Cloverfield Coming to DVD

Cloverfield carries on the tradition of classic monster movies like Godzilla and King Kong, but it brings a modern twist to the genre. Filmed from the perspective of a hand held camcorder, it makes the viewer a voyeur to the action and destruction, with shaky, unprofessional footage and a lack of polish that makes it all feel more real.

That’s not to say the movie isn’t full of amazing special effects and Hollywood-caliber thrills. It’s a top notch monster movie despite its gimmick, one that keeps you on the edge of your seat for its entire running time. And yes, you do get a nice view of the elusive monster at some point in the movie, so don’t worry about all those teasing trailers that didn’t offer up so much as a glimpse. But you’ve gotta see the whole thing if you want to see the goods. So what are you waiting for?
