebrity, a sunny Alabama dentist and a self-deluded Italian filmmaker struggle to come to grips with their role in the worst movie ever made. The result is a tender offbeat journey that pays homage to lovers of bad movies and the people who make them, while investigating a deeper story about the catharsis of redemption and the humanity that exists in making even the worst movie ever made.

The DVD includes more than an hour of deleted scenes and interviews; fan contributions, including music videos and mash-up trailers; Filmmaker Q&A with Creative Screenwriting Magazine, and a provocative message from TROLL 2’s Goblin Queen, Deborah Reed.

The DVD and digital release of Best Worst Movie closely follows the Blu-ray release of Troll 2 in October from MGM.

BEST WORST MOVIE
is written, directed and produced by Michael Paul Stephenson; produced by Lindsay Stephenson, Brad Klopman and Jim Klopman.
