January 25, 2014The Beast Within is a fairly strange movie. It begins with a couple's car getting stuck and when the man goes to get help, the woman ends up getting raped by some kind of swamp creature. Seventeen years later, the offspring of that rape starts changing physically and mentally. He turns into that same sort of weird swamp man and starts killing the people in the town. Meanwhile, when the boy is not in swamp thing form, he meets and falls for a girl with an abusive father, and that causes a lot of tension. The movie comes full circle at the end, which I won't spoil for you here. I will say that this is one worth watching for curiosity sake. It never got the attention it probably deserved and, now that Scream Factory has released it on blu-ray, hopefully it will find a new audience to bewilder.
