1-18-08 monster info?

JoBloJoBlo

Ah, the power of the internet: to take things from fun intrigue to annoying overkill at impossible speed.

For example 1-18-08, aka CLOVERFIELD, aka UNTITLED JJ ABRAMS PROJECT, aka THAT MONSTER MOVIE YOU DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT AND NOW SUDDENLY CAN’T AVOID. Guess what? Here’s some more unverified info about the formerly clandestine flick: Dread Central says that there won’t just be one giant statue-smashing stomper busting up the Big Apple, but also several mini-monsters chasing trendy Manhattanites through the city streets. Spoiler!

In addition, DC says “It’s not Godzilla or Voltron (duh) or even Cthulu; anyone expecting there to be some sort of elaborately detailed backstory may be in for a disappointment. Expect an old-fashioned monster movie retold in a very modern Blair Witch sort of way.” Fine, I will continue to ignore the irksome LOST-style inscrutability and just be there in a few months when the carnage actually starts.
