"The Beast Within is a muddled and often confusing mess of a horror, with streaks of brilliance slicing through the general mundanity.
The story follows 17 year old Micheal, who is afflicted by a mysterious illness no doctor can cure. The parents know that it could be linked to the mother being savagely attacked 17 years prior and they return to the deep south town where it all happened, only to juggle a cover up conspiracy as well as the frequently violent and erratic outbursts from their son.
It takes a rather long time to get going, and it's the gore which saves this from become just another snoozefest 80's horror"
