If you are into the paranormal, you might recognize some of the enemies. They also have different strengths and weaknesses.
For example, Flatwoods Monster is the largest and has a fairly good amount of HP as well as projectiles that aren't destroyed easily, but its offset by its large size and slow projectiles.
Foo fighters have no attack, but can absorb an immense amount of punishment before yielding. Their primary purpose is to impeded your attacks.
Projectiles behave in three different ways, there are direct, powerful projectiles that can be easily destroyed by your own attacks. Theirs the extremely durable yet slow projectile, that does low damage. And then theres the diagonally traveling St. Elmo's fire, it's homing ability is offset by its low power.
