Bog Creatures (2003)

 

A professor has a breakdown after he’s roundly laughed at for his  theory bog people are not Christian peasants, but evil Viking berserkers.  He enlists five students who’ve been kicked out of college to go on a dig in the bog.  Well that should help his credibility. He gives them maps and instructions on where they should dig.

Max, who has worked with the professor for years, thinks he’s an idiot. He doesn’t like being out near the castle and the bog because it always feels like someone else is there. Also how did they not find the bog people in all the years he worked there when they are only several inches below the surface? 

There are flashbacks to swords and castles and I think someone was  wearing jeans in the Viking times.  

Ridiculous dialogue:

Susie is gone and we all loved her but she’s gone and we have to accept that. 

What I want is for you to send as many men as you can possible muscle up to Valborg Castle immediately. Because people are being murdered…. How do I know? I know because I am a scientist and it is my job to know.

He reminds me of a pencil with an eraser on it
