* ''[[Cloverfield]]'' :A teaser trailer shot in a handheld camera style (like the rest of the movie) that appears to be a lighthearted party flick before an abrupt attack by a giant, completely unseen monster and ending with the iconic shot of the Statue of Liberty's head rolling in the street--and no title. All that is shown is the director (JJ Abrams) and the release date (1-18-08). The trailer kicked off one of the most secretive viral marketing campaigns in movie history.

** Bonus point for the entire trailer being shot ''before the rest of the film''. Even the party scenes were re-shot for the final version after the trailer had already aired.
