Cloverfield

The Cloverfield Project

I probably won't see this movie, but the viral marketing is pulling me in. Some people have become obsessed with the first trailer and have analyzed it over and over again.

Most of you probably saw the original trailer in the previews of the 'Transformers' movie. If I remember correctly the trailer gave no mention that the was called and it just kind of ended abruptly. It ran right after with the 'I Am Legend' preview and caught me off guard. I thought it was going to be some corny teen movie until the panic happened.

The last one is my favorite, it's a giant puzzle. I beat it and it said it will send me an email on Aug 1st, but the movie comes out next month... After beating the puzzle I left the sound on while typing this message and got startled (don't worry nothing is going to jump out at you).

From the newer preview above it looks like this is going to be giant monster movie mixed with some kind of infection. I was hoping it would be a Voltron/GoLion movie like some reports had rumored.

Here are some more examples of the mysterious marketing. What does Heroes have to do with this movie, I don't know.

Couple more sites made to promote the movie:

I have no idea how to access the password for the third site.
