Just what is JJ Abrams up to anyway? And will we know before 01-18-08?

Here is what we can tell you so far —

• Location: New York City
• Plot: Not fully known, but speculation has it that a monster is involved, scaring the bejesus out of everyone, with the story being told from the perspective of a small group of party-going survivors
• Film Style: Shot in “Blair Witch” style (grainy, hand-held camera shots)
• Stars: Michael Stahl-David (“The Black Donnellys”), Blake Lively (“The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants”) Odet Jasmin, Mike Vogel (“Poseidon”) and Lizzy Kaplan (“Tru Calling”)
• Produced by: JJ Abrams
• Directed by: Matt Reeves (“Felicity”) from a script written by JJ’s pal Drew Goddard
• Studio: Paramount will distribute

The best hope we have for this flick is Goddard. He comes with an impressive resume that includes “Lost,” “Alias,” “Angel,” and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” Stay tuned to Slice of SciFi for updates to this currently untitled film feature.
