I recommend everyone see Pan's Labyrinth. That movie is beast!

What do you mean 'beast'?

I mean it is a very good movie. It's an American thing. Sorry about that.

I'm american and I've never heard anyone say 'beast' before lol.

You're a strange American. Beast is a common word in such cases

America is pretty large country. I doubt all states have the same slang

Beast is like "dope". I have heard it more commonly used to describe athletes who dominate (like Lebron James).

Over here 'beast' tends to describe a ghastly woman haha. She was a beast.

Lol. I've heard hambeast before Cheesy

Oh yeah, I have heard it used in that context before too lol.
