00:00The story is inspired by the true story of the Beast of Gévaudan,
00:03who massacred a hundred women and children between 1764 and 1767 in Lauser.
00:08Of course, all of this was revisited, and in the film, the beast is controlled by a secret organization.
00:13who sows fear in order to overthrow the king.
00:15So this is a little loafer from the 17th century, I'm not going to advertise it.
00:19Yeah, but they're really ripe.
00:20And they will deliver the oars to me, but much later.
00:23There I got this.
00:24They're really ripe, look.
00:24Look at this, for example.
00:25And the least we can say is that the film belongs to its time.
00:34Between incessant slow motion, Kung-Fu shots, Rambo-esque climaxes, and not-so-pretty CGI, it's 2001, basically.
00:40But it is also what gives the film its uniqueness and a certain charm.
00:45Personally, I always really enjoy watching it.
00:47We are always on the edge of ridicule, without ever really going beyond it.
00:50It's quite strong, I think, to make us accept this potpourri of different genres.
00:53It's both funny and epic, both touching and galvanizing.
00:57It is a very ambitious film that has earned its cult status.
01:00And I'm going to end this video by advising you to discover it if you haven't already.
