8 Hidden Movie Monsters (And What They Really Look Like)

Of course, we never know what that is, knowing only that they appear as the individuals 'own worst fear' and can be glimpsed in various Lovecraftian shapes drawn by a illustrative mad man. But as you already know from the title of this list - that wasn't always what we were going to get.
Director Susanne Bier was pushed by a producer to film a scene that gave the creatures a tangible look, resulting in Sandra Bullock filming against "a green man with a horrific baby face,” which was revealed in its full glory in an Instagram post by the SFX artist. The idea was for Malorie's personal brand of scares to originate from her pregnancy, but the 'snake-baby' made Bullock laugh far more than it made her fear for her life.
Taking the L, the producers let up and allowed Bier to craft her film with its mysterious entities remaining a secret. Still, knowing what's ACTUALLY haunting the characters on screen is a bit of a boner killer for the scares, despite how well made it is.
