inhuman
Beyond cruel behavior
Inhuman describes behavior or conditions so cruel, cold, or extreme as to seem beyond normal human capacity—either for brutality or endurance: The prisoners suffered inhuman treatment.
It can also mean lacking human qualities entirely: The figure moved with inhuman speed.
Where inhumane emphasizes cruelty toward others, inhuman suggests something alien to human nature itself.
