“It’s okay… don’t be scared… I am a monster.” Well Go USA has revealed the trailer for an indie horror film titled The Beast Within, made by British filmmaker Alexander J. Farrell. Not to be confused with the cult horror film also titled The Beast Within from 1982. This new one is premiering at the 2024 Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal this summer. It is told through the eyes of a 10-year-old girl, as she begins to question her unusual life in her family’s fortified compound in rural England. Willow follows her parents on one of their secret late-night treks to the heart of the ancient forest. But upon witnessing her father undergo a terrible transformation, she too becomes ensnared by the dark ancestral secret they’ve tried so desperately to conceal. This stars Kit Harington, Ashleigh Cummings, Caoilinn Springall (seen in Stopmotion), and James Cosmo. It’s obvious he’s a werewolf, though this really seems to be about the werewolf’s family.

Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Alexander J. Farrell’s film The Beast Within, from YouTube:
