Introducing The Real Cloverfield Monster…

yep, that’s him all right. just saw the movie yesterday.

Ok, if you are suseptible to motion sickness, don’t sit too close to the screen in the theatre - I had to leave to “get some air” (ok I vomited) and when I came back had to sit in the farthest row in the back - the motion from the camera did me in. . . . but wow what an interesting movie. . .

is that really him a giant spider thing?It would be cooler if it
was that whale thing with 6 arms and a wicked tail.

i havent seen the movie yet but im going to pretty soon.

that is the cloverfeild monster the things coming out of his head are air breathers b/c it is a sea monster from an deep ocean trench so its like a lung fish. the monster has little minis of him and they look like the warrior bug in Starship troopers. Yet the monster looks like godzilla its not b/c i think its a shape shifting monster it was a dinosaur in one part then a Lizzard like Godzilla then a spider than a dog than a creature from some b-movie like WTF!!!! its like alien from the deep!!!

Yep, I knew it would be insect in origin since we have big lizards (Godzill and gamora) and huge mamals (King kong). Thats what I wouldve done. Havent seen the movie yet tho.

I thought it was a sea monster but at end it looked like something fell into the water(when they were at coney island).

Just heard that this movie is part of a bigger thing. This one features the “blair witch” theme of perspective and the sequel will show the directors “feature film” perspective that shows it to be multiple monsters.

yea it was a meteor from outer space and i think thats what woke up the sea monster or open a ocean trench which it could escape from. it like the Kraken.

o.k if u think this thing is from the deeps of the sea or a creature from this planet u are retarted, when have u ever heard of a creature from earth evoluting in a matter of hours and not only that it has the powers to mutate what it bites, wow. it is obviously somthing from another planet or solar system but the movie was badass and leavs u wanting more but yea.

That is it. Just saw the movie.

Hope you don’t get motion sickness. The Camera bouces around alot.
Lots of blood. I was suprised it was only pg-13 , I thought I was watching a rated R movie.

This is the part at the end, seconds before the camera dude gets eaten.

wait i just saw the movie and there was the giant monster and then there was it’s little baby things, and if im not mistaken that picture is one of the Mini monsters isn’t it? The big one looked different…

The monster(s) is/are definitley from the earth. The object seen falling from the sky into the ocean is a piece of satellite from the fictional company that produces Slusho. This piece of satellite is said to have awakened the monster(s) which have also been speculated to be the founder of slusho! who drank excessive amounts of Slusho! and has now been mutated due to the secret ingredient found in Slusho! harvested from the depths of the ocean. It is also a potential theory that the monster is actually multiple monsters attacking the city due to variations in the monsters appearance (3 claws vs 5 claws) and location issues as to how the monster could be in multiple locations so fast (The best example of this theory would be when they are on the bridge and it is attacked and destruction is still occurring in mid-town manhattan.

Dude THAT MONSTER IS BEAST HE COULD KICK GODZILLA’S ASS ANYWAY OF THE WEEK

is that really it? what is it a praymantis

I am mad!!!!I grew up on science fiction movies…I even rent what I would call “c” rate movies from the video store, but I am still trying to figure out what I just paid good money to see in the movie Cloverfield. I would consider it amateur at best. I have not felt this ripped off since I rented some low budget 60’s film. And what does the title have to do with anything? Does anyone know?…I think they were trying to make a quick buck on this one….seriously….yes the new Star Trek movie trailer looks great…where can I get a refund for Cloverfield???

Yes this is one of the Cloverfield monsters, but there is also a much larger one with a longer snout, it is seen getting bombed on before the helicopter crashes.

OMG!!
this movie totally disappointed me.
I only spent $2 to see it at the movie theater.
and I still think it was a waste of money.
I don’t get where the monster came from.
Ugh that movie was so confusing and someone has no idea how to hold a camera. Even when they weren’t running, the camera was still all over the place. I know they wanted it to look real, but come on!! I’ve never heard it being so silent in a movie theater after the movie…

What!!!! i can’t believe this is the monster. It’s all bony and ugly and stuff. i was hoping for it to be like a reptile kind of alien kind of thing oh well i geuss i will just have 2c the movie to check out the other monsters

Thats definitely the real monster as seen on screen. But what a disappointment that entire movie was.

The whole point is to not know anything about the creature. King Kong everyone knew where it came from, Godzilla everyone knew how it was created, Cloverfield is supposed to show what it would be like from the prospective of the random innocent bystander when the crap hits the fan.

whoooaaaaaaa!!!! it’s cool! haha
I still have yet to see the movie. hahaha
I now know what it looks like, and, thanks for the motion sickness tips……I don’t get it, but some of my friends do, and, yeah. lol….

The small creatures were not his off-spring or anything like the big one.

He actually scratched his back on a building and a bunch flew off.

The were like fleas to him.

I think this creature looks weird man.I looks like Godzilla&King Kong had a baby.Some sort of Dino Monkey Spider thing.Anyway the movie was Awesome.I saw it yesturday.I wish it was alittle longer&I would have like to seen more scenes with those spiders like parasites.But its a good movie worth the admitions price.

Have any body seen THe Host? This is a big spin on it but the same none the less. Look it up. It’s a fun movie. The Host.

the Host and Cloverfield are two very different movies man! I thought the Host was a very good show which show cased a family of squabbling misfits who inevitably bonded together in times of crisis to confront the monster. You can actually feel for the characters and their desperate attempts to find the young girl. there was some light humour in between, and emotional bits too. the monster wasn’t so much the Host, but the govt which was blatently lying and seizing materialistic opportunities from the creature’s appearance. there’s slight criticism of foreigners interfering with local issues.

Cloverfield on the other hand, was like a Godzilla movie with a Blair Witch camera man. no story whatsoever, just running and running. The cinema goers were laughing at many parts, like when the impaled girlfriend came back to life, and when the emopunk girl exploded into a bloody mess. towards the end, pple were laughing at the bug-eyed monster and cheering it when it devoured the irritating cameraman. seriously lame show, and the monster appeared to look so different in many parts of the show, I didn’t know if it was one or many monsters attcking the city. my friend said they needed power rangers or ultraman to pop up to complete the comedy.

this monster is very weird because the hand is messed up and also i think the movie is sick.the ears of the monster are crazy or is that the brain?WEIRD????the movies sick

Folks,

As I have posted on other sites, the Cloverfield monster is a Kraken.
You will find that out shortly.
It has 8 limbs. 2 tail-like things that are actually tentacles, 2 large hind legs, 2 smaller rubbery arms that hang by it’s waist, and the 2 very large arms.

On it’s head, it even has the pulsing, breathing appendages that you can find on octopi.

I’m telling you, this is a new age Kraken.

Remember where you heard it.

when i saw this movie, i left the movie theater confused. the story line way slightly wack, but the monster was great. I did not see any more limbs than 4 (2 big legs and 2 smaller arms) but that could just be me. I swear i have seen the face of the creature in another movie i.e the demon dog thing from hellboy.

The best description I’ve seen is “a turtle-headed pteranosaur that doesn’t have wing membranes, with a long tail”.

wait im still confused? did that emopunk girl “explode” or wuz she impregnated by those huge parasite spider things? yeah really what happened to her?

There are several different ideas for the girl exploding. One theory is that she was impregnated by the little spider-like creatures (not practical), or something in their siliva had a reaction with her body creating a type of gas that built up into her stomach, and forced her to blow up when the pressure was too much.

ok the monster comes from outerspace because when you watch the very last clip of the film when they are on Coney Island you see something black fall from the sky and land in the water new the Statue of Liberty, so we know it is from space. My theory on the girl exploding was that when she got bitten it caused her body to produce more blood and the blood filled her stomach untill she exploded. But that is just what I think.

It is confusing. So, it helps if you are very bored like me. So, you can keep a track of the viral marketing campaign they threw at us, and find every tidbit that the director left for us online.

The story goes:

1. The thing falling from the sky, was a Tagrauto satellite.
2. Slusho is a drink that makes people dream of growing and becoming a whale. Then, JJ created this whole fake Japanese marketing campaign for Slusho. http://www.slusho.jp/ It also is described as “makes my stomach explode with happy”.
3. Then, they said that the key ingredient was Sea Nectar, found at the bottom of the ocean.
4. So, there are a bunch of us that think Nagrauto/Slusho was actually drilling into these creatures, while they slept on the bottom of the ocean. Or, into their eggs or something. And, for some reason, when the satellite fell, it woke it up.
5. Then, of course, if that stuff is in the creatures blood, the parasites might have transferred it to the people they bite, in a pure form, making them explode or something.

Yeah, I haven’t seen the movie. I usually go to places and read ALOTTT of reviews before i do. So far i heard it’s not that good, And my friend saw it and snapped a few screens and vids of it (Can’t get them online with his crappy cell) So far it’s like this Giant praying mantis type thing, It literally looked like someone crossed a praying mantis with a monkey and maybe a lizard. And, Terri. The word ‘Cloverfield’ That is the Title and that is the ‘NAME’ of the monster. I’d show you with a clip if i had one, On the vid my friend showed me on his cell it said something like ‘Multiple sitings of the unidientified subject ”Cloverfield” Last siting in what used to be central park’ There was more into it but yeah. To be honest. I was kinda disappointed, I thought it might be like a Godzilla sequal. Just a different title, Like the name of the place it’s happening. Cause the 2000 Godzilla movie was actually good. And with the tiny parasites it gives off are like Crab people (You know what i’m talking about if you’ve seen southpark) And i shouldn’t really say tiny, Since their about the size of a dog. And i think the bites from them cause people to have mass amount of blood flow or something. But it doesn’t look that good to me… Also don’t read this part unless you want a spoiler, The cam guy DOES die. It kinda reminded me of when that lawyer died on jurassic park. It kinda just stands over him, And eat. Then the screen just goes off. The audience was like, Either confused or mad. It reminded of the end of Blair Witch Project. I haven’t seen the whole movie just a couple movie clips my friend got on his cell.

the creature is not a giant bug. if you saw the movie you could clearly see it did not have any joints on its legs like a spider. it obviously had skin with bones underneath. bugs have an exoskeleton (skeleton on the outside of the body). the creature is more like an amphibian.

this movie is wack but cool WATCH IT
O YEAH MY REASON ON THE GIRL EXPLODING WAS SHE GOT BIT AND SHE EXPLODED FROM SOMETHING LIKE IN DAWN OF THE DEAD THEY TURN INTO ZOMBIESS

my favorite quotes are from the people who judge this movie by actual scenes of the movie, and not the tongue in cheek idea that JJ Abrams once had a really bad and drunken night in New York where he probably contracted crabs, hence the seeming hatred he has to trash NYC. Bet he was at one of those parties the movie began with, and ended up like….with crabs. So he nuked the city. Cheers, Mako out.

my interpretation of the movie is as follows; (#1)in the first twenty five mins or so, it seem’s J J.ABRAMS PLOT was to INTRODUCE THE OVER ALL CAST,especially THE ACTOR WITH THE VIDEO CAMERA, to keep his audience playfully confused from the onset.(#2)AT THE RIGHT MOMENT BRING IN THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE THE EXPLOSION AND THE SPECIAL EFFECTS i.e.(head of miss liberty,landing in midtown manhattan,a glimpse of who and what was causing all of the death and destruction (the hideous creatures) and mayhem. (SCENES BORROWED FROM 911 FOOTAGE FROM THE COLLAPSED TOWERS) i.e,the dust clouds and debris etc.,the scene from the street level and lower subway levels of NYC. And then (#3) putting you and your senses on a roller coaster ride on screen,(BLAIR WITCH STYLE.)I close by saying it showed how we, when caught off guard,in a moment of crisis, NO ONE seemed to know what was going on. Including the media, the police, & military,
it was like so surreal and nightmare-ish.

THANK GOD IT WAS JUST A MOVIE!!!

“Thats definitely the real monster as seen on screen. But what a disappointment that entire movie was”

I enjoyed the movie and it gave me a few good jumps. Wanna know why? I wasn’t all hyped up about it or at the local premiere. If you got so hyped up about what YOU THOUGHT (That’s a keyword) the monster would like. So my point is, whatever movie that is top secret… They’re only doing that for money, not so you’ll hate it. And what creeped me out a lot more than this was 1984. Whoa what am I talking about now?

Oh… sorry to spam. I believe the thing at the end that guy was talking about was a glitch from the projector. Oh man. I saw this movie in Imax… Wow it wasn’t as loud as I am Legend (Which did kinda suck)

The film is worth the hype although the camera can make you quite sick and it is far too short. The monster i think changes shape because it was a human type, spider type and whale type. You’ll come out asking others loads of questions about the film. You’ll feel confused and urging to discover more but that only adds to the movies suspense. Clover field 2 could happen!!!!!!PEACE OUT YALL!!!!

I think you’ll all find that space has nothing to do with the monster(s) attacking NYC. All you have to do is read the viral websites. Go to slusho.jp to figure it out. There are at least six monsters, not one. The monsters are not from space. The monsters are not “Krakens.” Jeez. The viral sites are there for a reason. Visit them, READ and learn.

Saw the movie today…didn’t have to pay for it. Would’ve made a better flick if it wasn’t all hand held cams shots. Down side….no living creature could’ve taken the hits of military firepower and still be walking. Especially something that came out of the ‘depths’ of the ocean. Even with a exoskelelton. Multiple large creatures would’ve made more sense with all that shooting going on. The little crab-parasites that dropped off were killed by a lead pipe or whatever the guy stuck it with. Why did it spit the guy out after it chomped on him??? It was a fun movie overall, credit to JJA for the long strange and secretive previews.

Does anyone know of any other Viral websites other than the Slusho one?

I was laughing throughout the whole fricken movie (which I saw about 20 min. ago). Especially when that chick was bleeding from her eyes and then she exploded. XD

The “emogirl” died because of the bite, obviously. Shortly before she dies you see a military man on a stretcher with a huge hole where his stomache used to be and you hear someone saying “we have another bite.” So apparently when you get bit by those things it has a venom I’m assuming that eventually makes your stomache explode.

i think that the monster came from the depths, it would have to have hard skin to survive the pressure that deep, mabe one of those unexplored trenches in the atlantic. the different forms, mabe it evolves to the situation rapidly, like if he has to swim, he hits the water and changes, combat ect.

Ok i guess im not retarded like the rest of you who have seen the movie, but there is one Big monster and then there is a bunch of little crab creatures that fall off of it. Its not like there is a bunch of big ass creatures running around new york, the writters of the movie would of made that more aparent. The reason for your confusion is because the creature is huge and when it moves around it looks diffrent then when its standing still and the camcorder style of filming doesnt really help you see the monster clearly untill the very end when its looking at the camera man dead in the face. IF there is more creature you will probably find out in a 2nd film but in this movie there was only 1 big one and a bunch of crab people.

oh ya that movie was sweet for all you haters. if you threw up plz go join the group of vaginas that get sick on the bus. BUT if you wanna hate on this movie because you wernt impressed by not getting any information about the monster or w/e plz die because it was sweet seeing a bunch of crazy stuff happen to new york without a bunch of bullcrap put in about the alienS!!! or the DEEP TRENCHES WHERE THE EVIL MONSTER CAME FROM OR THE PRESIDENT BOMBING TERRORIST …..w/e just shut up and enjoy the 2 hour boner machine that is cloverfield

Yah, it sheds parasites which look like little crab/spider things. It has hind legs, but they’re small, has a small neck with the head on it, two giant skinny arms that go outward from about it’s back that help it walk and then two smaller arms from it’s chest. That’s it. I hope there is a sequel filling in the gaps later on cause I would really like to see what it is :] Awsome movie though.

There is definitely more than one big monster, the one that kills Hud at the end is nowhere near as huge as the one they are bombing at the end, I mean c’mon that one was like demolishing skyscrapers with its arms when is flailing around when the bombs hit it. The big huge one was like a tripod too, and the one at the end looked like it was moving around on four legs, and then the one thats coming straight at the characters when they’re saving the girl from the building looked like it was moving around on 2 legs. I think it was a great movie, maybe it helped that I hadn’t read anything about it before i went to see it, just read some stuff about the whole vertigo thing, didn’t even know it was about a monster until my friend mentioned that to me before we went to the movies lol.

Whats crazy is that this was the disadvantage to J.J. keeping the movie’s contents so secret that he practically created a sub-culture of people who were trying to figure out as much as they can on the Cloverfield monster….so once the movie came out you have tons of people who were let down by the lack of explinations to whatever it is they were dying to find out about the movie.I’m finally gonna watch the movie tonight and i still don’t care how vague the contents are in this movie…if its shot by one person thru one camera the whole way thru..i’d like to see what he WAS able to catch while the city is being attacked by the flesh eating flea infested monster(s)causing havok.lol
Pre-bumps to this movie!!!

a total total monster /horror sucess!!! good quality horror never shows the monster creature, just glimpses , or not at all!
Steven king , a grandmaster of horror commented as such. One example he used was an old series called “the nightstalker”( goolge it hipsters), this find the monster sleuth mystery show that was a great sucess until…….. the writers started showing the monsters!!!
The human imagination does a much better job then any special effects can!
not to mention the audience wants to believe!!
look at the sucess of Dr.Who, special effect laughable, audience wanting more, after all these years.
Cloverfield took a vial of the human imagination added a healthy pint of blair witch potion ( another proven monster sucess)
gave that to a redbull drinking youtube obsessed hipster nation….
BOOM instant sucess!!
its a no brainer brainiac idea!!!

Ok, so from what I am getting from everyone is that there is one monster!!@!. In a way I want to believe that but it keeps gnawing at me. I cant get over the fact that every time I saw the “GIANT MONSTER,” It was different. One more amphibious or lizard like with a tail and tenticals, one walking two legged with a tail, more muscular and smaller. and one that seems to have 100 story arms that have adapted to be its feet(which gets the helicopter.) And at the end the monsters face did not look the same when they were going ballistic on it, and compared to side angles of different scenes it does not look like the creature at the end. Someone said it before to that claws on the monster were different. Its parasites were also lookalikes to the aliens on starship troopers. Give me feedback I want to know if anyone has also noticed this, keep open minded this movie wasn’t made to draw conclusions.

i think those pictures r fake i saw thee real monster or did i anyways i meen c,mon

It looks like a man in a spider suit. Like something you would see on a made for tv sci-fi movie. Crap. I will not go see this film.

It’s definitely multiple monsters. The face of the monster battling the Army (with spidery eyes) looks different from the monster that attacks Hud and spits him out (which looks more reptilian). The tail/tentacle that knocks down the Brooklyn Bridge hints at a possible third beast.

This would also explain why the military can’t destroy “it.” As they blow one up, another takes its place.

…I wish people would take it upon themselves to learn how to properly spell.

Anyway, I just saw it tonight and it was the creepiest thing, walking out of the theater and thinking about something like that happening to me. No one knew what the hell was going on throughout the entire movie and I thought it was a redeeming factor… creates more suspense, you know? I hope there is some sort of sequel with more explanations of the event because all this talk about 6 different monsters has gotten me really interested… I feel like I need to go see it again to watch for the changes and that damn satellite falling in the ocean. Also, for the transmission after the credits. I left (oops).

I do see something falling from the sky and landing in the water at the end of the movie…It could be a piece of satellite that awoke the monster that was sleeping for years. Anyways I like the part where they think they killed it and then *CHOMP* down goes the helicopter.

i think the thing falling into the ocean is the monster. where else are those little parasites gonna come from… oh i know starship troopers.(jk) clover field is one of the best monster movies because of the way it was shot. non of this watching the government plan some stupid strike or having a background story to kill our immaginations. its as if we were there.

ok everyone there are no set ideas on what happened but there are like three theories and they are all based around the thing that fell from the sky.The most believable theory is that the monster has been sleeping for thousands of years in the ocean which is based off of a real life sound that was captured and is uncertain what it is. but anyway the thing that fell from the sky in the coney island scene is beleived to be a japanese sateilite that belongs to the company slosho or something but thats the company that Rob is going to work for and in the begining if u look on jasons shirt you see hes wearing a slosho shirt and the logo appears in the movie a couple other times. But the satelite is also supposed to be from another company i dont know what its called but thats what ive heard. but the other two theories are that that thing fell from the sky and mutated a whale and some crabs which is beleivable or it can from space but thats the highly unlikely one considering JJ said in an interview that its a baby and its been sleeping for a thousand years so when the baby is awoken by the satelite its mom goes to look for it and thats also why there are two monsters. The one that kills hud is alot diff from the one that is destroying the town because u see fighter jets go to bomb the monster and they fly right over them but the one that kills hud comes right from behind them also if the camera were to fall from the mouth of the mother monster it would have surely broke even if it did land on grass and the camera stays intact cause the monster was smaller and there are many physical features that separate the two.

that makes alot of sense. but a mutated whale is kind of hard to follow. i watched the movie only twice but did’nt pick up there being two monsters. thanks for clearing up that stuff.

well i came here and read some commnts of ppl acting like they trulely know this movie. first off all the monster DOES come from the sea. second it wasent a meter but a satalite that came fell into the sea to wake up the monster. oh ya and the monster we saw was just a baby

Why do people always want to be force fed information? This film works with our basic knowledge and understanding of story telling particularly in the sci-fi film genre.

Its told from the point of view of some guy who just happens to have a camera when the shit hits the fan! How the hell would he know whats going on- the military didnt even know what was going on for christ sake! And how could you when some randomly, gigantic beast from who knows where shows up all pissed! When the bombs went off in the London Underground, my Taiwanese mate didnt find out until his mum and dad rang up from Taiwan asking if he was alright and he lived in central!! Its a massive city! Someone could get shot on the otherside of the road and you’d probably never know it happened let alone why it happened!!

I think the film done a near on perfect job of capturing real life panic and confusion. That was the point! And all this debating on how many creatures there were and where its from is a load of old tosh because if there were a tape documenting such atrocity, the viewer let alone the poor sod filming it all could not have those answers. If you don’t like documentary/real-life style filming where you have to piece it together from your own general knowledge of life & fictional, unexpected occurrences and still not really lead to a conclusion (kinda like how life is anyway!!!), then go watch some bollocks like Dare Devil or The Thunderbirds Movie (the one from about 4 years ago!). You really dont need to be told where the thing comes from, use your imagination, thats what the film asks of you:
-giant unexplained creature= alien? some deep sea creature thats just woken up? nuclear testing mutant? maybe even the whole of New York started hallucinating slightly different versions of a similar event due to some chemical warfare gas bomb that secretly went off just off shore and what people are actually seeing is an escaped chimp from Central Park Zoo harmlessly swinging off of lamp-posts, causing mass panic and unnecessary violence (a social commentary about how America panics over something they haven’t really looked into or experienced, but decides to go for the kill anyway!)
-exploding people= the damage inflicted by the little flea creatures causes a bad reaction in our bodies that causes explosively high blood pressure?! maybe they inject you with mini fleas that burst out?

Just where exactly in a film that plays like reality would some stereotypically-British scientist (coz it’s always a stereotyped, emotionless, prudey, British scientist) pop out from, presumably the monsters arse replete with speckle glasses and a stool sample and spurt some crap like, “chin chin, spiff spoff, this abomination is a relic from the cold war that the Russians have been hiding from us since before the cold war and was given to them by the Greeks when their mythologies became unfashionable. Im just glad we got to it before the ‘Eye-raqi’s’ did!” Or some other bullshit explanation. What a cop-out that would have been. Of course, if the film had been shot from a traditional story telling point of view then there would be room for that kind of stuff, but it wasn’t was it?! It wasn’t about the creature, it was about the mass reaction to it.

Use your brains people! There’s a whole world in there thats just waiting to be explored and there’s more than one way to tell a story ; )
