Giant beast films
Monster movies are films featuring creatures—giant, supernatural, or monstrous—as central threats or attractions.
The genre spans from classic Universal horror Frankenstein, Dracula to giant creature films Godzilla, King Kong to modern CGI spectacles.
Monster movies often explore themes of nature's revenge, scientific hubris, or primal fear: We stayed up late watching monster movies.
