Movie lovers have been
going wild trying to decipher the trailer they saw just before Transformers over the last week. The film has no name, but so far it's been called
Cloverfield and
1-18-08. Well, as sparse as the info is around the web, this much we do know...
- The film revolves around a monster attack in New York as told from the point of view of a small group of people
- It's being produced by J.J. Abrams
- It is being directed by Matt Reeves, who co-created
Felicity The beginning of the madness started with this...
Recently, everal sites launched in relation to the film...
Contains 2 photos which are draggable around your screen. One photo with a small group of people at a party. Photo taken at 12:01AM. The other, a shot of two frightened girls loking upward, taken at 12:36AM, 35 minutes aftyer the first shot. |  |
Contains the ramblings of a blogger which apparently is claiming that the prophet that is Ethan Haas, is a false one. "His prophet Ethan Haas was nothing more than a raving lunatic long forgotten by history. Mantra's website EthanHaasWasRight is a foolish attempt to capture the short attention of today's youth in an attempt to breath new life into the visions of a long dead fool." |  |
The third site, setup to test viewers puzzle skills, eventually unlocks a set of 5 video messages from Ethan Haas himself. Watch them below. |  |
If anyone has any insight, please comment!

BAND TOGETHER PEOPLE
After spending countless hours reading reviews and really bad guesses (some involving giant lions) I do believe i have it figured out. all the solid information collected about turns to one beast: Cthulhu.
If you don't know about Cthulhu (Kathoolhoo) all you really need to know is that he's huge,Comes from the sea, Has claw's, he's pretty much the epidemy of terror, He is often preceded by the epithet Great, Dead, or Dread, and is said to look like A pulpy, tentacled head (dragon-y) surmounted a grotesque and scaly body with rudimentary wings.
With the fist hand accounts of filming there is said to be one huge creature with a lot of minions and when the minions are mentioned there is always the word "star" floating around. Well Mr.Cthulhu indeed does have that also: "The star-spawn of Cthulhu, or Cthulhi, have a physical simility with Cthulhu himself, but are of far smaller size. This race arrived with him, but relatively little is known about them. On earth they built the city R'lyeh, which later sank in the ocean, and where they still dwell with Cthulhu"
So crafty JJ Abrams if you really did want to do an original horror flick Cthulhu would be for you.
You know, the one with the monster?
I can now safely say the teaser is not separate from the film, its part of the beginning which was shown in an abridged fashion for the purpose of the teaser, it's longer in the movie.
The new scene opens with several traumatized survivors, moving through a very dark corridor there's slight cold blue illumination from halogen emergency lighting, a girl in the group is badly beaten up she's bleeding and looks very sickly. The main group is comprised of 3 characters, Rob from the main trailer, the cameraman and a girl, though there may be others.
This scene takes place after the initial attack of "The monster" the scene we all saw in theatres. Rob is taking charge and telling everyone to keep calm, the girl says she doesn't feel so good.
They limp along until US Army soldiers storm in shouting at them, demanding they drop they're weapons, they shout back they're unarmed, there's a lot of commotion, then they're herded briskly up some E.T style scientific tubing into a makeshift aid center, its very dark, threes lots of doctors tending to wounded and military walking about making the scene very busy. "What is that thing?" they ask as they catch their breath, the cryptic answer comes from a soldier "We don't know, but it's winning"
The imagery in this scene is like something after a terrorist bombing. A carcass is wheeled past with his guts hanging out, the cameraman struggles to take in the surroundings.
Rob gets angry with the aggressiveness of the soldiers who now tell them they can't leave, "I'm going out there, if you want to stop me you'll have to shoot me" we gather he's looking for his girlfriend. "I feel really sick" the girl unexpectedly mutters, the camera pans to her, shes looks like shes about to throw up, and curiously is crying blood from her right eye. Someone shouts "She's been bitten!"
Chaos ensues... Scene end. That's all you get, this may be used for promotion and is a possibility for an upcoming trailer.
I have to agree with "Ispeed.." that theory was debunked like a month ago...
If your not sure about something people, look at other pages. I mean this site is cool and all but there is ALOT more info on other sites and its waiting to be read.
