Did someone call me?
I'm not saying that's me in this film. However, it does resemble some old friends.

Might these old friends be of the type who enjoy destroying cities and such?
Just a thought, they sound like homewreckers to me.

Slusho is actually Shoggoths, and the main monster is one of the Old Ones (Elder Ones?) calling them in for duty, hence the people-splosions (The Shoggoth popping out of the humans). That's it, isn't it? XB

request the link on page on from e2 doesn't seem to work anymore, could you please redo whatever you did. I just got home from work and want to watch the trailer on my 360, but the link is not working.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Here's the monster sighting (speculation)

Using this new, brighter, trailer version, I compiled the following:
I've circled the area that shows a HUGE figure/object moving behind a building to presumably avoid the military fire (and any chance at a clear glimpse of it). Use the slowed animation below to see it moving to the right, behind the building in front:
Here it is, animated, with .2 second pause between frames, looped. Click it to view a larger animation, this one is half-size.
Speculate away!
Oh, and here's the exploding woman write up I did earlier (Click this sentence).
Looks like the monster gelled his horns. Guess he wanted to look good for the camera .
Anyways, thanks for the pic, but I really gotta bring up the Beast From 20,000 Fathoms monster thing back. This really reminded me of it.

I only have a few things to suggest.
In the clip with the "girl and two monsters", it is my opinion that the girl is the monster. The "monsters" are in a bulky form similar to the armor a soldier is seen wearing earlier, the one who says "there is nothing to fear".
I think the "girl" is the monster, and it looks as if it's sucking in the soldier (there's a slurping noise in the background).
Also when the cam looked into the sky, you could clearly see "fireflies", as in floating random lights.
I'm still wondering if it's a monster, or monsters.

Is the "fireflies" scene you're referring to at about 0:34 into the trailer? I was looking at that one, too. After a while, though, I concluded those lights were searchlights aimed up at the top of the building. I had to see the brighter version before I could make up my mind on that. Thoughts?

Silhoutte Might not be anything, might be something, but the rear haunch of the leg as the creature(if that's what it is) passes through the light appears to be covered with pustules, or sac-like openings. Sort of like the backs of certain frogs who hatch and carry their young on their torso. When the time comes for spawning, the young emerge and either cling, or fall off.
beautiful work, iwearthepants

Does anyone else notice that when "Marlena" is expanding she resembles Violet from "Charlie/Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory"?
I think it's weird that a woman is expanding and screaming 6 feet away from a guy who just sits there and continues reading and writing like nothing is happening.

Maybe she's one of the first to "explode" or whatever, and he is recording it for posterity, or whatever? Weird, anyway.
Oh, and those frogs with the holes to give birth out of? Good old-fashioned nightmare fuel right there. Yuck.

Shit!
Okay, watch it again and go to 1:32. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgC2wvTdXK4
Now look in the bottom left corner. SOMETHING moves behind the girl left of Marlena. It then begins visible again walking towards her before it cuts off. It's in the bottom left corner. Someone or something is definitely there.
