While Meg 2: The Trench promises some brand-new creature feature action, its trailer is overflowing with references and easter eggs for earlier monster movies. The monster movie genre has a long and storied history that dates back to the birth of Hollywood. Creature features have been making millions since 1933’s King Kong and director Steven Spielberg’s Jaws is even often called the first modern blockbuster. However, the monster movie’s history doesn’t end there. The $530 million payday that 2018’s The Meg earned at the box office proves that the horror sub-genre is still doing impressive business many decades later, and its upcoming sequel hopes to continue this hot streak.
