Plot:	The story of a young American heiress, Lucy Broadhurst, betrothed to the mentally unstable heir to a French aristocratic dynasty. Dark rumors abound about a mystical beast, and on the night of her wedding, Lucy is visited by strange and erotic dreams.
Overview:	"The Beast" is an erotic masterpiece from the most controversial exponent of the genre: Walerian Borowczyk. This sexual fantasia caused outrage when it was first screened in 1975 and was refused a certificate in the UK until 26 years later. A modern-day version of "Beauty And The Beast", "The Beast" is the story of a young American heiress, Lucy Broadhurst, betrothed to the mentally unstable heir to a French aristocratic dynasty. Dark rumors abound about a mystical beast, and on the night of her wedding, Lucy is visited by strange and erotic dreams. Set in a beautiful gothic chateau, the film features hilarious couplings, not so pure clergy, and unwholesome secrets shot in a superb brushstroke style, climaxing in what has to be one of the most erotic--and at the same time hilarious--finales of all time.
