The Beast Within (1982)
Quite possibly, if not the worst, the most disgusting horror film I’ve seen. A young couple (Ronny Cox, Bibi Besch) traveling thru a small Southern town have their car breakdown. He leaves her alone in the car to get help but she is brutally raped by an unseen attacker. Jump 17 years and their 17 year old “son” is having major medical problems that may kill him. So, they travel back to the small town to find the “father”. What follows is bloody and graphic but filled with such boneheaded characters that can’t seem to add 2 and 2 and come up with 4. The writing, directing and acting are stupendous in their ineptness . When one character goes thru a hideous horrifying physical transformation, does anyone scream? Run for help? Get their asses out of the room? No, they all watch and stare open mouthed! The score is by Les Baxter.
