Nah, it's great. Blood, doom and beasties, and it inspired John Gardner's Grendel.

It's great because it started that cliche about monsters and their mothers. Whenever you kill a monster, it's mother, who is both larger and a total bitch, will come to kick your ass.

Yay for Grendel's Mum!

Classic, but why did they keep going to that same place when the monster keep eating up all the prior night's patrons? You'd think the health department would have shut it down.

It was profiled in Iron Chef, though -- they couldn't keep the crowds from coming.

four years pass...
Coming in November... starring Ray Winstone as Beowulf and Crispin Glover as Grendel:

also, Neil Gaiman co-writing, Robert Zemeckis directing (I hope Beowulf doesn't think life is like a box of chocolates).

I think I started a thread on BEOWULF v. GAWAIN and it got about -4 replies.

I liked Beowulf. Haven't read Gawain yet but I think I have to next semester, so I'll find and revive for you then, Abbott.
