So many of the classic descriptions of the creature Grendel
feature so litle actual detail. The aesthetic of many people I
have worked with has ranged greatly but this project definitely
tested the tastes and desires of nearly everyone involved.

I confess that all I wanted was to do something different. There
were already a few other modern interpretations of this story in
the works or finished. This included a massive budget all CGI
version by Robert Zemekis and at least one other live action
production.

Knowing this I felt there were some very nervous people in the
production and in the end there were some important
compromises. I don't necessarily think this design is better
than the one we ended up with. Essentially it's face and feet
are the major differences.
