Unrated, 1989
Tim Robbins is a gentle Viking who is tired of the constant fighting in the Age of Ragnarok and wants to see the sun again, so he seeks the advice of Freya. She tells him to journey to Valhalla and awaken the gods. Written and directed by Terry Jones, this story was very funny and interesting, with unexpected twists and turns. We gave it ★★★★
"Werewolf: The Beast Among Us" with Steven Bauer, Nia Peeples, Stephen Rea, Ed Quinn, Rachel DiPillo, Ana Ularu, Adam Croasdell, Guy Wilson, Zoltan Butuc
Unrated and 'way too gory for kids, 2012
A town somewhere in Romania is plagued by a werewolf until an intrepid band of werewolf hunters arrive to kill it. But the werewolf is much more powerful and intelligent than most. His human identity is a mystery as well. This was the most realistically gory movie I've ever seen, with real-looking body parts and entrails strewn all over every "morning" during the three-day wax and wane of the full moon. The story was excellent, and we gave it ★★★★
