The Lord Of The Rings' 10 Most Dangerous Monsters

The Lord of the Rings is not the world's most famous high fantasy story for no good reason, bringing more dangerous monsters than one can shake a staff at to literature and cinema since 1954. English high fantasy pioneer J.R.R. Tolkien wrote The Lord of the Rings and had it published in three parts between 1954 and 1955. This inspired Peter Jackson's critically acclaimed Lord of the Rings trilogy, adapting a part of the novel per movie. Thankfully, most of Tolkien's most dangerous monsters actually made it into the movies, given they presented a huge opportunity to inspire awe on-screen.
