10 Body Horror Movie Fates Worse Than Death
10. The Beach House - Becoming Human Slop
2019’s The Beach House was the directorial debut for Jeffrey Brown, and he wasted no time in getting stuck into a bit of body horror.
Whilst on holiday staying in a beachfront villa, two couples fall victim to a toxic fog that descends in the night.
On inhaling the fog, you slowly become rabid. At first we see the older woman of the group descend into madness, foaming at the mouth. This, however, is not the worst of it - she has yet to descend into a much worse state.
After the younger couple, Emily and Randal, manage to escape, they find refuge in a house where Emily scrambles to keep her boyfriend alive.
On venturing into the basement, she sees what is to become one day of those who are taken by the fog. An amorphous humanoid blob crouches over a corpse, slowly devouring it... or maybe becoming one with it?
Gradually becoming mad and rabid and then melting into a blob of cannibalistic goo definitely has to be up there with one of the worst ways to live out your days.
