destroys cloverfield x 10!!

Rating: 8/10 (20 March 2008)

i picked this movie to watch as a nap/pre-work film.....always heard of it as a lame-to-mediocre film....a 'rainy Sunday film'.....and discovered it was frigging awesome!! Acting is about par with Lord of Illusions per say, but the story, King's multiple psychological dilemmas, scary and beautiful aliens, and an awesome tragic ending make up for all.... way above 'langoliers' and way below 'shining'...about on par with (and a little better than) 'it'.... but much smarter and thought evoking....it's nice to finally experience a horror movie again when thinking and imagining is more frightening than cgi and gross out crap...... Long live old school real HORRROR...!!!
it's like Cloverfield should have been times ten!
p.s. just read that Gaiman's 'thief of always' is about to start production!!!!
