Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Wrath of Gods is a 2006 of Icelandic documentary by Jon Gustafsson that chronicles the troubled production of the 2005 film Beowulf & Grendel. Following several years of development Sturla Gunnarsson has finally financed his dream project: an epic adaptation of Beowulf to be shot in his homeland of Iceland after a career in Canada. However, as production draws near problems with said financing ends up postponing the filming causing it to eventually start filming in autumn as the weather is getting increasingly worse.At the start of filming Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson, high-priest of the Icelandic Ásatrú Association, is hired to perform a pagan blessing on the film. Within minutes of the blessing Sturla Gunnarsson trips and hits his head on a rock. Not long after, Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson also trips and fractured two rib bones. As filming starts, the cast and crew start to question what they actually might have called down upon the production...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Black Comedy: Sturla Gunnarsson's borderline demented optimism in the face of disasters which in other circumstances would be dramatic gives the film a comedic tone.

Lemony Narrator: Jon Gustafsson's narration is very matter of fact, but there are several occasion were he makes very dry humorous remarks.

Evil Is Not a Toy: At one point a chuckling Gerard Butler recounts Rory McCann's statement that rather than blessing the production, Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson (head of the Icelandic Ásatrú Association) might have accidentally cursed the film. invoked

All for Nothing: Long story short: After all the cast and crew went through, the film ends up a critical and financial failure.
