JJ Abrams, producer of Lost and Alias.
It's a giant monster movie! Early rumors coined it "The American version of The Host."

Honestly, I'm psyched. I would love to see a successful Monster Movie (honestly, I was a huge fan of The Host, so as long as this isn't pure mimesis, hopefully it will be good). Not to mention, I am also a big fan of Alias and Lost (though mostly the earlier episodes of those series). Not to mention, the parasitic marketing is intriguing and fairly well done.
