The One With ’10 Cloverfield Lane’

Remember the mysterious marketing for found-footage thriller ‘Cloverfield’ (2008)?

Farewell party with nameless attractive people, hokey dialogue and sudden fiery mayhem with the rolling head of the Statue of Liberty in NYC? youtu.be/IvNkGm8mxiM

Ah, those were the days.

Despite the silly human actors you ended up hating by the end of it (except you, Odette Yustman – now Odette Annable. Look her up), who knew they’d end up making and releasing ’10 Cloverfield Lane’ this year?

A ‘spiritual successor’ according to Producer J.J. Abrams that dropped out of nowhere (Drew Goddard of ‘The Cabin in the Woods’ fame and showrunner of ‘Daredevil’ Season 1 on Netflix is also Executive Producer), the less you know when you go in theatres, the better. (Tip: Avoid seeing the latest movie poster at the cinema at all costs!)

I could spam my timeline with marketing pics of Mary Elizabeth Winstead looking worried in a tanktop to go see the film, but if you’re done with superhero team up movies for awhile or live action adaptions based on childhood animation flicks, take a chance and see this emotional rollercoaster that defies genre conventions and audience expectations.

Disclaimer: Starts off a bit slow, but man, usually jolly John Goodman is so good in it, man.
