Skowl wrote:I just saw the teaser poster for this film, (see it here) and I think it's one of the best teasers I've ever seen (it's on par with the Star Wars episode I teaser poster). It's just great art direction. And it doesn't even have the name of the movie anywhere, the whole film campaign is the best tease in itself.

I still think this film will be a "Blair Witch Project" for monster movies. Hand-held camera throughout, concentrating only on the personal side of things, perhaps a subtle war on terror/9-11 type experience, showcasing what people do under extreme stress and fear, only using a monster instead.

I think as far as teaser posters go that is brilliant

A couple of things are making me a bit wary of this film, as much as I loved the trailer:

1) The price tag. $30M? Chump change. I know that you don't always get what you pay for in Hollywood, and you're not paying big names on either side of the (lone) camera, but still.

2) The "Found" rumor is a little too plausible for my liking. The Aurax household gave up on "Lost" about 3/4 of the way through the first season. A movie tie-in isn't going to get us back to the show... it's just too much work. Tie-ins with movies only work the other way around (TV -> big screen).

That said, I absolutely love the detective work going on. Like, that graffiti that's near the entrance to the stairwell as the kids are all scampering back into the building... does that come into play somehow? The potential of this movie is tickling the same synapses that Twin Peaks did. (All of this is no doubt why the references to Doyle are having a little staying power as well.)

Its being filmed on camcoders like in Blair Witch

I think most of the scenes will be of them hiding and running and the effects might be placed just so

You don't need a bunch of effects to get the point across

This is my thinking as well.

Is it just my ears playing tricks on me or did I hear someone say

"Whatever it is, its wooden"?

I am going to be really, really pissed if this thing turns out to be a giant cloud of smoke. Seriously though, I can't wait to see this.

"Whatever it is it's Winning" is the exact quote.

A better-quality verison. You need DivX to see this.

Edit: Don't be fooled by the "Spider-man Loves New York" stuff.

I am guessing they put that so the studio does not track them down and make them remove it.

Here is the trailer and a decent review of it

Why do I have feeling the red light we are seeing might be it's eye?

News Credits: 767 · by **Dead Metal** » Fri Nov 16, 2007 5:03 pm

I do hope the movie won't be entirely like the trailers, I can't stand that style of camera,it hurts my eyes.

And just to confirm for the people who speculate too much:

It's not Cthulhu
It's not Voltron
It's not Godzilla

It IS a completely original monster movie.

Of course they do. Why? People are morons, idiots, stooges(not the good kind), goons, etc.

I saw the trailer with Beowolf. This movie really is starting to lose it's appeal. It seems what we feared is starting to come true. With them showing a lot of new footage, it doesn't seem like that good of a film. It really seems(thus far) to be all hype.

Hopefully I'll be wrong and this movie will be good.
