There’s something inherently scary about bugs and creepy crawlers before you even apply them to horror. Rationally, they’re so much smaller than us, so we shouldn’t be afraid.

There’s something vastly appealing, on an international scale, about giant monster movies. For nearly as long as film has existed, there’s been massive-sized beasts decimating cities and terrorizing those in its path. Time only proves that you can’t keep a good monster down, as they’ve been resurrected, rebooted, remade, and pitted against each other with
