Inside the story of The Beast
At its core, The Beast follows a story that unfolds like this: The head of a failing French family thinks that fate has smiled down on him when the daughter of a wealthy man agrees to be married to his son. The daughter and her aunt then travel out to the French countryside to meet with the family, unaware that a mysterious 'beast' is stalking the vicinity.
What sets it apart is how it treats its drama, fantasy, horror, and romance elements not as decoration but as the engine of the plot. The tagline — "Just About The Most Outrageous Erotic Fantasy Ever Committed To Film." — captures that tone perfectly. For a frame-by-frame breakdown, the dedicated Wikipedia entry and IMDb trivia pages are excellent companions.
