2. Hud (Cloverfield)
Paramount PicturesThrust into action when a giant monster rampages through New York, Hud was just trying to film his friends leaving party when disaster struck. Like the people who instantly picked up their video cameras when two planes hit the World Trade Centre on 9/11, Hud decided that people were really going to want to see what went down. So as his friend Robs surprise party is interrupted by an even bigger surprise, Hud takes it upon himself to document everything. From Lady Libertys severed head landing inches from him, to the helicopter he is in crash landing, Huds footage is nothing short of spectacular. Hud is a new breed of hero for the YouTube generation. Like a video blogger that actually has something interesting to document, Hud screams and runs his way through an incredible calamity of monstrous proportions.
