In the poem the main beasts name is Grendel, and in the movie the beast is known as the leader of thousands of other beasts. Another difference occurs in the in how the beasts are portrayed. In the poem, Beowulf, the hero is known as Beowulf and has extraordinary strength whereas in the movie, The 13th Warrior, he is known as Buliwyf who has nothing other than regular human strength. The most obvious difference between the two is the name of the heroes and their battling strengths. The many differences throughout the poem and movie include character names, battles, and the way the heroes die.
In both the poem and the movie the theme of good versus evil remains the same, reflecting the values of Anglo Saxons. After reading the poem Beowulf and watching the movie The 13th Warrior, I have found many similarities and a vast variety of differences.
