What was the old viking (IF it's a viking flick, since I don't remember almost anything about it) movie with Rutger Hauer where he dies at the end and exclaims "Odin, I'm coming to you!" as he draws his last breath and raises his sword in the sky?
Tried to look it up, but no search engine gives definite answer. At first I thought it's Ladyhawke, but Rutger Hauer's character in that doesn't die at the end.

Also, what's the old viking movie or TV series about some vikings sailing/traveling through the semi-mythical world, presented like a fantasy movie, with them reaching "end of the world" at a point and it is a literal flatearther'esque "end of the world" where ocean water sharply drops like a waterfall into nothingness? I don't remember much about that, other than it had probably had Jormungandr and Yggdrasil in it, and that sailing vikings were orienting by stars and constellations at a point. I think it was either a 80's or 90's movie/series.

Also, I'm not completely sure it's "Erik the Viking" that I'm looking for, because, the one I saw, had definitely a scene where they were sailing very slowly at a complete nighttime, they were looking at stars and constellations, and when they approached the "end of the world" it was a very slow paced, nearly picturesque scene, not in a daytime as shown in "Erik the Viking" and not as frantic or slapstick. I don't even think that the one I saw, was much of a comedy, but just a fantasy adventure movie.

Also, maybe I've mistaken Rudger Hauer with some other actor? Which was the viking movie where a dude gets stabbed at the very end and then proclaimed "Odin, I'm coming to you!" while raising his sword above his head, before dying? If I recall correctly, it was the last scene of the movie and it was at the top of some tower in a castle, or something.

Absolutely definitely not, because there was no "Odin" mentions in that and it's not about viking themes at all. The movie I'm looking for had explicitly a fight scene at it's end where the "baddie" was a viking that proclaimed "Odin, I'm coming to you!" and raised his sword above head (pointing at Valhalla) before dying, which is a viking gesture. But I'm not even sure that the entire movie was about vikings.

The ending scene seems very much like one, but he merely exclaims "Odin!" in that. Maybe I'm misremembering things, I dunno, but it always seemed to me that the full quote was "Odin, I'm coming to you!", and the clothes he was wearing were much darker, mostly black. Saying "Odin" before dying was a common gesture for vikings, so I think there is a possibility that several different movies pulled this thing, not just Kirk Douglas' Vikings.

Either way, what about the other one? Does anyone have any ideas what it might be, if not "Erik the Viking"? Or maybe I'm also misremembering things heavily and it IS "Erik the Viking"?
