Just finished watching. Cant add much more to what's already been said in this thread. As a stand alone film, it was an impressive thriller. But the tie in to Cloverfield was ridiculous.
This is exactly what I was thinking. They could've just condensed this into a portion of a true Cloverfield sequel and I woulda been good.
Outside of the last 15 minutes, there was no reason to name it Cloverfield other than an attempt to sell tickets. John Goodman acted his big ass off and it's a shame he's not gonna get any recognition for it. Goodman was on his Kathy Bates in "Misery" shit which had a very similar plot. James Caan gets rescued from a car crash only to be held in captivity and abused.

The movie ends with something out of the farmhouse scene in Spielberg’s War of the Worlds, with Michelle escaping from Howard and getting outside of the shelter, only to find that aliens have invaded and are hunting people.
