Preview: Super 8

I'll keep this brief so you can experience for yourself the wonder of the latest trailer for J J Abrams Super 8 released on 19th August this year. Set in 1979, the story follows a group of youngsters as they attempt to shoot their first film on their Super 8 camera, when as you can see from the trailer, they witness a devastating train crash and its top secret 'contents' escaping into the night...

Details remain scarce on the juicy specifics, but it's already been likened to an E.T-style adventure (with Speilberg as producer) due to its nostalgic and somewhat familiar territory, but with a nice dose of fear for good measure.

Super 8 looks promising and, amongst the inevitably over rated army of Summer blockbusters to be released over the coming months, seems like one of the most interesting new films out there. Have a watch and see what you think...
