Beowulf

Beowulf, a Geatish hero of immense strength and renown, travels to Denmark at the request of King Hrothgar to confront Grendel — a monstrous creature that has terrorized the Danes' great hall for twelve years. After defeating Grendel with his bare hands, Beowulf must then face Grendel's vengeful mother in her underwater lair. Decades later, as king of the Geats, an aged Beowulf faces one final foe: a dragon whose hoard he has sworn to protect.
