"Right through to its final moments THERE IS A MONSTER keeps us in this space of tension. For Jack, there has always been a monster, whether anyone else saw it or not. For his loved ones it has been nothing more or less than a rapid, systematic decline of the one they love. The film’s final shot leaves us with Jack’s awareness of both things at once, and perhaps asks us to remember the terror outside ourselves that we can never imagine."
