Anybody watch it yet? I loved the original Cloverfield so whenever I heard about this movie I was immediately excited. It's been certified fresh and has the high rating of 91% on Rotten Tomatoes. Seems to be a sleeper hit. Thoughts? NO SPOILERS! Image

Oooh, me and the hubby are gonna have to watch this if it's actually good. I dunno why, but I had low hopes for this sequel for some reason.

Its actually not related to Cloverfield. Its another film that they renamed to Cloverfield lane.





the new movie 10 Cloverfield Lane started out as an unrelated thriller called The Cellar (or Valencia). And then producer J.J. Abrams decided to rename it 10 Cloverfield Lane, and make it a “sister movie” to his 2008 sleeper hit.

Review I read said it was good, but should have remained named something else.

I want a proper Cloverfield sequel Image

Well that's misleading... Oh well, might still be worth a watch I suppose.

I watched it yesterday. It's supposed to be a "spiritual sequel" to Cloverfield. I really enjoyed it. It had a great mix of horror and thriller elements. John Goodman was awesome.

It's similar to Cloverfield in that it leaves you with more questions than answers.

As do I. Absolutely loved that movie. I actually get a little pissed when people try to crap on it. I have to hold myself back from explaining how wrong they actually are.

That's what I read as well. Spiritual successor. I really enjoy Mary Elizabeth Winstead, so it would have been a watch even without the name. I'm glad it's getting overwhelming positive reviews.

Hmm, after seeing the trailer I thought this would be just another cash in with a big name but sounds like it might be good after all. I wasn't exactly a fan of Cloverfield, I've always felt that the found footage thing works best in anthologies rather than full movies or it risks becoming old pretty fast. Maybe using Cloverfield in the title was Abrams' way of making sure the film got noticed.

Just to clarify, 10 Cloverfield Lane is not a found footage film. It's a straight up thriller/horror film.

So you would be a VHS fan then? Haha, the second one is better IMO.

Haha, they were in my mind when I wrote the post.Image I'll have to say the second one is my favorite as well, you can't top gopro zombie.Image Haven't seen viral yet, but that seems like a zero budget cash grab.
