I'm at the movie theater because of that KONG: SKULL ISLAND. Below are ten images from ten movies featuring giant monsters. How many of these giant monster movies do you recognize?
2) The Host
3) Gorgo
4) The Mist
5) Godzilla vs Hedora (US: the Smog Monster)
6) Trollhunter
7) War of the Gargantuas
8) Cloverfield
9) Beast from 20,000 Fathoms
10) Tremors

Damn! Just figured it out a bit too late. Dylan gets the point for the toughest one.

I was at an advantage, because there was a time when we only had three VHS tapes, and that was one of them.
I kept looking at the first picture and thinking, "that looks so familiar." As it turns out, it's the front of the library of my alma mater, UNC-Wilmington, where I spent many hours as I pursued my first degree — a B.A. in English, with an emphasis on Classic Literature and a minor in Literary Criticism. Good times, good times. They also filmed portions of KONG LIVES in the old Wilmington Police Station, and at Cape Fear Community College, where I earned some transfer credits to go to UNC-W at the time; they kept the prop signage up for quite some time. FIRESTARTER was filmed in Wilmington, too, and I worked as an extra on that. And they filmed MAXIUMUM OVERDRIVE there, and CAT'S EYE — these last three being Stephen King efforts. The Joker face from that semi was in Wilmington for many years until it started making the movie convention circuit…
Hey! You guys did such an amazing job on this and I got so distracted by King Kong that I forgot to confirm these. Gillig's answer gets all nine…
