Snap, same here. I love my monster movies too. Cloverfeild is a fantastic film, if you can stomach the little-over-the-top-camera-shake. D-Wars is awesome. The film was never released here in the UK cinamas, so when I read the reviews and the hype of it being a "suprise $75million budget movie" I thought I would give it a try on dvd. I was not dissapointed. Trust me, you would not believe the FX in this film cost so little compared to todays big budget films. The fight scenes are well orchestrated on the screen.
