I love movies with spectacle but spectacle can be a performance, it doesn't have to be a creature.
When I was a kid going into the movies, you weren't force-fed information everywhere you looked about what the movie was going to be.
I'd love to do a movie where the monster is human, where the issue is not otherworldly, or horror or science fiction.
Making movies was more a reaction to not being chosen for sports. Other kids were out there playing at whatever I was off making something blow up and filming it, or making a mould of my sister's head using alginating plaster.
