In the trailer you can see how they ape the style from the trailers, and listen carefully to the sound the monster makes. Sounds like they straight up ripped it off Paramount.

Yup, cash-in. They take advantage of the millions in marketing of the big films, and when people go to blockbuster and such they are very familiar with the mimicking title and cover - from what I read, they sometimes don't even realize it's not the movie in cinemas! It seems hard to believe, but that happens. And with the sales to rental foreign markets, they must be doing a great living!
In the Empire magazine article, one of the studios heads says that sometimes people write him wanting their money back for renting the movie, thinking it was the real deal when obviously it was not!

EDIT: Caerwiden beat me to it!

Oh... Asylum...

Very funny company with aggressive ripp-offs and coming outs at IMDb...
And the trailer!.. Interesting thing is, they've began to make the move after the first Cloverfield trailer, as far as I know, and - folks - they ARE rapid, hehe. And their first title was "Tokyo", but it wasn't such original, special and genial like the new one, hehe

I actually did a lot of research into this company for my undergrad. It's a fairly interesting approach, and it shows how uninformed a lot of people are when they rent their Pirates movies and wonder where Johnny Depp is.

Man, Lance Henriksen's career has gone down the crapper. It seems that every month he's in a new low budget movie that'll end up on the SciFi channel.
