Since the Silent Era of cinema, monsters like werewolves, vampires, and aliens have given audiences some brilliant movies, with recent movies like Nosferatu and Blumhouse's The Wolf Man delivering some great terror. Using isolation to ramp up the fear, these films offer everything from jump scares to non-stop suspense and paranoia as audiences are left to watch as characters are hunted by creatures of the night.
