For much of the runtime, Baugh takes a less is more approach to his monster. It makes the moments it does appear pop onscreen and lends a mysterious quality, but most of all, it leaves you wanting more, not necessarily in a good way. The third act delivers plenty of bloodshed and monster mayhem, but much of the narrative is occupied by Eugene navigating familial pressure and its effect on his friendships. That may give more robust character arcs, but it also means we’re left with a horror-comedy that doesn’t contain as much horror or comedy as it should.
