The creations of ufersia learned on how to go to one planet to another and always trying to eat, kill and invade each other and Arathus did not like it so he destroyed them all, leaving Humans behind.

One main similarity between the movie and the story (and probably the most important) is the element of an epic hero whom dies after saving his people. In the movie, Bulvine is cut with a poisonous claw by Grendel’s mom, shortly before decapitating her. He is able to fight one more battle against Grendel’s tribe, and then dies after winning the combat from the venom. In the poem, translated by Seamus Heaney, Beowulf dies after slaying a dragon from a lethal, dragon-bite to the neck. Even though the movie is based on the story of Beowulf, The Thirteenth Warrior still leaves a few events out and adds some occurrences.
Men and women would often wear the same makeups in ancient Egypt, and Babylon. However, in Greece the women were the main users of makeup. Ancient makeups were not safe and men and women put their lives in danger by using these products such as mercury, lead and other harmful chemicals. Women just didn’t seem to care; they used burnt matches to darken eyes, berries to stain their lips and young boys' urine to fade their freckles.

Back in 2nd grade most of my generation thought of vampires to be scary creatures that lived in the dark and sucked blood of any human they could to stay young. Fast forward to 2010 and you get over a million teenage girls screaming the name Edward during nonsense vampire movies. The way we view vampires has changed drastically over time. Thomas Foster states that these blood sucking demons such as Dracula are evil and that evil has everything to do with sex. (Foster 16) Although in many cases evil does have to do with sex such as rape, I don’t believe it has everything to do with sex.
Monster is a film that was released in 2003 . Patty Jenkis wrote this movie, and it was based on the true story of Aileen Carol Wuornos, a prostitute who was sentenced to death by the state of Florida after killing seven men in the early 1980’s. Although probably biased, the story forces the audience to engage and actually sympathize for Wuornos and her decision to take justice into her own hands. Oscar winner Charlize Theron shocks the audience both with her appearance and her performance. This film, primarily Charlize Theron, has received quite a bit of attention lately.
Every villain has a reason to why they become wicked in the first place. The Evil Queen makes many appearances in different stories for example the show Once Upon a Time or basically anything Disney related. The Evil Queen wasn’t always as bitter as she is commonly known for. It’s impossible for someone to just be born angry and bitter, something had to cause it. In the Disney book, My side of the Story: Snow White/Evil Queen, The Queen marries someone whom she does not love at all just for the title of becoming the Queen of all the land.
As one of the few gods to be married of the Greek Pantheon she is frequently unfaithful to her husband. Hephaestus is one of the most even-tempered and humorless of the Hellenic Deities. Of her many lovers Aphrodite preferred Ares, the volatile god of war as she was attracted to his violent nature according to the narrative embedded in the Odyssey. She is one of a few characters who played a major part in the original cause of the Trojan War itself: not only did she offer Helen of Troy to Paris, but the abduction was accomplished when Paris, seeing Helen for the first time, was inflamed with desire to have her—which is Aphrodite's realm. In the novel The Golden Ass, Lucius Apuleius written in the second century A.D , Aphrodite poses as a secondary character in the Tale of Eros and Psyche.
