MTV is the origin point for the trailer.

Good stuff, right? The kids look pretty believable, and while the budget obviously isn’t high, the depiction of the developing powers works for me. And while I look at most found footage films and feel as if I can predict exactly how they’re going to go down, there is an element of uncertainty here.

Chronicle is directed by Josh Trank and written by Max Landis, who seems to have projects all over town lately. It stars Dane DeHaan, Michael B. Jordan, Alex Russell and Michael Kelly.
