I don't know if there's a better term for this, but: stats for movie monsters, or creatures inspired by movie monsters, that are 'giant monsters', but not the full kaiju thousands-of-tons scale. Things like King Kong, the critter from The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, the oversized prehistoric crocodiles in various direct to video or B-movies, etc.
