In an interview with Rolling Stone, J.J. Abrams confirmed a few details about Cloverfield, the film and the monster. The creature was indeed named Clover and was absolutely killed at the film’s end.

“Yes, he’s dead. Ultimately the bombs kill him,” he said.

The producer admitted that his crew has two theories about the object seen dropping into the water during the final flashback at Coney Island. Either one could spawn the sequel, which he admits is being discussed but not actively being prepped.
