What happens

Het Beest (The Beast) is a 1982 Belgian/Dutch film, made by Flemish writer/director Paul Collet and starring Willem Ruis. For Ruis, who was at the height of his career as a showman and presenter on Dutch television, it was his first and last appearance in cinema. The movie was a flop. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
