Some new viral marketing for the long-awaited (since January, anyway) Cloverfield 2 has trickled out — unless it's just a red herring. A viral site released these underwater monster photos. Look closely and you can see crooked-legged monster/aliens running about on (what appears to be) the sea floor. The pictures accompanied a government-esque blacked out document detailing a frantic transmission between Ngog Atsumi and Sub-4767. View all three black and white pictures and transmission document after the jump.
More underwater black and whites, possibly from Sub-4767? Could Sub. be short for submarine? Perhaps this is where the unidentified object landed that audiences' saw crash into the ocean in the corner of the final Coney Island scene. What if the new Cloverfield 2 took a page from The Abyss? That would leave little room for handycam work.
Most of the conversation is blacked out but a nicely placed, "ATSUMI: It went after them," followed by a few "(screaming)" moments still gives the impression of a monster attack.[Filmofilia]

No telepathic super moth? No joy.
Those do look kind of like the little parasite fellows that dropped off the main monster...
The document, though, it nearly impossible for me to read. Either it's blurry or I had more fun this weekend than I thought.
maybe they could make it set underwater so i get seasick instead of just motion sick. that would be killer.
Nice. I love the Abyss and all, but I'm hoping this has a little less love and hugging. Maybe a little more Leviathan/Deep Star Six.
Just as long as Hud stays dead I'm all for it...
And man he must have tasted really bad for the monster to have spit him out.
(remember the super cute girl that he kept bugging who saved his ass and got killed for it said that it was eating people as it went down the street)
And his body should have been totally mangled...
They dropped the ball on that one cause i was laughing instead of being terrified. Maybe just a severed arm and head should have dropped. That would have been more consistent with being chomped down on by a giant sloppy monster.
The name Ngog Atsumi seems like a anagram/
@Garrison Dean, King Awesome: Hee hee! Deep Star Six. Now, that's a cheese fest I love and cherish! (Seriously, I love it!)
Saw it in theaters but watched again on dvd this weekend. It scared the shit out of my 8 year-old. He made me turn it off during the subway scene and put iCarly back on instead.
These things seem fake to me, but I fell for the X Files werewolf thing, so what do I know?
@dOk: See, what I think is, Hud didn't actually die--he was only in shock from blood loss and blunt force trauma. Military scientists and doctors found his body, replaced his lost lower half with cybernetic limbs, gave him superhuman strength and futuristic weapons, and programmed him to exact revenge against the monster.
I think they should call it Cloverfield 2: Hud Games.
Or maybe I'm thinking of Universal Soldier.
Well if you plot the Latitude and Longitude from the image, it places in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

though I'm sure I could have plotted it wrong... or read the image wrong... lol
@danwaterhouse: If I was your kid I'd never speak to you again. That would freak the shit out of any 8 year old.
I probably would have been laughing my ass off at them though, so I guess I'm just as bad...
It will be interesting to see where this leads... either Funky Town, or contrived Shitty Town. More power to the Abrams for pulling our collective strings with real/red herring viral images.
Pretty cool. Hopefully no shaky-cam to the nth degree this time around.
@danwaterhouse: You let your 8 year old watch Cloverfeild? Wow. How far along is he in GTA4?
"Could Sub. be short for submarine?"
Let's see , what else could Sub. be short for: Subutex, Subaru, Subway (viral marketing tie-ins?), Subhuman, Sub Pop, Sublime?
@Garrison Dean, King Awesome: Is that out? Kid just had a birthday, gotta get him to buy it with Great Aunt Jane's gift. He dug the Hot Coffee mod on San Andreas.
This isn't for Cloverfield 2, it's just a continuation of the viral marketing from the movie.
@danwaterhouse: You should at least make him finish Cloverfield so that he doesn't get permanently scared. He needs to watch the whole thing so that he knows the heroes make it out and the good guys win and he doesn't need to worry about monsters attacking him. Oh wait.
@Gyrus:
Oh, but you can't have Mothra without his (her?) tiny faerie cheering section.
@Belabras: Yes! Singing midget twins in a lunchbox, now that's entertainment.
@dOk: no worries, Hud s indeed dead, and the proof actually just goes by really fast.
if you have the DVD or someway to watch the movie, slow it down after the monster chomps down on Hud. After the screaming and such, s the camera begins to fall, it looks up, and you can clearly see the lower half of Hud still hanging from the creature's mouth. You can even see a shot of intestine.
Only his torso hits the ground.
Word.
@Garrison Dean, King Awesome: He kept asking me: Does he die? Does she die? It was really fun to keep saying yes.
I considering this type of parenting to be like growing a serial killer in a petrie dish.
Cant be Cloverfield 2. Unless it takes place at the bottom of the ocean.
@danwaterhouse: You fascinate me.
@quick
"Cloverfield 2: The Vengence of Hud"
@Garrison Dean, King Awesome:
I'll see your Leviathan/Deep Star Six and raise you Proteus - in which a shape-shifting shark with a crack habit runs amok on an oil rig.
No, seriously.
@danwaterhouse: I hope you're keeping a detailed journal so that others may follow your example. :)
I got tired of the sea monster thing like a year ago. Okay, maybe 3 months ago. Whatever.
@dOk: I feel like a huge nerd for knowing this, but it actually eats people with the feeding tubes it extends from its chest. They ended up cutting that out.
But Hud probably did taste way too much like weed.
@HomoSapiensRex:
I'm glad I'm not the only one who has seen this amazing piece of cinematography. If I remember correctly, the hero (Dan from the UK soap Eastenders) shouts "you're just a big fish with a smack habit", timeless.
Okay, since the original Cloverfield monster was presumably killed, another is sent to take its place.
Thus: "Cloverfield 2: The Hud Sucker Proxy"
Uh, no. It's part of the first flick.

CloverField 2? 1. Those are the parasites we see in the subway scene of the movie. 2. The second picture you can see the monster in the background if you look closely. 3. What the "Unidentified" falling object was at then film's ending was the Tagruato's satillite called The ChimpanzIII. 4. There isn't going to be a Cloverfield 2, J.J. Abrams said they're THINKING about it, but nothing has hit them yet. 5. And where the hell do you see the fallen object? It shows the support beams of the Chui Station... You guys really have to look this up, these pictures are already all explain they're just from the Viral advertising. 6. Most of the info on this website's either A. Misleading, B. You guys don't really pay attention to your sorce material, or C. Totaly wrong... --------------------------------- Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile. Try it now.
@Garrison Dean, King Awesome: LOL. Cloverfield is a real learning experience for children: 'hey, little guy-- let's watch this movie so that if there's ever an emergency at, you know, a city-wide level, you'll understand right away that there's no use in trying to save anyone-- even people you love. that's how folks die. when buildings start falling down, it's every man for himself--your best bet is to run like Hell. And PS: forget the f*cking camera, OK? it just makes the survivors sick to their stomachs.'
