IGN Cloverfield Video Interviews

1/24/2008 | Posted by Dave and Thomas
IGN Movies was one of the select few outlets invited last week to participate in on-camera interviews with the director and the cast of Cloverfield, Paramount's new horror film which enjoyed a monstrous first place opening of $40 million this past weekend.

Knowing that our video interviews would not be running until after the film had opened and viewers would finally have had a chance to see the movie's super-secret monster, we decided to ask the filmmaker and actors all about the highly anticipated creature. (source)

Did Cloverfield Live Up To The Hype?

1/18/2008 | Posted by Dave and Thomas
Last night was the much-anticipated midnight release of J.J. Abrams's Cloverfield, and, being that the guys at New York Entertainment's Vulter we're huge nerds, they decided to ask viewers to talk about the film. New York's David Edelstein liked it, but what do moviegoers think? Was it as good as they'd expected? How was the monster? Did the cinematography make anyone throw up? Watch the video and find out!

Amateur Cloverfield Review from Philadelphia

1-18-08 cloverfield monster attack
If you are looking for clues and possible spoilers to the Cloverfield movie be sure to check out the UnFiction forums. They are good at pointing out spoilers so you won't get ruined by mistake. One good thing is that people who have followed Cloverfield and the viral campaign are giving their honest reviews. It's good to see how a non-paid critic views the flick. Here's one from a guy in Philly who just watched the film
Note: Today was the first official day of screenings across the county. We should be flooded with reviews and spoilers tomorrow!

Bam! New Cloverfield Clip With Monster Sighting

1/10/2008 | Posted by Dave and Thomas
This short and sweet Cloverfield advert shows us a new (and very quick) glimpse of the Cloverfield Monster. Like the full-length trailer, this clip only shows a brief glimpse of the monster lost within the shadows of the skyscrapers. Don't blink. You might miss it.

Slusho Ingredient Gets FDA Approval

Slusho Ingredient Gets FDA Approval


Kaitei No Mitsu (known as "Seabed's Nectar") is the key ingredient in Slusho and has been given approval by the Clovefield version of the FDA called the American Food Association. Despite the tragic losses at the Chuai Stations, where the Nectar is harvested allegedly, Slusho's parent company Tagruato applauded the AFA's decision.


Kaitei No Mitsu Approved for US Distribution

"Members of Tagruato's elite corporate board were greeted with a rare surprise yesterday as founder Ganu Yoshida visited their emergency home screens in a simultaneous teleconferencing broadcast. After much discussion, Yoshida revealed that kaitei no mitsu, the special Slusho! ingredient lovingly known as "Seabed's Nectar", had been approved by the American Food Association.

"Those lost at Chuai would be smiling this day," commented a choked-up Ganu Yoshida, "Tagruato stands strong against the evil of ecologist terror."

Tagruato can now proceed with their extensive American campaign for bringing Slusho! to the western world. In addition to the creation of three Western-only flavors, Slusho! representatives claim that many other surprises are in store for their new audience.

"This has been a dream of ours for a long time," smiles Slusho! Administrative Coordinator Mika Srauy, "We've already secured relationships with several prominent American distributors and are compiling our own Western-oriented marketing team."

The board applauded the news, thanking their friends in foreign lands for such strong support in troubled times.

"Ordinarily there would be more happiness in our celebration but it has been a dark week," admitted Slusho! Administrative Head Ben Miyake, "I am proud to be part of such a brave company." (source)

Part Of Cloverfield Monster Seen In Chuai Videos?

1/07/2008 | Posted by Dave and Thomas
The topic of the moment is whether you can see the arms or tentacles of the Cloverfield Monster grabbing the Chuai Station's legs as it is being destroyed. This image from the IMDB forums highlights the area in question. Watch the video at the bottom of the post and see if you don't see the arm in question.


Also, a couple more Chuai Station destruction videos have popped up. One is Japanese with Korean subtitles (the uploader declares) and the other looks to be Japanese. The show most of the same footage along with an Oil Tanker. I'm wondering if that's going to be the same oil tanker destroyed in New York Harbor on 1-18-08?

Cloverfield In The News

1/03/2008 | Posted by Dave and Thomas



A semi- humorous look at the world as it has been touched by J.J. Abrams.

Unfortunately, she discusses her interest in the film and brings out the Cloverfield-9/11 connection at the end.


A look at the production of new movies Cloverfield and Paranormal Activity, which both borrow heavily from the infamous Blair Witch Project.



This is a limited time advertisement, but Cloverfield is the latest movie to take over the homepage of MySpace.

Cloverfield Monster

1/01/2008 | Posted by Dave and Thomas
The Cloverfield Monster is a hot commodity right now. Tonight there was a wave of Internet searches for the "Cloverfield Monster" that even saw a nice spike on Google Trends. I'm guessing the interest has to do with the TV ads that are saturating the holiday TV lineup.

The only real video I know of at the moment of the Cloverfield Monster is this clip that came from the full-length trailer released a month and a half ago. It shows the Cloverfield Monster walking through the skyscrapers of Manhattan while the Army fires at it. The video has been reused in a couple of the TV ads that I've seen but I have yet to see any new footage. Feel free to shoot me a link to any new images or video but for now I think we're left with this little clip:



Also, here is the Cloverfield trailer I mentioned above that featured the original footage of the monster which is located about the 1:25 mark.

Rant: Expect No Answers From Cloverfield

12/30/2007 | Posted by Dave and Thomas
Cinema Blend takes a look at the "Cloverfield" phenomenon.

"We’re getting increasingly closer to that 01-18-08 release date that had everyone captivated a few months ago. Finally we’ll get to see what all the hype has been about as Cloverfield hits theaters. As you might expect, the movie’s commercials have continued to shroud much of the film in secrecy. Fans who were critical of Michael Bay unveiling the Transformers crew prior to the film’s release, after such a build up of anticipation, are the same people who are seeing every new commercial and whining that there’s no sign of the monster. Well, I’ve got news for you: get used to it.

Let me be frank: I don’t expect Cloverfield to deliver much in the way of a traditional “monster” movie, regardless of how much producer J.J. Abrams and writer/director Matt Reeves say their intent was to create that. And that’s what they’ve said: America lacked a true “monster movie” so they created one. ”We need our own Godzilla,” Abrams told MTV in July. But let’s look at what we know about the movie, and you’ll see an American Godzilla isnt’ what we’re getting.

First of all, take a look at the film’s premise, as promised by the studio: Five young New Yorkers throw their friend a going-away party the night that a monster the size of a skyscraper decends upon the city. Told from the point of view of their video camera, the film is a document of their attempt to survive the most surreal, horrifying event of their lives.” That’s the text that appears on the “about the movie” description over at CloverfieldMovie.com, the official site for the film. Now, let’s break that down. (...continue)"

New Cloverfield Commercial, New Footage

12/28/2007 | Posted by Dave and Thomas
This latest "Cloverfield" TV spot shows us new footage from the movie. Previous commercials were mostly rehashed trailer clips with no new material. This latest ad shows more of the characters running for their lives including a scene where Rob is looking at a map in the subway trying to figure out where they will be killed.

‘Cloverfield’ Director Starry-Eyed Over ‘Trek’ Trailer, Footage

12/28/2007 | Posted by Dave and Thomas
star trek jj abramsMatt Reeves, the "Cloverfield" director, gets to be one of the lucky few to witness the creation of J.J. Abrams "Star Trek" movie. Reeves talks with MTV to discuss peaking in on the "Star Trek" dailies.

If it seems like MTV is getting a few more "Cloverfield" stories than most it's because Viacom owns both MTV and Paramount, who is distributing "Cloverfield."

Yahoo Cloverfield Clip - On The Roof

12/26/2007 | Posted by Dave and Thomas
Yahoo! Movies has updated their "Cloverfield" trailers page with a clip from the movie. However, it looks like they just edited down the "widget" clip released a few weeks back. The Yahoo clip is really just the party scene we've already come to know from previous videos. It actually just looks like an extended preview of the teaser trailer. You can see for yourself here.

A side note that may mean very little to some of you but is related a tiny bit is that there is going to be a sequel to the great Korean film, "The Host." There is rumors that this movie will actually take place before the original so the audience may get to see more of how the "Host" grew up. If you haven't had a chance to see this movie yet than be sure to check it out. It'll be a good primer for when "Cloverfield" finally rolls out on 1-18-08.

What is Cloverfield?

Welcome to 1-18-08 Project Cloverfield Blog.

Cloverfield is the J.J. Abrams (Lost, Alias) produced monster flick directed by Matt Reeves. Get caught up on all the Cloverfield news including the viral world of Tagruato, TIDOwave, and Slusho!? And now Aladygma?

However, I love viral campaigns. Cloverfield taught me the fun of being involved with the viral world of movies and TV. That's why I'd like to branch out this site to cover some of the major viral campaigns as they are developing. Feel free to drop me a line or tip on any you find interesting.

Welcome to Cloverfield

Very few facts emerged from the viral campaign that was Cloverfield. It all started after a short, teaser trailer for Cloverfield appeared with the Transformers movie in early July of 2007. Since then, speculation surrounded what the title of the movie would be (Monstrous, Overnight, etc...) and what the monster really is and why it is tearing up New York City.

A few pictures and covert videos from the film showed up online and there were only a few core facts we knew of including the poster, the teaser trailer, and a few websites at 1-18-08, Tagruato Corp, and Slusho .

In November, the official full-length Cloverfield trailer was released that helped open up the story as well as cement the "Cloverfield" name for the movie. A short glimpse of the Cloverfield Monster was seen but for most people they still had little or no clue as to what it was.

The movie centered around five young New Yorkers throwing their friend a going-away party the night that a monster the size of a skyscraper descends upon the city. Told from the point of view of their video camera, the film is a document of their attempt to survive the most surreal, horrifying event of their lives. Cloverfield opened the weekend of 1-18-08 and set box office records for a movie in January with a monster take of over $40M. Continue to check back here for updates on the mystery and viral campaigns of Cloverfield.

Get Started with the Cloverfield Viral Marketing

If you're new to the Cloverfield viral world than let's get started. First off, for the beginners let's look at what we're talking about.

What does viral marketing mean? Click here.

Click and hold the mouse to 'grab' an image and move it around. While holding the image, shake it back and forth quickly and it will flip over. Some images have writing on the back.

Slusho This is the Japanese frozen drink made from a secret ingredient gathered from the bottom of the ocean. Slusho gives you a kick and makes you extremely happy. Prior to 1-18-08 Slusho was not sold in the US. However, recent FDA approval gave Slusho clearance to come to the states. Rob Hawkins, the lead character, was recently promoted to vice-president of Slusho and was on his way to Japan the night of the attack. Slusho is owned by the Tagruato Corp. of Japan. Slusho also first made an appearance on J.J. Abrams Alias during a scene where characters buy the drink at a store.

Tagruato This ficticious Japanese company is the parent company of Slusho as well as the Yoshida Medical Research, Bold Futura, and ParafFUN! Wax Distributors. Besides drilling the oceans for Slusho ingredients, Tagruato builds everything from space satellites to medical gear.

T.I.D.O wave An activist group set out to bring to light all the damage Tagruato has done to the envirnoment.
