The Beast Must Die (Que la Bete Meure)

Chabrol’s gripping thriller sees a grieving father set out to murder his son’s killer, only to find the moral ground constantly shifting beneath him.

A father whose son has been killed by a hit-and-run driver sets out to identify and murder the culprit, only to find the situation considerably more complicated than revenge usually allows. Cited by Bong Joon Ho as a key influence on Parasite, Chabrol’s gripping thriller pulls the moral rug from beneath audiences’ feet, leaving them, like its protagonist, in a place of deep discomfort.
