Warner Bros. has unveiled a brand-new image from The End of Oak Street, giving horror and sci-fi fans their best look yet at one of the film’s terrifying dinosaurs roaming an otherwise ordinary suburban neighborhood.
The End of Oak Street came out of nowhere with a teaser trailer that left us with more questions than answers, which is exactly what sci-fi horror auteur J.J. Abrams and his Bad Robot Productions are known for.
Looking like some strange hybrid of Jurassic Park, Cloverfield, and The Twilight Zone, with a hint of Spielberg, we learned that the film begins after a mysterious cosmic event rips Oak Street out of suburbia and transports its neighborhood to an unknown place. The Platt family – Anne Hathaway, Ewan McGregor, Maisy Stella, and Christian Convery – soon discover that their very survival depends on them sticking together as they navigate their now unrecognizable surroundings.
The newly released image puts one of the film’s dinosaurs front and center, teasing the terrifying collision between prehistoric predators and everyday suburban life that sits at the heart of the movie.
That unique contrast is exactly what excited Abrams. “I think people are hungry for new stories, original stories, and to me, the undeniable appeal of this is the fact that it takes place in suburbia,” Abrams tells Empire. “I love the Jurassic movies as much as anyone, but those films, for the most part, take place in these beautiful jungles, these distant islands. David’s whole approach here was the juxtaposition of the absolute mundane suburban family life — swing sets and ice-cream trucks, and above-ground pools and school buses — and dinosaurs. If there’s any part of you that is excited by what you saw in the trailers, I can promise that the movie will deliver on everything.”
Not only does it boast a killer cast, but it was directed by It Follows filmmaker .
