Synopsis

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 sudden jolt shakes the revellers. The crowd quietens down to watch news reports of an earthquake and then rushes to the roof to assess the damage.

As a fireball explodes on the distant horizon, a power failure follows almost immediately. 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, and monstrous...

Shot entirely through the group's camcorder, the shaky camera action further heightens the sense of terror as the six young friends attempt to stay one step ahead of an unknown - and seemingly unstoppable - force that is rampaging its way through New York City.

From the extraordinary talented J J Abrams (LOST and ALIAS TV series) and director Matt Reeves comes CLOVERFIELD, one of the most terrifying, groundbreaking and critically acclaimed thrillers to hit the big screen in 2008.
