Questions rise aplenty around 10 Cloverfield Lane, a “spiritual cousin” to Matt Reeves’ 2008 modern classic Cloverfield. If we’re seeing past this oh-this-new-film-just-came-out-of-nowhere-is-it-a-cloverfield-sequel marketing hoopla, it appears that fans and creators alike can’t point exactly what the new film is―a direct sequel? Or a rip-off entirely different from its predecessor? The film’s director, Dan Trachtenberg, took a second for a brief Reddit A.M.A. to set things straight.
On his film’s connection to the 2008 original, Trachtenberg is pretty clear: “10 Cloverfield Lane is its own separate story; they are not connected narratives,” he notes to one Redditor. “They’re on different timelines. But, I think the exciting thing is that now Cloverfield is becoming a universe, and there are some connections. And hopefully there will continue to be more connections,” he tells another. He later expounds on this “becoming a universe,” clarifying that it is, rather than a literal cinematic universe, Clover-verse, as fans would dearly call it, is “this platform to tell really unique, original stories that are truly bound by that same tone, that same sensibility. Always very intense and scary and unique takes on familiar genres.”
“So basically a new breed of Twilight Zone,” replies one Redditor. And though Trachtenberg couldn’t reply back, it’s likely that it is―genre cinema’s own “The Twilight Zone”.

The questions about the film itself come surprisingly sparse, with Redditors more anxious about Trachtenberg’s short film Portal: No Escape, and the possibility of him making a full-length feature. The short is a rip-off of the popular puzzle game by Valve, an odd choice it seems for any filmmaker what with a whole selection of more story-packed titles. Trachtenberg says: “I think it was cool to adapt a puzzle game. A puzzle game is very unlike Halo or Uncharted; those games are very cinematic properties. And taking a game like Portal that I thought at the time especially was inherently uncinematic, and trying to figure out a way to make that really feel like that could be a big awesome movie, was really exciting.”

There’s also the question of “the best route into the industry,” with Trachtenberg being a young filmmaker and being able to do his first feature film at this scale. He counsels: “I think that you should be making things as much as you possibly can. I remember getting really good advice from a teacher of mine who said, “Practice doesn’t make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect.” So, you should certainly start out doing all that you possibly can. But at a certain point, don’t make things just to make them; start to really make them as best that you possibly can.”
