Cloverfield Page #6

Synopsis: Cloverfield follows five New Yorkers from the perspective of a hand-held video camera. The movie is exactly the length of a DV Tape and a sub-plot is established by showing bits and pieces of video previously recorded on the tape that is being recorded over. The movie starts as a monster of unknown origin destroys a building. As they go to investigate, parts of the building and the head of the Statue of Liberty come raining down. The movie follows their adventure trying to escape and save a friend, a love interest of the main character.

in lower Manhattan.

Nearby, in New York Harbor, we're

in the middle of the harbor

near the Statue of Liberty.

-Once again...

-Dude, that's really close.

-... there's no way to know if any...

-That's really, really close.

That's true. Do you think

we could see something from the roof?

-I don't know. Maybe.

-J, wanna go to the roof?

Let's go see if we can see

something on the roof.

Come on, Jason.

We're not going up to the roof.

-Yeah, let's go up there.

-I don't think we should.

-No!

-That was really...

Just like tremors.

-Yeah, it's on the news downstairs.

-ls this the only lights that went out?

-I think they blew up the trains.

-No, a couple did.

-Some stayed on.

-Oh, man. What is going on?

Maybe you should've left town

a little bit earlier, right?

Shut up.

Oh, my God!

No, no, no.

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

Hud. Move. Hud!

Oh, God.

-Rob, you got a set of keys?

-Get out of here!

Right, did you look back?

Did anybody get hurt?

-I don't know.

Did anybody see Jason?

Oh, my God! Oh! Oh, sh*t!

Oh, Jesus Christ!

-Oh, God! Oh, God!

-Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

and we gotta get out of here, man!

I'm telling you!

-I'm so sorry.

-Where were you?

Hey, did you guys see that?

Did you guys just see that?

Go! Let's go!

-Hey, get down! Get down!

-You all right? You all right?

Yeah, did you guys see that?

Rob! Rob! Hey, Rob, I saw it! Rob!

-Rob.

-Rob, I saw it!

-What?

-What's he saying?

-It's alive.

Stay down, Lily! Get back!

He's going away now.

-Jason, what are you doing?

-Jason, where are you going?

Lily, just wait.

-Jason, don't go out...

-Jason, don't!

Lily, just wait here!

Hey, Rob! Rob!

-Oh, my God. Marlena?

-Oh, God.

Are you okay?

Wait, come here. Come here. Sit down.

It walked right through

that street over there.

That's what I'm trying to tell you.

It walked right over my head.

-What?

-That's the sound it's making.

You said you saw something, right?

So what did you see?
