10 Movies That Deserve a Spin-Off More Than Paranormal Activity

8. Cloverfield - "Militant Monster"

The idea for this movie has been floating around for a while, and I'd say it's quite the winner. It's the events of the film Cloverfield from the military perspective. We saw through the eyes of the main characters in the first movie that this enormous monster wasn't the only creepy crawler attacking the city, and then we got a pretty terrifying picture as to how the army is going about quarantining victims of the attack. So, we could expect more action, more sciencey voo-doo, and a brand new set of characters to give us a brand new perspective on what went down that night. And, maybe, we'll get to see just how the city recovers from the monster attack. If it even does at all. And a part of me doesn't want to give up T.J. Miller's Hud and Odette Annable's Beth, but I'm willing to make that compromise for a more complete, eager, and ambitious film.

Cameron Carpenter is an aspiring screenwriter, current film and journalism student, and self-diagnosed cinephile, which only sounds bad in certain circles. Devoted fan of comics, movies, theater, Jesus Christ, Sidney Lumet, and Peter O'Toole, he sometimes spends too much time on his Scribd and comicbookmovie.com, but doesn't think you're one to judge, devoted reader. You can follow him on Twitter to watch him talk to people you didn't know exist. Oh, and Daredevil is quite the big deal around here (my head).
