Synopsis

In the summer of 1979, a group of friends in a small Ohio town witness a catastrophic train crash while making a Super 8 movie and soon suspect that it was not an accident. Shortly after, unusual disappearances and inexplicable events begin to take place in town, and the local Deputy, Jack Lamb (Kyle Chandler) tries to uncover the truth that develops into something more terrifying than any of them could have imagined.

Directed by J J Abrams from his original script, the Bad Robot / Amblin Entertainment Production is produced by Steven Spielberg, J J Abrams and Bryan Burk.
