Description

Cloverfield takes place in a Manhattan that, for a few brief moments, thinks an earthquake has just occurred. Instead, it is the heavy footfall of an encroaching monster, dinosaur-big and angry as hell. Chaos inevitably ensues.

Produced by the man behind TV’s Lost, Cloverfield is a trip into cinema’s favourite arena: the end of the world. Filmed as if on a hand-held camera throughout, Cloverfield is not easy to watch, but those who like edge-of-the-seat drama should be in anxiety-ridden heaven for its taut hour-and-a-half.

“It is extremely rare in modern cinema to see a film that is genuinely new. Not just excellent but properly like nothing you’ve laid your eyes on before,” Empire

“The film lacks the polish, characterisation and narrative neatness of Spielberg’s War Of The Worlds, but it does convey a convincing atmosphere of panic and helplessness,” Daily Mail.

“This is horror unplugged. The panic is exquisite. The unnerving novelty about Cloverfield is the quality of shock. Fantastic.”The Times
