    Cloverfield - JJ Abrams

    Cloverfield

    I just wanted to let everyone know about a great film that was released last week in the US, called 'Cloverfield'. This film has been produced by legendary producer/writed/director, J.J. Abrams. In case you didn't know, he has also helped to create hugely successful movies/tv series such as: Lost, Alias, Armageddon.

    He announced two projects he is working on this year (2008). The 2 films are, 'Cloverfield' and 'Star Trek'. I'm not going to explain anything about the films, which leaves you to do some research [hint: try wikipedia ;)]

    However, I will leave the Cloverfield trailer below :)
