Way back in 2008 a movie came out with very little mass media marketing but with this little subtle viral style of marketing. Cloverfield was meant to be a monster movie designed for America and it became something so much more. It was a universe in and of itself almost immediately. Then a few weeks ago we got this surprising and mysterious little trailer for a movie called 10 Cloverfield Lane and then the Cloverfield hysteria was awakened within me. I was exceedingly excited to see this movie and find out exactly how it was tied to Cloverfield if at all.
Deserving of a deeper look, 10 Cloverfield Lane, snuck it's way into the big game commercial bonanza! With this trailer we pick apart a bit of the mystery surrounding this new movie and still leave so many questions to be answered.
There's a movie that was being made called The Cellar. It was later renamed Valencia and later renamed again 10 Cloverfield Lane. Is this a coincidence with the film Cloverfield or is it somehow tied to the found footage movie from 2008? Turns out...it's a sequel...of sorts.
