Imagine a selection of scenes thrown together in a random order, spiced up with bad acting, bad dialogue and bad effects and crippled by bad dubbing (maybe my DVD version is partially to blame for this) and you can only just begin to appreciate the awfulness of The Beyond. My initial interest in this was the supposed Lovecraft connection - through The Book of Eibon - but I can only imagine the great author spinning in his grave that this name is associated with this mess. Peripheral characters are killed off and forgotten about, nothing is explained and logic is abandoned for the sake of yet another eye-gouging. I wanted to like it, I wanted it to challenge me, but instead I came away feeling cheated.
