Cloverfield Update: Fans Draw the Cloverfield Monster!

Posted by Neil Miller (neil@filmschoolrejects.com) on January 13, 2008

My good friend Pete over at /Film has come across a bunch of awesome fan-drawn pictures of the monster(s) from this week’s big release, Cloverfield. Of course, we have seen a few fake images of the monster, but those have been debunked. So while the images that you are about to see (which were found over on the Unfiction Forums) are not the actual monster from the movie, they are drawings by fans who have seen the film. Thank all that is holy for pre-screenings. Just click the images below to enlarge.

The first image is said to be the closest to the real monster:

This one is an artist’s reproduction of the parasitic organisms that come off of the monster:

Cloverfield hits theaters on Friday, January 18. Feel free to discuss below amongst yourselves. Also, check out this image, which shows a very slow motion view of the monster in the trailer.

AT LAST!!! I'm satisfied now that this is as close as we'll come to anything besides the movie. Now I can have a decent nights sleep.......

Kaeto

THE DEEP ONES!!!!!! I had a feeling this was going to be based on Hp Lovecraft's stories....WOOOT

Jeremy

I have to say that is the stupidest looking monster ever. Completely unrealistic, unbelievable etc. It might as well have been Gamera or something equally preposterous.

When is someone going to make a "monster movie" where the monsters are actually
something that *could* live. This thing makes no sense at all.

To "Jeremy":

Someone's being a Negative Nancy.

We watch movies like these because it makes us feel better that these things could NEVER happen.

Thus, allowing us to sleep at night.

Jeremy, if you dont like it - dont go see the movie. Without seeing the movie or the real monster you have already become a critic. I wonder how your love life suffers from all that. You must have been the kid that kicked rocks all the time, and then got pissed at the rocks cause they didnt go where you wanted them too!

Cloverfield came to my college and did a sneak showing of the full movie, and what I can say is this: the drawing of the little organism that comes off of the monster is pretty close to dead on. The renditions of the monster itself are all completely off the mark.

Jeremy

Jeremy is a writer who is an expert on the science-fiction genre and monster movies
specifically. He just gave his opinion, based on the facts and a deep knowledge of science-
fiction and movie history. You are the ones jumping all over me for just stating my opinion.
If you are satisfied with junk, then movie makers will continue to make it.

Reeves

JC, it's interesting that you say all of the pics of the monster itself are off the mark. All of the college students at IMDB.com claim that the first image of the monster that's shown on this site are dead-on.

Dan

If it were up to "Jeremy" there would be no movies, because in his expert opinion they would all be stupid. People, understand, Jeremy is an expert and he speaks in the 3rd person. The Dude is not impressed.

Oh Yes, most monster movies are pretty stupid, but thats not the point, the point is to go see something different. I don't see how you can be an expert on monster movies and not realize that. Did you like Harry and the Henderson's? I thought it was pretty neat. The plot was pretty awesome.
