Legendary creature

could just become a fantasy film. I have chosen to focus on Count Orlok, Xenomorph and Pale Man. This report might not represent another type of monsters. Authors and Audience Screenwriters created those monsters or recreated based on legendary creatures. Then, those monsters will visualize by director, screenwriters, sculptor, painter and set designer. The audience is people who watch the film. The usual age for the audience of those horror movies is between 15 and 25 years old. Under 18…

Mr. Webster defines loyal as “having or showing complete and constant support for someone or something.” (Webster) Perhaps one of the most legendary stories of loyalty is that of Noah, whose story is told in the Old Testament of the Bible. Watership Down, a novel written by Richard Adams, is the story of two brothers whose loyalty to one another rivals that of Noah to God. Watership Down is a novel steeped in traditions and values, perhaps the most prominent of which is loyalty. Throughout the…

Grendel’s mom, and a dragon. Throughout the poem, Beowulf expresses bravery and courage to fight such demonizing monsters. Beowulf has special abilities that enable him to accomplish tasks that no other human man could possibly do. For this reason, his legendary name is known throughout the word as one of the best warriors ever to step foot on this Earth. Not only do they say he is the best, but they have proof that he is the best and partially because Beowulf always fought alone and with no…

times, it was “pleasant for people there, until finally one, a fiend out of hell, began to work his evil in the world” (Heaney 99-101). The creature-like imagery of the phrase “fiend out of hell” elicits the feeling that the “evil” in their world was considered the monster at hand, and nothing else. The evil of that time only consisted of the monsters and creatures that were beaten physically, and that was it. Today, “physical courage is not the only component of heroism. Those who exhibit moral…

humans, hybrids, and splices. This indicates that the movie producers wanted to figure out what a society would look like if they took human DNA and combined it with the DNA of animals. The two main creatures that are shown throughout the movie are the Sargorns which are giant winged lizard creatures, and the Keepers which are smaller, shorter, and more classic alien-looking species. This movie also contains some very high-tech weapons, spaceships, and medical advancements that should be…

Jeffrey Cohen is a professor of English and Director of Medieval and Early Modern Studies Institute. He specializes in many areas of research but he is famed for exploring monster; a subject that we will be looking at in this paper. I will be focusing on one of his seven theses of the monster culture by supporting his position with evidence from three different sources. In his work, 'Monster Culture,' Jeffrey Jerome Cohen introduces a new way of studying monsters in the context of the cultures…

Films such as the 1981 Clash of the Titans and its sequels have many different mythological characters and creatures in their films. A modern example would be the 2004 rendition of Troy , which stars Brad Pitt as Achilles. The film is a retelling of Homer’s The Illiad and the battle for Troy, which makes it a mythological movie. The film has many characters from…

Most people believe “El Chupacabra” is a myth while others don't. Although many have claimed that they have seen it, they don’t have proof. It may just be some stray dog, or canine-type creature. One of the pieces of evidence goes something like this "It can change colors at will, has a hairy, reptilian body with spines all along its back and an obsession with blood. El Chupacabra translated into English means "the goat-sucker," because that's exactly what it does. El Chupacabra made its first…

The setting of a poem often carries as much significance as the events in the poem itself do in regard to theme. Many poems, including “La Belle Dame Sans Merci” by John Keats, and the Ex-Basketball Player” by John Updike, cannot be fully analyzed or understood without this critical element. * * * Keats’ uses vivid imagery to reinforce his theme of the dangerous and dream-like nature of love and women. The poem begins as the knight is “alone and palely loitering,” seemingly lost after his…

To some extent, the whole project functions as a modern mural memorizing the adventurous experiences and heroic deeds from the birth to death of this legendary founder. As Zeus occupies a dominant position in the great frieze of the exterior room, Telephos are the central figure of the corresponding, smaller frieze, since he is believed to be the son of Heracles (Scholl 44). To some extent, the Olympian…
