it a horror story alright . but perhaps not a you know it . the real monster in this flick be human . while the monster and be human and prey . as weird a that may sound i see this a monster inc for horror film fan . sure and the effect be of a std horror film and the monster be there a in any monster base film and the gore be there as well and there even be a slasher in the shape of dr decker ( play by david cronenberg while i see flash of cillian murphy a dr. jonathan crane in batman begin here or be it the other way round . ) . and it be decker and c who be the bad guy . the monster want mainly to mind their own business and ward off intrusive human more or less misguided and want to join there society . by the end of the film you actually grow to like the quite little monster ( and the dog ) not perhaps what you have expect from the first few scene .
