There is a great story by Kipling your son sure would enjoy: "The Undertakers" from the Second Jungle Book. The main story line is narrated by the man-eating monster crocodile of Mugger-Ghat ...
Not too much splatter but a lot of suspense 
(Kipling's Jungle Book is quite a bit more violent than Disney's. No surprise, I guess!)
Regards,

Now if your son hasen't already seen it, I can recommend "Tremors", one of my favourite monster flicks as a kid. Otherwise get him into the classics such as "Them!" or "Trantula". Both great movies IMO

Both great movies IMO | Thanks for the tips Wildcat. My older sons have been watching the Tremors series for years and they purchased the 4-Disc set last year. I think they ranked the first one with Kevin Bacon as the best.  | |

Somehow, this selection reminds me of the "Calvin and Hobbes" comics ... 
"Tarantula" is a good recommendation ... I like most of the old Jack Arnold films, he's really a master of suspense within the B feature format. Jack Arnold - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He also produced two or three stereoscopic movies, includic the classic "Creature from the Black Lagoon". Creature from the Black Lagoon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wonder if there is a DVD with the stereoscopic version available today ... and how I could view it in stereo!
