Alien is famous for barely showing the monster (mostly because of the shitty costume) so they have it hiding behind stuff or in the shadows and you almost never see the whole thing. Most of the other good movies on that list do the same thing. Ones that show the monster a lot like A Quiet Place are not very good. It's not like a one to one ratio but you can get a good idea of the quality of a horror film by how much they show the creature. <cite>specialkid8 posted [p:927232321] in what does ...
