Beowulf: Final Project

Introduction
The book we read was Beowulf set in the year 450 A.D. and it’s a story about King Hrothgar who is cursed by demons of hell. They came during the night. One is called Grendel he is greedy for mans flesh and blood. His mother is to feared to be named. The she-evil is demon snake that is black as jet. His father is a non-demon. His name is Cain the son of Adam & Eve who kill his brother Abel. When Beowulf heard about the tell of the murderess demon Grendel in the land of the Geats he said that he will go to the land of the Danes to kill this demon and send it back to hell. Once we were done with the book we watch two movies. One was the 13th warrior which was a movie based on Beowulf. The second movie we watched was Beowulf: Directors Cut.

The Better Movie
I personal preferred Beowulf: Directors Cut because it fallowed the story line and plot very well. There were some similarities that were same between the book version on and the poem version for ex. In the poem version unferth gives Beowulf his sword. Some of the characters were how I image them. And the setting was pretty accurate. If I were you, I would read the poem version for the simple fact that you will see more similarities with that version than you do with the book version.
