Being an open-minded and tolerant movie fan, or at least trying to be, I believe that good combos and crossbreeding of all genres are possible. Often very difficult, but possible. Mixing a romantic comedy with a monster horror movie? It's not very likely, but sure, why not. What about a mix of rom-com and monster horror, with musical aspirations thrown in? Err, I suppose...
Nope, I must be honest, I didn't like "Your Monster" at all. I thought it was dull, silly, derivative, predictable, not funny, and not nearly featuring enough horror. Then again, it might just not be my thing and I'm not the target audience. At the Brussels' International Film Festival, where the film had its world premiere, it seemed as if there were many people who enjoyed it.
You'd think the film is similar to "Beauty and the Beast", but it's actually much more reminiscent to - believe it or not - "Fight Club". Of course, by mentioning that title I'm already revealing the big twist, but it's really quite obvious throughout the entire movie (but still the reason why I'm adding a spoiler alert).
