A boy tries to save his life and that of his family from the claws of terrible magic-men creatures. Thanks to the help of the spirit of his deceased grandfather, he will manage, after some difficulties, to save his own skin and his family. The film in question would have been co-directed by D'Amato and Fragasso, but there are those who instead claim that the film is the work of the latter alone, and that D'Amato's name was added for "commercial purposes," and the mediocrity of the film seems to support this thesis. Do not be misled by the title, it is not a sequel to the infamous "Troll" by Buechler: the plot and characters are different, only the disappointing quality of both films is the same. A missed opportunity for D'Amato (assuming he also actively participated in the film's direction), used to working with very few resources, for once he had a decent budget at his disposal but did not know how to take advantage of it.
