'''Sweaty Beards''' is a 2010 Swedish movie which aims to answer the age-old question of what would happen if you mix [[HornyVikings Vikings]] with Creator/MontyPython and Film/TheKarateKid. Oswald is a fat, cowardly Viking living in 10th century Sweden. He's regularly bullied and abused by his peers for his failings, including his considerably more {{Badass}} brother Sigtrygg. One night, Oswald and Sigtryggs parents are murdered by the evil Finnish warrior, Perset Olale, so Sigtrygg and Oswald decide to seek out the help of [[OldMaster Kolskägg]], to awaken Oswalds latent powers as a [[TheBerserker Berserker]]. [[EpicFail This fails spectacularly]], not only causing Oswald to be outlawed, but leaving Sigtrygg halfdead as well. Oswald has no choice but to flee to Uppland, where he meets up with King Erik Widearm and the Uppland Freedom Army. Will Oswald be able to become a Berserker and reclaim his familys honor in the [[TournamentArc island deathmatch tournament?]]

* {{Badass}}: Perset Olale and Sigtrygg are probably the two straightest examples.
** The documentary filmmaker have earned this title, going through all of the movie [[MadeOfIron with a sword through his stomach]] and still managing to complete his documentary and ''fight Perset'' just for good measure.
** Oswald is a CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass and it takes a while before he weighs over if favor of the latter.

!!This film contains examples of:

* {{Badass}}: Perset Olale and Sigtrygg are probably the two straightest examples.
** The documentary filmmaker have earned this title, going through all of the movie [[MadeOfIron with sword through his stomach]] and still managing to complete his documentary and ''fight Perset'' just for good measure.
** Oswald is a CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass and it takes a while before he weighs over if favor of the latter.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Oswald Swinesmell.
* TheBerserker: Oswald again. we also get to see an unrelated one in the beginning.
* BerserkButton: For Oswald it's indecisive women. Of course, it's a literal BerserkButton for him, causing him to go Berserk and [[spoiler: withstand Persets poisoned knife-blows, thus defeating him.]]
** The documentary filmmaker catches a sword to th midsection from a random Viking because he mentioned Persets name.
* CoversAlwaysLie: You see that cover up there? Hildegunn is a passive love interest in the movie, she never fights. Oswald doesn't wear chainmail, and Sigtrygg is never seen using that giant axe.
* VillainTeleportation: This is Persets entire fighting strategy.
