I'm reminded of how great Jeepers Creepers was until the campy monster reveal as an example of how movies often show too much or design their monsters in a way that stops the build up of that critical tension that is necessary in a great horror film. I've not seen all of Nope, but what I have seen continues to ratchet up the tension because, frankly...what the hell is that thing. Creating something so unfamiliar helps keep things going. It's one of the reasons I haven't seen it--i feel like it would fuck me up something awful.

Yea that’s the feeling I had as well, it was an uncomfortable watch.
