Cloverfield: 8/10
After watching the film, I came up with several tips of surviving a monster attack on your city.
Avoid Bridges
At any time during this disaster or attack, do not follow the flock of people when they say
"Hey, they are evacuating the city, let us use the bridge!"
Bad idea! The first things to be taken out within an hour of the attack are the bridges because they are an easy target to destroy.
Avoid going in to subway tunnels.
If a monster is attacking the city, avoid dark tunnels. Crazy messed up things can see you in the dark, but we can't see them. Oh yeah, try to avoid getting bitten by one of the various things you may see in the tunnel. Why? Because if you get attacked or cut by this thing and survive longer than 20 minutes, you are so fucked. Remember the movie(s), Alien, Aliens, Alien Ressurection, Alien vs. Predator, Alien vs. Predator requiem and The Mist where a citizen was attacked by a very strange looking flying thing and the body didn't react so well? Yeah, same thing is going to happen in any situation involving monsters attacking you.
Avoid the middle of the city
The monster or alien is definitely going to take out the middle of the city and make its domain. Seriously, if you do not have a mental disorder and have a bit of common sense, the way to run is the opposite direction, not towards the fucking monster. For example, if you watched the film War of the Worlds (2005), you noticed Tom Cruise's character's son decided he wanted to help the military by fighting the various aliens and charged over the hill. The kid should have died because he had no chance against the aliens, and I won't ruin the ending of the WOTW for you, but Earth exploded.
Avoid helicopter rides
If you want to escape the city, don't get on the helicopter. It looks safe, but they have a tendency to crash when the military tries to blow up the city or the monster while you are trying to leave. Movie examples of helicopters crashing due to massive explosions are the following: The Predator, Alien vs. Predator Requiem, and Resident Evil 2.
Avoid standing right below, next to, or around the monster/alien
If you come in contact with the monster or alien, do not stare blankly up at the monster or alien and assume it is going to avoid you. It is going to fucking tear out your head and eat it for a snack. I suggest an attempt at running the other way, you might survive, but the chances are very low.
If you any tips on other places to avoid while being attacked by a monster, add them.
