Someone has seen 'Cloverfield' ...
...and has lived to tell about it.
"Cloverfield" is the super-secret J.J. Abrams-produced monster movie. Paramount has been waging a stealth campaign on it, showing teaser trailers, barely giving away the plot, using secret names for the project, strong-arming journos into compliance or risk facing the combined mighty wrath of Abrams and the studio. It set for release Jan. 18.
But last week...well, last week there was a secret screening of the movie on the Paramount lot. People in suits saw it. The movie is close to being done but for some effects shots.
The person we talked to was very afraid of Abrams and Paramount too, but we did find out a few things:
1) The whole movie is in the mold of "The Blair Witch Project"/shaky home video camera. "It was bit disorienting in the beginning, but then you get really into it," said our guy.
2) Monster...or monsters? There's more than one!
3) Our guy liked it: "It definitely lives up to the hype."
There you have it: a vague opinion from someone you don't know. (By Borys Kit)
