Yes, and it's tough to be truly shocking. If it's in any way reptilian, everyone will just say "Oh, it's another Godzilla.". If it's humanoid (e.g., the long missing and now mutated Noriko Yoshida), then it's just a variation on "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman". An alien? Been done. Of course, you could apply variations to these themes that might make them truly shocking and unexpected, so who knows?


Or a hybrid monster, involving all those elements you just mentioned. Being a hybrid, there's a lot of room for creativity, and even rendering it something not quite familiar.

I can't think of anything unexpected or shocking, or it wouldn't be a shock!

Hope you can post that for us! I'd go and do it myself but that's not a good enough reason by society's standards to go into a woman's bathroom Laughing

Need I go back to some of the key words on the movie rating?

If I'm not mistaken, it says "TERROR, violence, and DISTURBING IMAGES."

I hope this thing is seriously freaky and disgusting looking... Very Happy

 		All hail the Hypno-Donkey!!

I'm not going to speculate about what the monster could be - I want to leave that part a surprise. There's only a couple more weeks to go, I think I can wait....but glad I know some of the backstory - that should be interesting to see how that plays out in the movie. I can't wait for the pieces of the puzzle to finally come together. But what if it doesn't? Guess we'll have to wait until the sequel - hopefully, not handheld - that would be overkill...
