What Makes The Creature So Cool?
- The Black Lagoon - It was a big hit way back in the 1950s, and became a classic - you gotta see those black and white classic monster movie remakes, if you haven’t.

- It seems like every monster movie comes back, and Creature from the Black Lagoon looks like it will join that list - now with a touch of James Wan’s brilliance.
So Why Should We Be Hyped For It?
Imagine a horror movie made with a Monster Movie classic - with all that cool Science Fiction vibe and James Wan's approach - the monster movie and the Black Lagoon will be super epic! We're waiting to see who he casts to bring this classic monster back to life.
