Can you do a 'Troll' face? You know, that goofy grin that shows that someone has recently failed by your hand, the face of someone who makes life hard in a funny way?
Actually, the troll face has nothing to do with this post.
I'm talking about trolls. Trolls. There is no specific definition for them, some people say the small con artist Rumplestiltskin was actually a small troll, others say trolls are giants. They live in forests, under kids beds and in the cupboards, underneath a mountain, under the bridge. They lurk in the shadows because sunlight turns them to stone, and that is how you get odd rocks with faces on them, sun-frozen trolls.
They're not scary, they are just monsters that teach children not to wander off the path and under a bridge, and how you can outsmart opponents bigger and tougher than yourself.
But if they were real they'd be terrifying, and there is a nice film about it, 'Troll Hunter'. 'Tis epic, filmed in a 'Blair Witch' style, but not as scary. It's a rather funny awesome film.
The trolls vary hugely, just like the ones in mythology. They are basically monsters, but they have gnarled human-like faces like the trolls in story books. Watch the film, go and borrow it from your nearest 'we have DVDs too' library, or buy it.
Go on.
You know you want to.
