MODERATORS
Monsters remain scary as long as the audience doesn't know much about them because the imagination is always scarier than the reality. Giving them a backstory was a dumb move, not helped by the writing being absolutely fucking abysmal, but that's always been Ridley Scott's achilles heel. Give him a great script and he's one of the best directors around.
