The 'Bird Box' challenge has taken over the Internet -- and if you haven't seen the Netflix movie by now, what have you been doing?

I watched the flick for the first time this past weekend and thought it was really well done. Sandra Bullock is fantastic, as is John Malkovich.


Spoiler alert -- if you haven't seen the movie, you might not want to read any further. 

I really wished they had shown the monsters that are essentially the biggest past of the movie. Lucky for us, the Bird Box special effects team posted a photo on their Instagram page of what the monsters were supposed to look like. 

The caption says, "The unseen creature from Bird Box created at @knb_efx that was sadly cut from the final film.Andy Bergholtz @andy_bergholtz sculpted and pre-painted the prosthetics. Stephen Prouty @proutyfx went to set and applied the makeup on actor Dirk Rogers @thehalloweendirk.Reposted from the amazing Howard Berger (@hoops511) ''It's always a bit disappointing when so much effort goes into something that ends up in the cutting room floor, but I get it and it's always what is best for the final product" @birdboxmovie @netflixfilm @knb_efx--#makeupeffects #sculpture #birdbox."

It's probably a good thing they left this "monster" out as I feel like it would have been a little underwhelming.

What do you think? Should they have included the monster?
