alien but is from the very bottom of the ocean.
Umm... the water off Ny is pretty darn shallow, I loved the movie but if that's the official explanation it's not a good one
preferably the satellite caused the mutations... because scientifically things mutate on space craft exposed to solar radiation in very strange ways
and very rapidly... anything along those lines would be okay
But a satellite wouldn't actually land on anything floating off coney island except maybe a Puerto Rican in a floating lawn chair or maybe Jimmy
Hoffa if it hits bottom...
lol... creature spawned off coney island is really amusing...
I could go on this concept all night... I'm picturing it being made of 40's of Old English all fused together with used tampons and crack vials
Has anyone seen the waters off Coney Issland in mid summer lol...
I can believe a creature rises out of there to destroy the Earth all right... but the satellite falling is a totally unneccesary factor...
and Living things.... what was it seriously? Like if Godzilla was an irradiated dinosaur... Cloverfield born off Coney Island would be a mix
between...realistically and seriously... it would have to be Part Horseshoe Crab and Part Hepatitis...lol which is actually what it looked like
