Im talking about the scenes where his mouth opens and he has like 100s of teeth, etc. And just because hes humanoid doesnt make him human. He definitely has more of an animalistic nature.

Which is part of why Id argue zombie films kind of count as well.

Also, you guys cant just brush off great films like A Quiet Place (95% on RT) because you personally didnt care for them lol >.>

I'd argue that A Quiet Place's popularity hinges on it not being scary. If it was, most people wouldn't watch it. Also, the idea of a family struggle is very appealing to the masses. You've got a character for every type of person to identify with. On top of that John Krasinksi and Emily Blunt portray the characters extremely well and most of that is because it isn't acting, they really do feel that way about eachother.
I love the idea of the monster, but it would be much more terrifying if you never saw them, or they were just an incredibly fast blur like when the kid gets killed in the opening.

One of my biggest personal gripes with that movie though, is the basement scene. Sound travels better through water than it does through air. You're telling me that these things that can supposedly hear a person's heartbeat wouldn't be able to hear it, or at least her walking, through the water? C'mon. But that's neither here nor there.

Take Signs as an example. Very similar, very popular, movie. When the monster is finally shown it is in a triumphant moment. It's when you're meant to realize that the monster isn't scary, and isn't a threat, that it's finally revealed. Everything leading up to that is tense as fuck.
