We're ridiculously excited about Chronicle at Total Film Towers. We think it's got cult sleeper-hit written all over it.

The real-kids-get-super-powers high-concept might not be particularly original ( Misfits , anyone?) but we're not sure we care when it's delivered this well.

We were just starting to get a bit sick of portentous super-hero flicks filled with sombre teens struggling with the responsibilities of super-powers.

So it's refreshing to see a gang of kids doing what we'd do if we ever gained the ability to fly or control stuff with our minds - pricking about and having fun.

This new clip is the latest evidence that's exactly what the main thread of Chronicle will involve - a bunch of mates messing about with their powers, before things take a turn for the disturbing.
