    Take a trip to 10 Cloverfield Lane

    Take a nerve-wracking trip down 10 Cloverfield Lane - uncover dark secrets and unravel foreboding fear.

    If there’s one film that will definitely be the most talked about film in years, it’s 10 Cloverfield Lane. Telling the story of three people trapped in an underground bunker, this daring and no-nonsense psychological thriller will rip your nerves to pieces and truly blow your mind.

    After a shocking opening sequence that will knock you out of your seat, you are plunged into a realm where everything is dubious and a dark cloud of mystery keeps you in suspense until all is revealed in the awesome finale.

    Uncovering dark secrets

    Nothing is more exciting than uncovering dark secrets and unravelling foreboding fear. 10 Cloverfield Lane offers an ultimate emotional and physical exploration of the unknown and is a journey that leads to surprising twists and turns around every corner.

    A major factor that keeps you on the edge of your seat is stepping into the shoes of a young woman who finds herself in an underground bunker, and gradually uncovering the truth as the film progresses, and when all is revealed, the mystery remains.

    It’s an intimate experience with terrific performances by John Goodman as the unnerving tyrant who rules his kingdom in the bunker, with John Gallagher Jr and Elizabeth Winstead as two strangers whose lives intertwine and are radically altered.

    There are moments that you really feel at home in the bunker, without a care in the world, and times when you feel trapped and will do anything to escape its claustrophobic embrace.

    As if waking from a nightmare

    Under Dan Trachtenberg’s imaginative direction, 10 Cloverfield Lane is a cinematic experience that absolutely delivers what it promises. Trachtenberg allows us to get lost in moments of nothingness, where everything comes to a halt and the outside world ceases to exist, and then, as if waking from a nightmare, we suddenly realise that this trip down the rabbit hole is not as cosy as it seems.

    It’s a must-see thrill that you will definitely want to experience again - and one you should not know anything about before seeing it.

    Don't know anything until you do, really don't, you will cheat yourself out of a great experience. And even when you do, don't spoil it for anyone else.
