"Cloverfield" Alternate Ending Screen Shots
Source:ShockTillYouDrop.com
April 5, 2008

My, my, my... Paramount opened a can of words yesterday when press copies of the forthcoming Cloverfield DVD arrived in mailboxes (including ours). Before we get into some of the new clues and viral marketing that have cropped up because of this release, let's take a quick look at the two alternate endings the disc presents.

SPOILERS AHEAD!

Both present the exact same ending with Rob and Beth whimpering in the tunnel before the bombs drop and nuke the monster.

Alternate ending #1 substitutes the ferris wheel coda for some footage on the subway platform featuring Rob chasing Beth around before their trip to Coney Island.

Alternate ending #2, as director Matt Reeves explains in his commentary, suggests that Rob and Beth may have been rescued and also gives the viewer a chance to see the moment the camera was found. Below you get a glimpse of a man cleaning Rob's camera lens post-destruction... Otherwise, no other new footage, per se.

Now, onto the speculation. A symbol (seen below) has been making the rounds on various Cloverfield sites - including Tagruato. This same symbol adorns the security sticker sealing the DVD and is accompanied by a "Property of the U.S. Government" stamp. What's it mean? Beats us. Is it simply one more layer to this film's secrets? It's obviously a sword of sorts - what does the "410" stand for? Release date for Cloverfield 2, perhaps?

In addition to these images and clues, the extra features reveal a new website that has yet to be launched, which I'm sure will have plenty of clues hiding within it. Mark it in your bookmarks and keep your eyes peeled to Cloverfieldfiles.com

Also something important to note is that on the extra features the creature designer confirms that the monster is in fact an infant. Could we see the mother in the sequel? Can you imagine how big she is?!
