GODZILLA GENRE meets BLAIR WITCH PROJECT GENRE
I safely assume that no matter what anyone tells you, you’re going to see “Transformers” so you’re also going to see the big surprising trailer that plays in front of it. The teaser starts by telling us JJ Abrams is producing the film and continues with a few minutes shaky-cam footage of a party and then a end-of-the-world looking event starting to happen. Everybody freaks out and runs into the street with fireballs flying and the Statue of Liberty’s head sailing past them. The release date is shown (1-18-0
and then…nothing. No title.
So what the heck is this big movie event thing? According to Aint it Cool News it’s going to be a giant monster film (it’s being referred to as “the parasite”) and it’s being shot with home video cameras to give it a POV of people experiencing the attack in New York. It’s called, right now anyways, “Cloverleaf.”
I can’t decide if this is really gutsy or stupid. Everyone keeps telling me the Korean giant monster movie that came out this year “The Host” was the new sourdough toast with awesome spread on it. Are the giant monster movies coming back and if so, how do we keep Roland Emmerich’s hands off it?
