Pierre Coffin tells us what inspired ‘MINIONS & MONSTERS’ to bring the Minions into the world of classic monster movies and early Hollywood filmmaking: “Chris Meledandri pitches me the idea of minions wanting to make a movie, wanting to make a monster movie, and for that they need to create a monster, summon a monster, build a monster, and then obviously that monster turns against the minions, against the Earth, against the universe, and they have to save everyone and correct their mistake. And from that moment onwards, as he was pitching out the ideas, I had the whole movie in my head.”

Inspired by 1950s monster movies, Ron Underwood brought that classic creature-feature spirit to Tremors. The film combines classic monster movie suspense with charming humor, creating a work that is both dramatic and entertaining, and has become a "cult classic" of the modern monster movie genre. 🎬 Tremors (1990)

Still to this day one of the most terrifying depictions of a megalodon. And yet, it was still portrayed as a curious animal rather than a monster.

frankenstein's creature was never the monster of the story. he merely reflected what was most human: loneliness, pain, and the desperate desire to be accepted.

In THE GATE (1987), every effect you see is practical. The transformation of the corpse into swarming miniature creatures was brought to life through a mix of forced perspective, stop-motion animation, performers in creature suits, and expertly crafted editing.

This is how the Merged Monster movement in Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil Movie came to be 🧟‍♂️ Jakub Hudlický, the production’s motion coordinator, shared the details following the film’s theatrical release. In July 2025, he brought together teams of stunt performers and circus artists to research and design how the so-called “Merged Monster” would move. Although the version that appears in theaters is CGI, the rehearsals served as a foundation: the movements explored by the performers were used as a reference to define the digital creature’s behavior and expression. Only the large monster that appears in the sewer had a practical design on set. "Not in the final movie, but the movement kinda mimics how the CGI creature moves 🤭 It was so much fun exploring it!" explained Hudlický. The team spent weeks exploring poses, movements, and dynamics to give the enemy its own personality. Hudlický highlighted the experience of collaborating with director Zach Cregger and thanked the production and casting teams for their trust. #ResidentEvil #ZachCregger #ResidentEvilMovie #REBHFun

The tragedy of The Thing (2011) is that the production built incredible practical creature effects… and the studio later covered many of them with CGI in post. The result ended up looking far worse than the original practical work ever did.

David Bowie performing 'Under Pressure' live at TopPop in 1996. Bowie was one of a kind musician with his humbleness and incredible works he produced over the years. Under Pressure was released as a single in 1981 and it was produced with the collaboration of Bowie and Queen. When you think of that year and this awesome collaboration, you can understand what kind of a masterpiece is this.

Nothing else to do I'll be watching The Monster that Challenged the World (1957). Another one of those '50s big monster movies and one of the most brutal.

MYSTERIOUS CREATURE IN TEXAS LEAVES WOMAN TERRIFIED! A woman in Texas says she was left terrified after repeatedly seeing a strange, tiny creature outside her home. She claims the creature appeared to be only about the size of a rat—but strangely, its body and face reminded her of her son, who had been missing for years. At first, she thought it was just an animal.
