I have not seen this film, but I do usually get very annoyed when monsters in monster films are not shown enough. There are exceptions, but sometimes sticking with the ‘seeing less makes it more scary’ idea backfires by drawing attention to itself. Cool monsters should be able to be seen as cool monsters, and it needn’t detract any from the fear/story/character study/whatever they put in films these days (which is to say I don’t see many, and don’t expect to see this one).
