That's the trick to monster movies. They're only out there to show the sheep in the theater seats what they're supposed to recoil away from. Ugliness, monstrousness... There's a monster in all of us, Basil. If it's in me, you can be damn sure it's in you, too. And you can never let anyone see it. Do you understand? You only show them your best face, no matter how false it seems. Because dammit, I promise you, boy... people might pretend at the movies... but nobody really loves a monster.
