Ten-year-old Willow follows her parents on one of their secret late-night treks to the heart of an ancient forest. After witnessing her father undergo a terrible transformation, she too becomes ensnared by the dark ancestral secret that they've so desperately tried to conceal.
_The Beast Within_ is a film about a family struggling with a dark secret first and a horror movie second. The film prioritizes an unsettling environment and powerful performances over a high body count and full-on creature reveal. It’s a worthwhile watch if you enjoy films with a slow buildup, but may leave those hankering for straightforward bloody horror hungry and drooling for more.
