A 1986 Horror Film from Britain, ''Rawhead Rex'' dealt with a Medieval curse brought back to life with horrible results. Created by Middle Ages black magic, Rawhead Rex was made to fight Anglo-Saxon invaders in the 10th Century. 8 feet tall, the creature was part human and part demon (it's head was 2 times as large as normal and somewhat boar like. Possessed of superhuman strength, Rawhead could cleave 2 warriors with a single blow. Literally unstoppable, Rawhead was tricked and sealed in a cave (for hundreds upon hundreds of years). A freak storm releases the ancient terror. Rawhead also has the power to control others with his mind. Rawhead is eventually trapped again in a rock slide and buried again (he is immortal, after all). Originally, the story was a chapter of horror Writer Clive Barker's Books of Blood (published in 1984).
