Fantastic essay, I loved the history of monster movies and particularly the juxtaposition with Lovecraft's quote. I do think, however, that like Japan's use of Godzilla to engage the topic of atomic catastrophe, Cloverfield most certainly engages 9/11 (in an intelligent way).
Cheers!

I gave this essay a plug over on www.flamesrising.com this morning.

Well written.

I loved The Host and was hoping that the new trend of good monster movie making would extend to Cloverfield. Now I know it will surpass my expectations.
I was excited about the film before and now I am very excited.
Thanks for this post.

I haven't seen this movie yet but if it provoked such a deep and respectful response from you, I'm convinced.
