I think maybe you have the wrong address?

So, we just finished watching 10 Cloverfield Lane

I think it's going to take me 24 hours to really get my head around the whole thing but here is my initial reaction:



First, a big screw you to the person that designed the DVD cover art, because on the back of the DVD there is a pretty spoilery image. It didn't ruin the movie for me, per se, but I did end up *waiting* for that image to happen.

It is unfortunate that was just watched the episode Ted from Buffy Season 2. Just...lots of the same red flags.

I know this was a semi-sequel to Cloverfield but all I could think about was Steven Spielberg's take on War of the Worlds, though I think that might have been because of the noise the alien ships made.

Yeah, I'm not sure if I loved or hated the last 20 minutes...



More coherent thoughts later, maybe. I'll have to dig around and find rhoda_rants's post about the movie from last month -- anyone else see it and/or post about it?? linky linky please!

We saw it a month or so ago because my husband really wanted to see it. I found it really engaging throughout.

SPOILER WARNING

Even though the movie's only PG-13, I spent the last twenty minutes or so watching it curled up at my husband's side - my head pressed against his shoulder. It was very tense. I kept wondering if the Goodman character was still alive and kept expecting him to pop back up.

YES! I kept waiting for a disgusting skull man to jump out at the last minute! Glad they didn't go for a cheap thrill.

Yeah, that or John Goodman with some half normal face/half Freddy Krueger deal.

Glad they didn't go for it, too. Though maybe they're just saving that for the sequel LOL.
