10 Cloverfield Lane (2016) ★★★★☆

★★★★☆  – Highly Recommended!

After getting in a car accident, a woman is held in a shelter with two men, who claim the outside world is affected by a widespread chemical attack.

Runtime: 1h 44min
Genre:  Science fiction psychological thriller

From the director that gave us that nifty ‘Portal’ fan film a few years ago, Dan Trachtenberg has come a long way with his debut feature. A great premise and a marketing campaign that suggested links to 2008’s ‘Cloverfield’. The film is its own entity with a theater-like quality, richly developed characters, and a survival story that echoes ‘Z for Zachariah’. Be prepared for a fantastic final climax.
