I read the book and blogged about it here. And the movie was probably not the best story ever told, but it was certainly entertaining. I'm glad I went!
The story was really a condensed version of the book except that Kyle Kingston, the beast, was not made hairy and clawed,, he was made tattooed, thickly scarred, open-looking gashes and slices, and what looked like a mass of bubbling lesions beside his nose.
The advertising poster makes him look fairly decent, you should see him head-on. I'm not a Vanessa Hudgens fan, but she is a really beautiful young lady. Short. Or Alex Pettyfer is pretty tall. Or both. I wonder if there was confusion when Alex and Alex were on the set?
I'm not going to rewrite the ploot, because I did that for the book. I just reread it, and it's not badly written at all, so I'll put the link above and leave it at that. Fun.
