 The Beast

The "Beast" as Simon explains to us "...maybe it's only us." Later when Simon sees the offering of the head of the Pig to the Beast, he has a "conversation with "The Lord of the Flies" about the evil on the island.  

Read Golding's text and then see how the movie portrays "The Lord of the Flies" message to Simon.
