Jaws is definitely a horror film - even a sci-fi/horror film - A big monstrous inhuman creature from the unknown comes for us. From The Creature to Them - it’s the same paradigm. Jaws took something that was always kind of scary but relatively known - they blew it up and made it very scary and very unknown. Made us afraid of our shadow. And that’s what monster makers do.
