5 hardcore reasons, smaller creatures
Still lots of speculation whether there is or not

I know this has been talked in small bits about in threads but not like this. But since its gettin down to the wire to the release, I wanted to piece together 5 hardcore reason of evidence that there are smaller creatures/parasties/sporelike mutations aside from the big guy, since there is still alot of specualtion of concrete evidence:

5 reasons for smaller monster/parasites/sporelike mutations:

1. "We have a bite"
Bite=teeth=marks=infectious=smaller creatures, period. How they say it "We have a bite", sounds to me theyve been rolling in with bites the WHOLE night, nothing new to the medical team. If they said "Oh wow what is that mark, could it be a bite? it looks like it!"...That would then mean its a new, never seen before. Also, If the huge monster took a bite out of whoever that was reffering to, it wouldnt be a small bite, it would be a whole SWALLOW, say goodbye to that person.

2."Those things came out of nowhere!"
now give me a break, i see alot of speculation that "those things" refer to debris flying out of nowhere or missles or whatnot, i would beleive that if it was debris it would be more along the lines of "that rock came out of nowhere, or that missle came out of nowhere...but "those things?"..save it.

3. Fix the wounded, feed the children:
"In the original apple trailer, there is a very fast shot of medical staff attending to the wounded with gauze and bandages, there is one guy in front that has either a small claw mark across is left shoulder, something that would not be caused by flying debris or the big monster himself, cause instead of a small claw mark he would be ripped in shreds.

4. Lily's marked up, from the floor up:
In the promotional photo of of Lily and Rob pushing against the door, u clearly see claw marks on lilys upper arm. not cause by flying debris or the big monster, the marks are to clean cut to be otherwise. And someone to put so much stress and effort on closing a door shut like they are is because of smaller creatures.

5. Protect yourself, wrap it up!:
Hazmat suits deal with contagious diseases/infections/viruses spread by bodily fluid transfer as through direct contact ala bite secretion which is foreign. Marlena got bite, internal bleeding.

Though i have a feeling that you're gonna get ALOT of doubters and 'nay-sayers', I agree that there will be smaller creatures/mutations. I mean, i'll admit- when AICN first said something about there being 'smaller creatures' I was kinda pissed about it... but it's something different.

If the monster just came on and everyone got sick, it would be just another re-make of "The Beast from 20,000 fathoms."

"rolling with bites the whole night" funny,I believe your right. I believe in the small parasite theory, thanks for putting all the reasons on the table.

I figured the "We got a bite" thing came from the fact that, off camera, some guys have just came in from the local KFC (which was really busy) and the whole medical crew are starving.

I'm probably wrong, but I thought I'd throw it out there Smile

I reckon you're right. Claw marks, door holding and those spore-like explosions in the sky. I'd be a fast way to spread em across a large area.

And I say again, the monster could have thin tentacles with mouths on the end rather than one big mouth.

There is no 'period', four words is not hard evidence.

This could easily mean the debris from the explosion, how about 'you' save your attitude?

Looks like a scratch to me, scratches can be made by anything.

Again, they look like scratches to me, this is not evidence of smaller monsters, it's evidence that something cut her arm.

This isn't evidence, hazmat suits are also worn in a radiation leak, by your logic there must be a rad leak somewhere because they're wearing hazmat suits.

Haz = Hazardous
Mat = Materials

It's common sense to wear a hazmat suit when dealing with foreign materials. They could easily not know what they're dealing with and wear the suits as a precaution.

I think u should also add the "BLOCKING THE DOOR SCENE" which we saw on one of the promo pix. people said "oh ye they could be blocking the door cause of the monsters huge tentacles...but come on ...really...if it was the size of a skyscraper then it would just ripp the whole building into pieces....its like he said...lots of smaller monsters/mutations...possibly human sized...maybe half or so...just about being able to fit through a normal sized door..

and another thing is why would they say "those things came out of no where" i mean if they just mean debris why would they use this quote and make people notice it . obviously it means something and is important

I really hope there are smaller monsters, then the army/national guard/marines whatever branch of the military is there would have a helluva hard time actually trying to bring down the big baddy. The scratches on her arm look like painfully deep.
We can speculate until we are blue in the face but we're not going to know till the movie comes out. Unless it leaks that is and you want to find out. If there is smaller monsters it will be interesting to see what happens when the big baddy dies/goes back into the ocean and they are still about. But i doubt we will find those answers out until they come out with the sequel.

maybe the monster dies and little ones are still around, it would be hard to catch those lil critters... or maybe we dont even find out what happens in detail, if the tape ends with rob beth still hiding someplace and dieing. Maybe we find out something in the beginning when they show the camera being retrieved and talk about it i dont know really tho Rolling Eyes

I tend to believe that there are smaller ones and hope that there is, as i feel that would be more suspenseful.
The only thing that's causing me to think that there may NOT be smaller ones is that they are marketing it in the way to lean us TOWARD the fact that there are smaller ones. Maybe that's just part of their strategy, but it seems as if they'd keep this more of a mystery.

I think in one thread someone stated Lena was Jamie's roommate. What if Marlina (who I assume is "Lena") got a hold of the item (evidence) that Teddy sent to Jamie that was to be kept frozen. This item is possibly a living creature that was not frozen by Jamie because of her disbelief of Teddies message. Then what if this item then bit Marlina sometime before the party. This may be why she looks so sick at the party and could explain why the Army/medics were so surprised by her being bitten as she is the only one they have found so far.

Just an idea?

Probably Mutant Sea Louse, they explain alot:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_louse
what it doesn't tell you is sea louse mating habits: the male mates with the female and the eggs cause the female to swell. the babies then hatch, when they hatch they eat the female alive. and then they cause the female to explode. Explains ALOT, i tell you!!!!!!!
