A 16mm anthology of experimental super 8 films by Derek Jarman, Michael Kostiff, Cerith Wyn Evans and John Maybury, with framing footage by Tim Burke of Brion Gysin using a dream machine. Jarman's contribution is a version of his 1977 Art and the Pose (aka Arty the Pose), refilmed at 3fps, with a musical soundtrack. Jarman planned The Dream Machine as a commemoration of William Burroughs and Gysin's 1982 visit to the UK, and received initial funding from the Arts Council in 1983, then rethought the project as a portmanteau film featuring Gysin alone. The production remained in limbo until 1986, when James Mackay obtained completion funding from the British Film Institute. (Since this film was released on VHS accompanied by Jarman's Broken English: Three Songs by Marianne Faithfull, T.G.: Psychic Rally in Heaven and Pirate Tape under the umbrella title The Dream Machine, synopses of this film have often muddled up its details with those of the earlier films. )

A happy couple is driving in an idyllic countryside when the car, after picking up an exhibitionist hitchhiker, breaks down They take refuge from the torrential rain in a sinister manor run by the cruel Luc Lemaitre and his slave Darkskin. Unknown to the three of them, this dilapidated residence is a very special farm where it is not the animals that are being milked but hunks in chains for the aphrodisiac quality of their semen. There will be no escape for our unfortunate travellers once the resident ghost has tasted the purity of their souls.

Beast takes us in the realm of enchantment where nothing is quite what it seems. This is a very grown up fairy tale where the sex can be at once brutal and gentle or vicious and corrupting. Cinematography, lighting, costume, sets and the cast of nine combine to make 'BEAST' a film unlike any other in the genre.
