"FUS RO DAH!"
He’s lucky it wasn’t a Draugr Deathlord, it would’ve just been spamming Fos Ro Dah the whole time
First few times he hit me with that, I thought it insta killed me and would just restart the game
*DISARM SHOUT*
or overlord. or the death overlord
[DRAUGR MURDERBOSS DEATHKING INTENSIFIES]
Disarm shout, the absolute worst. Let me try and find my ebony blade on this super dark ground. Should be easy…..
I love that this film had the courage to make this scene and refuse any explanation. It’s simply treated as the potential risk of raiding a grave mound. Amleth is tense and wary of the dead warrior and doesn’t express shock when he rises.
Really adds to the ancient feeling of the story. Sometimes you fight a monster
all very cool, but... if they are there, they never thought that perhaps, the one who beats the dummy, might end up TAKING HIS PLACE?? instead of going away happy with the sword.
Also... I always have a question, in case something like this happens to me or if there is a zombie apocalypse tomorrow: does anyone know if you kill a dead person it is murder? I mean, legally and in religion too.
Just in case, to be able to sleep peacefully.
@@gustavolopez3405 In terms of legality, I'm pretty sure it'd be a cut and dry self defense. Religiously, I'm pretty sure something needs to have a soul for it to be murdered and not butchered.
think of it as a test, if the living warrior defeated the dead warrior then the living warrior would be entitled to the dead one's belongings otherwise if the dead warrior had won he would've taken the head of the living warrior and used it to decorate his tomb which would serve as a warning to future would be adventurers if they failed the trial by combat
@@gustavolopez3405 you just decided to copy paste the shittiest comment you could possibly make?
the best explanation is that Amleth is crazy
This guy never played Skyrim before. Shoot the Draugr with an Arrow headshot while sneaking before he awakes.
yeah these aren't your Daddy's draugr from skyrim lol....
They are also weak to 🔥
Cast a flame spell until that sucker is kindling.
@@Shifty51991 You're right, it's significantly weaker than most skyrim draugr.
Thanks for the tip, never thought of this lol
My jaw dropped when I saw this scene. The attention to detail in terms of material culture is superb.
The undead in this scene is wearing/using kit that is a few hundred years older to the viking age. He looks like a freakin anglo-saxon warrior.
The boar-crested helmet with cheek plates, brows, pressblech embossed designs, and animal motifs. The ringed pommel on the sword with inlaid garnets and pattern-welded blade. The funny pointed shield boss and fittings.
And just the fact that he's been buried in a boat underneath a barrow.
This is easily one of the best looking viking, if not one of the best looking medieval films to ever release.
and too all the dweebs in the comments that think this scene was stolen from other properties, the entire premise for this fight is firmly rooted in/inspired by the old norse sources. This could've been straight out of a saga (if more poetry was involved.)
"Audun implored him not to go down, but Grettir bade him attend to the rope, saying that he meant to find out what it was that dwelt there. Then he descended into the howe. It was very dark and the odour was not pleasant. He began to explore how it was arranged, and found the bones of a horse. Then he knocked against a sort of throne in which he was aware of a man seated. There was much treasure of gold and silver collected together, and a casket under his feet, full of silver. Grettir took all the treasure and went back towards the rope, but on his way he felt himself seized by a strong hand. He left the treasure to close with his aggressor and the two engaged in a merciless struggle. Everything about them was smashed. The howedweller made a ferocious onslaught. Grettir for some time gave way, but found that no holding back was possible. They did not spare each other. Soon they came to the place where the horse's bones were lying, and here they struggled for long, each in turn being brought to his knees. At last it ended in the howedweller falling backwards with a horrible crash, whereupon Audun above bolted from the rope, thinking that Grettir was killed. Grettir then drew his sword Jokulsnaut, cut off the head of the howedweller and laid it between his thighs."
The Saga of Grettir the strong
The only real historical "inaccuracy" is the idea of a Migration Period warrior getting buried in Iceland.
also it’s a damascus sword, no welding involved
@@romanmay2867 Damascus steel and pattern welding are the same thing. And it does involve welding. Forge welding multiple types of steel into a billet.
I consider the term "Damascus steel" to be something of a misnomer. Pattern welding is a more accurate descriptor of the process.
In addition, I think Robert Eggers also openly stated his love for the original Conan the Barbarian film.
I can totally see the “Atlantean tomb” vibes in this scene, aside from there being an actual fight.
Ahh yes , the Ancient Nord Greatsword of Cold. A formidable weapon indeed.
Yes take it boi…we may need it to butter bread 🪓
Psshh, maybe if you were running around with a wooden sword before that...
The Hero descends into the Underworld and retrieves an object of great value, returning transformed. A story literally as old as time.
Yes exactly.
And it works. Don’t mess with classics.
You literally mean figuratively.
The fight might be in his head but, in certain perspective, showcases his resolve and importantly, appropriate strategy he came up if he had to fight the draugr for real.
I love the little details in this scene. Example: at 2:02, Amleth stuffs the mound-dweller's head into his groin, which was a ritual act meant to prevent the spirit from coming back to haunt the living. The outlaw Grettir (in Grettir's Saga, 18) does this after raiding Kar the Old's mound on the island of Haramsøya and fighting with its keeper.
It's referenced in the show Vikings, too, which is how I recognised it. Earl Haraldson's sons were murdered, stripped naked and their heads were severed with their "faces next to their arses", but in the show it was meant as a sign of disrespect.
I thought it was the ancient equivalent to T-bag one’s enemy 😂
all very cool, but... if they are there, they never thought that perhaps, the one who beats the dummy, might end up TAKING HIS PLACE?? instead of going away happy with the sword.
Also... I always have a question, in case something like this happens to me or if there is a zombie apocalypse tomorrow: does anyone know if you kill a dead person it is murder? I mean, legally and in religion too.
Just in case, to be able to sleep peacefully.
@@gustavolopez3405 no bcuz they were already dead. It wouldn’t count as murder
I just remember in the theatre, the incorporeal-feeling rumble as he unsheathed Draugr was bone chilling.
Fun fact: The Draugr or how it is actually called, the "Mound Dweller', is played by Ian Whyte, one of the actors that played the Mountain in Game of Thrones, another actor who played the mountain, Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, also played in this movie, he is the big guy that almost kills Fjolnirs son in that sports game.
This scene was so creative. Everything he feared was just inside his head.
@Primordial Pursuits. Nah. That's interesting, but it's not that. It's the first thing. The whole movie is filled with scenes that "blur" the lines of reality. It has mythological and supernatural stuff take place, but always in a dream, or with context that allows plausible deniability. So the movie isn't actually confirming any supernatural stuff is real, even if it is. Just showing what the characters believe. This scene was a perfect example. The whole fight could be real, or just the symbolic battle he had in his head, to get the sword. And they say they filmed it by panning the camera back, was a great way to do that.
No, he'd fought and won the battle against it but in the ethereal realm.
@@roguerover7598 Like Biggiiful said a lot of it is done in a way that's ambiguous, however, one thing to note is that he couldn't unsheathe the 'enchanted' sword during the day.
@@MegaSeptim I thought he was just doing that as a power move to show he was going to fight without lethal force and to make a statement? Interesting.
@@roguerover7598 Yeah, when he gets captured one of his uncles men tries to unsheathe it too and he cant
Finding a sword in an ancient crypt is a real classic. This story has been popular for thousands of years.
don reba's onto you mate
CROM
because ancient warriors/kings were entombed with their riches. Has been a real thing for thousands of years
Boss defeated
Legendary weapon acquired
Quest complete
Hotel? Trivago
If you pay attention, the draugr only makes one serious attempt at a killing blow (it is, in fact, the final blow it attempts to strike.) This isn't malice, it's a test, to see if Amleth is worthy of the blade it guards.
The retrieval of Odal (loosely, "inherited") objects from ancestral barrows was an integral part of all Germanic cultures. (In fact, the shift in Norse cultures to distant sea raiding meant that a new afterlife had to be conceptualized for defeated warriors whose bodies could not be returned to the barrow, hence Valhalla.) Amleth is, in a sense, claiming his birthright.
Yes, love how the inheritance of past artifacts in order to learn about yourself/ grow is integral here. The Dalai lama is chosen based on which ancient artifacts are familiar to him, this concept seems to be widespread in ancient/ pagan customs
@@harryh4rp4n31 Indeed, every human culture has identified the same core motifs. How "curious" that they have all been forgotten as Abrahamism has spread.
A few years ago I read about a swedish version of the afterlive. It was very interesting because they believed vallhall to be in a mountain in the harz mountains in Germany. The Brocken.
Every dead would go there into the mountain, exept for people who lost their honor. And the fallen heroes would gather in the first hall, vallhall, to guard the entrance against dishonorable dead and giants.
Helheim or hel were not even a concept.
just when you thought Alexander Skarsgard's character was the tallest in the entire cast
Doesn't he fight the mountain later?
A Draugr's size is supernaturally enhanced.
@@poobface4218 yea I’d say he’s the tallest fs
Fjornir is the tallest , he’s 6’4 Amleth is 6’3
@@poobface4218 yes, and I was actually amazed that Alexander even compared to the Mountain's height. Alexander is a big dude, but the Mountain is massive.
I hunger for a real dark fantasy movie so much, this is way too good.
Closest thing to a cinematic skyrim we gonna get.
I must say its fun playing skyrim and meeting a ton of things lifted right out of Norse mythology, when you come from "Nord" lands in real life.
Kudos to the actor at 1:40 for taking that axe like a champ
he doesnt really get hit with an axe. Hollywood has thousands of ways to fool viewers. Its all smoke and mirrors.
This is exactly the opposite of how it went for Conan The Barbarian.
The original short story the Conan movie scene was based on went a lot like this.
Because they didn't have the money/ability to pull off what they wanted.
@@danieldickson8591 Crom!
The Northman was in fact influenced by the Conan: The Barbarian film!
@@ColumbiaBeet Crom!
Draugar have the ability to enter into the dreams of the living, and they will frequently leave a gift behind so that "the living person may be assured of the tangible nature of the visit."
The fight was a dream. That's why it ends the way it does. Very cool detail.
2:05 This is to prevent him from rising from the dead again.
All practical effects. And it was by far more entertaining that any of todays CGI circus films. 10/10 would Conan again.
when i first watched this scene, i was getting so many conan the barbarian vibes
@@isaacbaez8618 In the novelization of the Conan the Barbarian movie screenplay the Atlantean does indeed come to life when he tries to take the sword.
This film has cgi that you don't even notice like many other films do
Sick of hearing this. There is plenty of CGI in this film. Many establishing shots, the volcano, the Valkyrie, the tree of life...
They didn't use cgi here because it was so easy not to.
@@mrhed0nistThat's right. I also read somewhere that it could not be implemented in the Movie because it was not convincingly feasible at that Time.
Buddy’s having trouble getting through whiterun lol
modded run ;p
Requiem lol
Draugr : " oh you thought you were going to take my sword nah boy you're going to have to earn it
Kratos: Takes out Axe: I have no need of it.
Draugr were said to come back if a warrior was cursed, dishonorable, or not burried laying down and having their feet bound. They had a myraid of magical abilities over different stories and sagas, but they did a fairly good rendition in my opinion. It seems this draugr was burried sitting on a throne just waiting for a tomb raider...
There actualy have been found chair sitting tombs in scandinabia resently they just arent as common but wakes with sitting dead was very common up until late 1800s
Everybody talking about Skyrim but nobody talks about the resemblance of this scene when Conan enters the kings tomb and finds Atlantean sword.
Everyone here is a zoomer whos never seen or read conan. Their only reference point is skyrim lol
How about never reading history lmao.... 🤷🏼♂️
@@joeblow1748 lmao nerd
No Arnie noises though.
no one? dude, this thread is full of it
Greatest movie I've seen in a decade. Robert Eggers is truly an auteur.
I remember people laughing in the theater @ 2:03
I want that draugr's kit so badly.
Imagine an apocalypse where the zombies are replaced by draugrs.
Lol have you ever been to norway. On the oldest farms youl to this day still find tar crosses on their doors because of fear of draugr hords. Draugr hords were feared in the nord for hundreds of years.
This movie was NUTS!!! One of the most brutal movies ever. Highly recommend.
It was very weird at times
@@softdrink-0 indeed though norse mythology is really weird so it fits
Was I watching the same movie. We thought it was crap. Boring as hell.
@@Andy.Gledhill.Models. go watch Avengers 8 (or whatever) then
Agreed.
I could never figure out if he really met the last draugr or it's all just a figment of the main characters' deteriorated sanity. Marvellous scene regardless.
That's the point. The whole movie is like that. It's open to interpretation, on purpose. All the supernatural stuff can either be real, or just visualisations of the beliefs of the main character. Movie purposefully blurs the line and doesn't take a side
It’s what he imagined was going to happen. It’s what he feared.
The Lighthouse and The VVitch are also like this. Supernatural stuff clearly happens, but it's open to you
where objective reality ends and the characters perception begins.
I think the idea is that Amleth is crazy
@@DonRoyalX or he really did fought it, and just in a more "spiritual realm" type thing. I imagine spirits can shift time and play with our heads, so maybe he did killed draugr but not in our reality
Now he's just gotta find the lever so he doesn't have to go all the way back to the entrance to leave
Also there should be a chest somewhere
Mooskorta!!Aaaarrrr.
Man, Skyrim mods are really getting realistic.
The combat is still kinda clunky though. Just mash buttons until you break through the shield.
@@Commanderziff he shouldve just gotten a flame atronach, those things are really useful at clearing draugr, especially at low levels like this guy is
I love how moldy old corpses always are super strong amazing fighters.
Norse magic
What an incredible scene
this movie reminded me a lot of conan the barbarian (1982). the gravelly voiced intro narration about the protagonists destiny, destruction of his home as a catalyst to the story, finding an old sword buried with a warrior
theres probably more parallels that im missing
Amazing film - incredible actors, incredible sets and historical accuracy for nearly all the time and the shots are perfect too. I have never loved a medieval film more.
I had to wonder if this was Robert Eggers' shout-out to Robert E. Howard. Conan the Barbarian literally has this moment in his origin story. In the 1980's John Milius film the warrior king's corpse is lifeless, but this scene is practically a reaction of the literary version. I'm not sure if it's based on Norse mythology since Howard based Conan and the Cimmerians on Celts, but it still feels authentic and effective.
i wish the movie had way more of this vibe.
The movie was amazing
I agree but also think the movie was phenomenal. 8.5/10. Only thing was wish there was another fight scene or 2 just because they’re such eye candy all of them.
@@sharpshoota8274 yeah it was. but i felt like the whole farm vinette took too much time and there could have been more episodes and quests fit in.
@@SidewaysBurnouts yes you’re right. I agree with that
dark soul vibe
It’s a shame he forgot to approach the word wall for the shout: Fury of Fenrir. Could’ve been useful at the Gates of Hel
Have never played the series, but my first thought was "Hey, they put a Dark Souls boss in this movie!"
Draugrs in northen myths are immortal, undestructable by both magic, and physical strenght. They could shapeshift and change their size. They also could fly, were tireless and would not stop untill they punnish an offender. Basically an OP creatures whose all purpose was to tell "Do not mess wit fallen warriors stuff
But they won't rise again, if you shove their head up their butt.
A little as same as the scene of Conan , when he finds the sword ... i love it !
0:55: What's the matter, draugr? Can't stand a little light.
They've literally used the Skyrim Draugr Sounds, lol this movie is a golden mine
He should've grabbed the Draugr'z suit of armor :D
This was a great movie too bad good movies go under the radar these days
Way too many superhero movies these days. If they wanna make Action films, make them dirty and scumming!
You saw it. What else matters
Imagine a Dark Souls Movie in this style.
This scene is an obvious reference to „Conan the Barbarian” (1982), when Conan finds the Atlantean Sword in an ancient tomb. God, I love Robert Eggers.
One of the coolest constructs of a film!
The possession of steel in a time of alloyed brass. A true treasure indeed.
This dude is not a vampire to fear garlic nor dullahan to fear gold, these pals can only be subdued by pure smacking....
Brother fought the Montain twice
First as a Dark Souls boss
Second as a Slave in the ball game
This makes me want to play Valheim again.
Or Skyrim game
Man I love Skyrim
There should be a word of power and a treasure chest behind that chair.
This is the most non Skyrim, Skyrim thing ever
Does anyone else imagine this as Uhtred in his pagan burial? A young pup come to challenge him, still sword-strong and intimidating even in death.
Outstanding writing
Wasn't expecting this scene and man my jaw dropped the sword design the Draugr * chef kiss *
I love this its so zelda. Literally seems like something in the shadow temple you have to push to the light .
"They eat what they kill you have to get up"
Two handed skill increased
(Someone telling a Skyrim player they’ll never understand what fighting a drauger is really like)
Do NOT site the deep magic to ME, witch. I was there when it was written
"How it happened" vs. "How the Bards were telling it" in 1 scene. Magnificent.
значит было два...? и оба ... ? оба ! и тебя вылечат ...
Ah yes, the old, stand defenseless in front of your enemy and look stupidly at your broken weapon, trope.
@Nobody I mean, he's not exactly wrong. I think he missed the part where it was all a daydream though.
At least this example of a draugr is actually really terrifying. Can't imagine facing more than one tbh
@@joeshmoe6930 or it could've been some magic guarding the sword.
Even when died he uses a shield effectively
Early levels in skyrim on legendary difficulty with a melee build.
i love how the norse mythology is portrayed as visions and dreams in this film. in this period their wouldn't have been such a thing as atheism, everyone would have been a believer and god fearing. Hamleth keeps seeing mythological visions as he believes in their reality fully and he can't distinguish between that and his actual reality. The viewer however is given the context he is in a dream state.
Even in antiquity atheists existed. There are lots of texts regarding atheism by greek and roman authors.
@Uberwolf fair enough. Faith would have been a part of people's lives in the overwhelming majority then. I guess the idea of atheism would have been in its infancy during the classical period brought about by the 'thinkers' of the day.
God fearing not always. As they understood the gods as living beings, they would try not to anger them. But if they ignored the gods, the gods would ignore them and nobody had to fear anything.
He made him teabag himself.
Came here for the Skyrim comments, not disappointed
Achievement Earned: Direfrost Keep Conqueror
bro obtained the legendary sword Umbra haha
Darker than a DC movie
Conan: The Thing in the Crypt. Man did I geek out when I saw this scene.
I've defeated 1000s of these in Skyrim. It's no biggie.
Normal day in scandinavia. Fighting a 8'6" feet hight tall boi into a cave.
This scene is so cool.
This scene is literally "You can have your cake and eat it, too."
I really wish someone would make a movie that was just straight up Norse mythology like this.
I see the "Conan the Barbarian" influence here very similar with the scene when Conan finds the Atlantean Sword.
Looks pretty good. Wonder why I haven’t heard of it or seen any promo material.
It's not culturally diverse enough. There were like zero African American vikings in this movie.
@@johnnymcblaze accurate
@@johnnymcblaze oh shut it that is absolutely not why it didn’t gain as much attention as it should have.
@@bell.e.flower ..ehh...no..no it was definitely the lack of the uh...Afro-American Vikings in this instance for sure..
Marketing wasn’t that widespread.
I love how this carakter is super historical correkt but at the same time bacikaly is darth vader from behind also.
What Draugr fights SHOULD have been in Skyrim.
Great scene
Didn't Aragorn release this fool from service
I was looking for this comment, thank you. lol
This was its brother.
Norway here, a draugr can be compared to Donnie, in Sunnyvale trailerpark. Lots of noise, not very dangerous.
A jomsviking or a berserker on the other hand..doublewielded axe and mushroomed up👍👍👍
Reminds me of my first Skyrim dungeon
My mind is having trouble reconciling Shakespeare with freaking Skyrim. Like, he's literally Hamlet as in the cliche'ed late-middle-ages-y version from the highschool play I took part once, with the characters in (probably historically inaccurate) satin robes and feathered hats for some reason. But here he is fighting a draugr oozing a vibe that he could fus-ro-dah at any moment. It's so weird, man...
Now this is a real movie!
"No one in this world you can trust, Conan. Not men, not women, not beasts. This you can trust."
Robert Eggers and Dark Souls
When Conan found the atlantean sword in the burial mound
This MC is goated
To best a Draugr, you need to apply destruction magic and keep running from iy
The skyrim references in the comment section got me fus ro dah'ing out of my chair.
I came here solely for the Skyrim jokes down in the comments and I’m not disappointed, thanks my fellow gamers.
Wow, bro actually knows how to kill a draugr 2:01
I really liked other Eggers movies (especially the Lighthouse), but Northman was something... bizzare
What the Draugr are like for _non-Dragonborn_ folks.
Old warrior was a giant tho, no wonder nobody could kill it
bro was guarding the stamford bridge
