It's really a preference thing for me. It just feels wrong to attempt to turn an inhuman monster into a romantic anti-hero, at the expense of diminishing the actual heroes. And the whole reincarnation thing just feels silly and ripped off the original Mummy, which did it better, IMO. I'm not even a fan of it when Richard Matheson did it, and I practically revere him as a writer.
Hereditary
Okay, this freaked me out wayyyy more on a second viewing.
