Pretty much. The ending very much gave the impression of the monster being a fugitive on the run from the authorities (Frankenstien).

Been reading through Needful Things by Stephen King for spooky season. Made it about halfway through so far, and its been an interesting read. Does a rather detailed job of looking at how interconnected small towns can be, and how minor events can cascade into larger more disasterous ones. Also takes a hard look at obsession, and the lengths people will go to in order to get (and keep) what they're obsessed with. Granted there's some supernatural persuasion at work feeding the obsessions, but it does make for some good food for thought to ruminated on what am I obsessed with myself, and where do I draw my lines.
