Cloverfield
January 18, 2008You have no idea how bad i want to see this new movie Cloverfield.
Basically... it's a monster attacking New York movie, but it's told from the handy-cam perspective of a group of 25+ year olds trying to flee the city and rescue their friends. It kinda looks a bit "Blair Witch"esque... but I'm sure it's going to be much much better.
J.J. Abrams is the producer... and if that name doesn't ring a bell, you aren't a fan of Lost on ABC. It's the same producer, so of course, a pretty cool viral marketing campaign has been going on the internet for a while. It's all designed to hook you into the realm of the movie.
The main characters all have pages on Myspace... there are fake global corporation pages on the internet. It's a fairly new tactic being used by a few to tie in the online crowd... and it's working.
Anywho, it's showing at the Cinemark in town (which is good because I won't go to the mall theater) so hopefully I'll get a chance to watch it this weekend.
