My non-spoiler review of Cloverfield.

This was absolutely the scariest movie I’ve ever seen.

I can’t believe that there would be such a force that’s so indestructible.  So unstoppable. A force of nature.

I’m talking about the camera.

That thing doesn’t break.  It survives buildings falling down, people being killed in horrible ways, and mass destruction.  And the battery never dies.

The movie gave me nightmares. I dreamed that a bunch of Cloverfield-style video cameras flapped around me using little tiny wings, just like those flying toasters in the old ‘90s screensavers. They whispered to me malevolently.  They said “You think you’ve got a problem from the monster?  We are the true evil in the world. We will laugh as humanity is destroyed.  We will film the destruction, and we will put it on YouTube, and then we will ‘Favorite’ it, like, a lot.”
