We don't normally get a chance to write about Norwegian cinema here at empireonline.com - everyone's favourite Nazi-zombie flick Dead Snow apart - but today we're happy to buck that trend with an exclusive UK Quad poster of the Scandinavian horror-thriller mock-doc** Troll Hunter**.

The plot of the Blair Witch/Cloverfield-style pseudo-documentary, as you might have guessed, revolves around a Troll Hunter, who, um, hunts trolls. Played by Otto Jespersen, a controversial Norwegian comedian, this hunter of trolls is followed by a team of documentary makers initially interested in bears before uncovering a much bigger problem... humongous trolls.
You see, what they didn't realise is that trolls aren't fairy tale creatures – they actually exist, kept in the northernmost parts of Norway by a ring fence of electric pylons. They are huge, and will crush you. Shame, really, they look so nice from the poster and this...
