The Cloverfield Monster … Revealed!
Cloverfield (2008) Movie — By Nix on September 18, 2007
Haven’t heard much from J.J. Abrams’ “Cloverfield” lately, and if I’m not mistaken the 1-18-08 site hasn’t been updated for months now. Oh well, all good things must become tedious, right? But in any case, here’s something new: The guys over at Horror-Movies.ca have posted a drawing of what the Cloverfield monster looks like, complete with “Monster Louse”, little crab-like parasites that lives on the alien monster’s body, and one assumes, falls off him when he invades New York and trashes the city. Is it real? I highly doubt it. But it sure looks neat, and whoever put the time and effort to draw it gets a thumbs up for creativity.
UPDATE 1/28/08: The real Cloverfield monster can be found here.

slushos are a fictional drink that might mutate animals. It has appeared in Heroes and Alias. Alias was also created by J.J. Abrahms…so…yea, i think Abrahms has been planning this a long time.

Yeah, this is totally Sin; an inspired choice for this guy’s design but a complete copy at the same time. After scrutinising the trailer, the only glimpse of a “monster” I thought I could see was what looked like a humanoid shoulder and back between two buildings. I expect the Title to refer to some incident or project that may have spawned a mutation? Maybe a brutally realistic, twisted take on Japanese cheese like Ultra-man?
I’m making out a curved scale plate rising off the back of the actual creature in the slow-mo video. Makes me fearful that this will indeed be an alternative “Godzilla”. It makes sense. Hollywood enjoys burning itself twice by making sequels to movies that weren’t that great in the first place… Like the proverbial hamster that keeps trying to get the electrified food pellet.
I agree with B-Boy on this. In the H.P. Lovecraft story ‘The Call of Cthulhu’ when Cthulhu awakens he will cause insanity and mass panic. What better place to start than NYC? Millions live there and the insanity can spread…
Perhaps the stars are right…..

It does look like Sin….but…it is a cthulhu.
and no, its not gonna be a godzilla sequel…
and……detemining the size, the cthulhu could’ve easily hit the head of the statue of liberty and sent it flying into the city. Its possible that it could have torn the head off and thrown it, seeing that it has thumbs, but yea.
Frankly…I don’t think J.J. Abrams is inventive enough to have this be Cthulhu. He probably doesn’t even know who Lovecraft is.
its a remake of godzilla 98 the monster is named zilla made like godzilla but in the french polynesian islands and i bet it fights a whale like deamon creature which attacks new york and zilla comes to kick its ass. now they had to change the roar from godzillas to make a new one for zilla if its to be a new monster and if you listen to both they are almost identical sooooooooo and in the high def shot of the monster you clearly see two zilla looking legs and 3 spikes which looked alot like godzilla 98 now as for parasites like i said maybe a diff monster attacks and zilla comes to kill it . or maybe just one monster but im 80 percent certain that this will be like batman the beginning for godzilla 98 whcih would be sweet because this looks bad asss
ya know what i think you right joshuawarren i to think zilla will be in cloverfield. and ya know that thing people are mastakaning for as a turtle shell,i looked at it closly and i found out that that is realy a neck.I know its huge but zilla’s is huge too.but that is only my opinion.and like you said what other monster would have dinasour type legs like zilla’s.
You know, after checking out the Slusho “official” web site, I’m starting to believe that this might be it. I’ve heard someone say they confirmed it as fanart…but let’s just say that I’ve had someone tell me that a different project claimed something was fake before and ended up lying. The whole “turning into a whale” bit. It makes me want to lean toward a giant mutated whale as being the monster, and that’s definitely what this thing is.
That thing does look like Sin! So I have mixed feelings if it does turn out to be the cloverfield monster. On the one hand it still looks cool. On the other, I too was hoping the movie was about the Cthulhu which I prefer this look for http://www.quickstopentertainment.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/11/toybox_112806_3.jpg
That would be a much terrifying creature. And the whole Cthulhu mythos is much more interesting and creepy than another biological experiment gone wrong story, which Cloverfield may be shaping up to be. I hope not, but either way I think the movie is going to be great.
