Cloverfield
Some Thing Has Found Us…
On the eve of his departure for Japan, Rob (Michael Stahl-David) sees his
going-away party as an opportunity to confess unresolved feelings and tie up
loose ends. His agenda takes an unexpected turn when a jolt shakes the
revelers.
The crowd quiets down to watch news reports of an earthquake, then rushes to
the roof to assess the damage. A fireball explodes on the distant horizon.
A power failure follows. Confusion gives way to panic as the partygoers stumble
through the blackout and into the streets. Amid the human screams and one
inhuman roar, Rob and his friends must traverse a landscape that has changed,
overtaken by something otherworldly, terrifying, monstrous…
