Out of allegiance to the King Hrothgar the much respected Lord of the Danes Beowulf leads a troop of warriors across the sea to rid a village of the marauding monster.

Beowulf's willingness to kill on behalf of Hrothgar wavers when it becomes clear that the King is more responsible for the troll's rampages than was first apparent. As a soldier Beowulf is unaccustomed to hesitating. His relationship with the mesmerizing witch Selma creates deeper confusion. Swinging his sword at a great stinking beast is no longer such a simple act. Beowulf is a man caught between sides in this great shift his simple code transforming and falling apart before his eyes. Building toward an inevitable and terrible battle this is a tale where vengeance loyalty and mercy powerfully entwine.

Triple bill of feature fantasy adventures. The historical epic 'Beowulf and Grendel' (2005) is based on one of the oldest poems in the English language. King Hrothgar of Denmark (Stellan Skarsgard) murders a troll that has been terrorising his countryside. However, he decides to spare the life of the troll's strange young son, Grendel (Ingvar Sigurdsson), who later becomes a fearsome warrior determined to avenge his father's death. As Grendel begins to slaughter the king's closest confidants, Hrothgar realises that his life is in danger, and he calls upon Beowulf (Gerard Butler) to track down and kill Grendel. As Beowulf searches for the vicious and elusive Grendel, he crosses paths with Selma (Sarah Polley), a beautiful witch whose alliances are divided between Beowulf and his enemy. 'Merlin and the Book of Beasts' (2009) tells a more sinister story of Camelot and Merlin. Camelot has been devastated by a group of monsters set upon destruction after being released by an evil sorcerer who has taken control of the kingdom and destroyed the Round Table. The last remaining knights gather together and decide the only way they can defeat the sorcerer is to enlist the help of the great wizard, Merlin (James Callis). Merlin, however, has become disillusioned and embittered and has retreated to living alone in the woods. Can the knights persuade him to help try to restore Camelot to its former status?
