Christopher Rygh in The Head Hunter (2018)

On the outskirts of a kingdom, a quiet but fierce medieval warrior protects the realm from monsters and the occult. His gruesome collection of heads is missing only one - the monster that killed his daughter years ago. Driven by a thirst for revenge, he travels wild expanses on horseback, using sorcery to aid in his quest. When his second chance arrives, it's in a way far more horrifying than he ever imagined.

Trivia

Goofs
The movie is supposed to be set in a medieval time, yet there is a US Civil War era coffee grinder being used.

-This movie is not set in medieval times, it is in fact a fantasy movie set in another world and there's no reason why in this particular world a similar style of grinder couldn't have been invented.

Solid Suspense Thriller

This movie is cool, just don't go in expecting full blown gory action horror - it's not that at all. It's way more of a slow burn, suspense film. So if that's your thing you'll dig it. Filmmakers did a great job building a gothic, medieval world I hadn't seen on film before. Cinematography and story craft is on point.
