Monsters Cry!

Who doesn’t like to watch movies? Wait; let me reframe this question – who does not like to watch monster movies? I’m a cinephile so I have to live up to the expectation of it. Agreed that in my lifetime, I may not have seen ALL the movies but I’m quite a movie buff (and that’s just putting it mildly). How can you not love the special effects, the sound effects and best part of it, the imagination!

We are a generation to be blessed with some of the greatest writers, movie makers and actors… at least we are alive in a generation where we know the best of both worlds, win-win, I think so. Monster movies aren't always about the gore. The best kind of weekends though that I personally love, comprise of ordering take out and sit cuddled up for a movie marathon. Quite on the contrary watching monster movies comforts the soul better. You get to choose any monster you want to watch, some who become your favourites and you just end up watching them over and over. I love horror genre as well, there is something very wicked about the supernatural (okay…I might sound a bit meh but hear me out) monster movies can be fun too. I mean a lot of people get scared, get traumatized, hell people even die while watching them. There is a certain charm that monsters have, some are cute, some are grizzly and most definitely hairy but hey who says that they don’t entertain!

Now the best part is that some movies really creep you out and some make you go WHAT THE FUCK in the night (or day) and some are just pure love (like the animated ones). I adore a good plot, to try to figure out just how it will end and usually am bang on. Just to catch a late night show that creeps the hell out of you is bliss!! As I was watching this monster movie I really wished someone would recommend some good movies. So, I decided to write a blog about it to help my fellow monster lovers get some suggestions. I’ll start with the recent ones, thought I really need to explore all the classics.
