Super Bowl 50: 10 Cloverfield Lane Spot

It was less than a month ago that J.J. Abrams' production company Bad Robot revealed the existence of a film no one was anticipating. Now, with a Super Bowl 50 spot that pours on the intrigue (without revealing a thing, really) 10 Cloverfield Lane is officially vexing. Starring John Goodman, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and John Gallagher Jr., 10 Cloverfield Lane's latest spot at least hints at the return of the beast from the original Cloverfield, the film Abrams calls a "blood relative" to this one.  The plot details are this; a young woman (Winstead) wakes up from a brutal car accident in an underground bunker, watched over by a man (Goodman) who claims that he saved her not just from the wreck, but from a chemical attack that has made the outside world toxic. She's trapped there with him.  The new spot gives us a few sparse, ominous details, none so more than the final sound—a roar of some kind, something that sounds a whole lot like the scream of a certain gigantic monster that destroyed the world in the original CloverfieldGo ahead and give this a look, maybe you'll parse more details.
