Torok the Troll

Torok the Troll is the main antagonist of the comedy-horror film "Troll" - which is considered by some to be one of the worst movies of all time (along with its unrelated sequel): however like many comedy-horrors it has gained somewhat of a cult following.

Torok is depicted as an ancient troll who lived long ago in a world where humans and magical creatures lived in relative harmony, Torok was not pleased with this however and gathered an army of magical creatures - Torok proceeded to wage war with humanity and claimed many lives as he sought to make magical creatures the rulers of the world.

Many centuries later Torok resurfaces in the modern world and sets about reclaiming the world and transforming it back into the fairy tale world of old while replacing humans with magical beings - his evil plans were opposed by a young boy with aid from a benevolent witch who had a past history with Torok.

Torok shared some similiarities to the Leprechaun (from the Leprechaun series) but instead of being a comedic and sadistic demon Torok was actually rather serious in tone and was not driven so much out of malicious glee than extreme misguidance - he geniunely believed the world would be better off as a fairy tale realm and viewed humans with relative contempt (though he did show a twisted form of friendship with unique or special people).
