"Trollhunter", a Norwegian film.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trollhunter

Trollhunter (Norwegian: Trolljegeren; UK: Troll Hunter; Canada: The Troll Hunter) is a 2010 Norwegian dark fantasy film, made in the form of a "found footage" mockumentary. It is written and directed by André Øvredal, and features a mixed cast of relatively unknown actors and well-known Norwegian comedians, including Otto Jespersen. Trollhunter received positive reviews from Norwegian critics.

The film is done in "The Blair Witch Project" style. It was a style not my fav until I saw this movie.

The next day Hans makes them disguise themselves with "troll stench" (a slimy concentrate made from "everything you can squeeze out of a troll&quot and checks if any of them believe in God or Jesus, because a troll can smell a Christian man's blood. Hans wields a "flash gun", a weapon that emits powerful UV-rays to simulate sunlight and turn trolls to stone, though he comments that sometimes the trolls "just explode". The students are stunned when Hans flushes out a giant three-headed troll.

This sounds absurd, but the movie makes it seem possible.

We love Star Wars, The Avengers, and Batman.

I loved this movie more. It was totally creative.
