Another popular is the Barong dance, which is more drama than dance. "Lord of the Forest" magic and protector of Balinese villages, the Barong is legendary, Shaggy half-dog , half lion creature, with long hair, great teeth and bulging eyes. It is propelled by two men who maneuver with the capricious and malicious suit to express his fun-loving nature. His opponent is Rangda, the wicked witch who rules the spirits of darkness.
The Barong dance represents the eternal struggle between good and evil. The Barong will be adjusted in its jaws the gamelan, Prance a bit, and enjoy the praise from his supporters, a group of Kris-wielding men. After fierce Rangda appears his long tongue lolling, Baring its fangs threatening, his neck is covered with human entrails. It is not a pretty sight, but, of course, an unforgettable.
