Another image has been making its way around movie sites on the web claiming to be part of the viral marketing for Super 8, but like the last one, I'm going to call it as totally unrelated to this movie. io9 and Movie Web are reporting that this image and a related video of a little girl talking about her experience on a movie set, are related to Super 8. The image first appeared on a hunting facebook page and has since blown up. The image shows a strange creature down on all fours running through the woods towards a camera. It was first posted as being completely real in that supposedly a hunter caught the creature on camera as it was racing towards him... Then it was picked up as a part of the Super 8 viral because a "source close to the production" confirmed it... and finally it's now being passed off as part of the viral marketing for Resistance 3, a new Playstation 3 game coming out. Personally I don't really know what to believe, but I'm pretty confident in saying that this is not part of the Super 8 viral campaign, but like anything, I guess you never know. You can find the image above and all the sources below, and you can form your own conclusions.
Movie Sites Running the story: io9, Movie Web
Resistance 3 Viral??
Original Facebook Post
awwww i was really hoping it was part of it, that image is insanely scary lol
You can tell it’s fake because the date on the picture says 2010. Not 1970-1980. Hahaha
the creature looks like meagan and chris!!!!!!!!!!
i know isnt it scary how similar it looks to me?
Nah; it cant be related to super 8. Super 8 takes place on 1978; this image is from the last month
we have nothing to suggest the whole film is totally set in the 70’s.
Still i’m pretty sure if they where going to show us something from the movie they would make us work a little harder for it.
It has nothing to do with Super 8. The image first appeared on a news broadcast, when a teenager, who wanted to remain nameless, sent it in claiming to have seen this. It has been debunked as photo-shopped. It has absolutely zero involvement with Super 8. Just so everyone knows. I’m sure you can youtube the clip of the news, & it is a real news channel & the real people, so don’t think it’s viral from Super 8.
My question is ,why not? Why can’t it be part of super 8 . The weird thing aboot the date is that it was the same time Josh met his black market fish friend.
I don’t think that this dude in the forest is the super 8 creature but maybe something that survived the whole 70s show . Maybe a offspring or a pet most likely its baby .
the picture got me more stoked for S8 when i thought it might be apart of it.
so i’m gonna just believe that it’s apart of it. lol
I highly doubt that’s the real creature for Super 8. But the creature is not that bad for a monster movie, get rid of the glowing eyes though.
It’s a 4Chan picture. Seen that a long time ago. Like a year+
there’s a facebook from Josh Minker, he wrote this:
You will soon find an answer to all of your life’s questions.
12 26 10 20 18 15 7 12…
Could it be a fake??
Unfortunatly there was about three Josh Minkers on Facebook,
and all say the same sort of stuff.
those other two were trolls from unforum. compare the posts from the other two to the original facebook josh minker. and besides, why did facebook officially remove the other two trolls and leave the original Josh Minker?think the bad robot ARG team contacted Facebook to remove the false ones.
UGH! I dont know how to email the publisher of the website but there is a set video of super 8 at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UE10kgZrUA
There have been a bunch of set videos posted on YouTube, but I chose not to post them here as they could be considered spoilers more so than pictures of the set could be…
There’s A New CHAT available!!! Check it out!!!
No this is not linked to Super 8, I have seen this picture before.. I almost want to say before Cloverfield as fan art…. just food for thought.
This is viral picture for resistance 3 a video game for PS3. They announced so on Spike tv for the VGA’s
I dont think it matters if its real or not. it made me pee my pants lol. Try brightning the picture its even scarier 🙂
These are pictures from a dear cam video. I heard the video is out there but where the F is it??!!
Hey ive seen some creature like that on a video on youtube here is the link if you can see the same: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfMUk1MV3rw its just like the picture in the woods!
i know that three dots (depend on how they are placed) mean therefore or because.
lol that is the creature, it looks just like the creature they show in the teaser. you see it here http://i41.tinypic.com/314e4k9.jpg
it was going around where i live for a little while as a text saying that someone had captured that on their woodland surveillance camera.
