I hate when the movie takes forever to reveal a monster AND it still ends up being lame. I don’t mind waiting as the anticipation can be great, but the payoff better be worth it. On the flip side I love silly/low budget costumes, but if that’s all you got then I want your guy in a monkey outfit with a tag clearly visible killing people the whole movie. Don’t make me wait for that garbage.

Case in point I just watched Croaked: Frog Monster From Hell. The monster was pretty much just a guy in a green costume. Nothing special. But we don’t see him fully until about an hour in. LAME!

Not exactly a monster, but the big reveal at the end of Contact was terrible.

The creep in JEEPERS CREEPERS. 
When you finally got a good look at him, it was chilling!
And Samarra crawling out of the TV at the end of THE RING.
That scene gave a lot of people nightmares!

In HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN, Glenn Strange as the Monster just lies on a table for most of the movie. So, you get to see him, but he don't do s**t!
But he looks cool!

the Monster in IT CONQUERED THE WORLD (1956)  had claws and looked like a weird mutant vegetable! Fantastic!
But in the remake ZONTAR, THE THING FROM VENUS (1966) , which was a remake-was awful!
The monster in both films wasn't shown until close to the end, and in ZONTAR- It looked like some middle school kids tried to make a monster with paper mache!

It's not exactly the same thing but here's a really lame Phantom of the Opera unmasking. 



It took me a moment to realize there was even anything wrong with the guy and when I did, it still wasn't that bad.  I've worked with people that were uglier than that.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
