I missed this thread before... I have gotta get my hands on this movie!

 

[Gothgar]

Wow, one of the best zombies movies I ever saw, very scary and intense, I felt like I was there.

Glad to see people liked it. Everyone should see this film rather than the hollywood remake.

What kind of horror is it?

Psychological (SAW I, Cube)
Cheap (Every slasher flick out there)
Slow and methodical (More asian horrors)

it's low budget, but quality. it starts very slowly, then escalates constantly to the end. the gore is not out of control. having enjoyed rec, i have no need to see the bigger-budget hollywood version, quarantine (which, i'm told, sucked)

What horror style is it? I'm bored of horror movies that just go for cheap thrills

I think its because i know enough that i can try to translate it, but it takes me so long to do so that i miss what the hell is going on.

You need to work on your barrier with english first.

Passed

pass (pas) Pronunciation Key
v. passed, pass·ing, pass·es

v. intr.

To move on or ahead; proceed.


Past
past /pæst, p?st/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[past, pahst] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
?adjective 1. gone by or elapsed in time: It was a bad time, but it's all past now.


My english is alright as far as i know. You need to work on being a better grammar nazi.

you are 100% wrong

Truth, Quarantine was AWFUL, even SUPER AWFUL compared to [REC].

You're wrong. It should be "past".

You mean, "Pabst"?

Quarantine is an American film.

[REC] is a foreign film.

Yes they are that is why I disliked Dawn of the Dead 2004 so much and prefer Land of the Dead.

Same here at least this doesn't have all the shaking as much. Not like Blair Witch and it is quite different because it requires it because it fits into the storyline. Though if they could of used a tripod at times that would of been awesome.

This is more of a news camera not just a normal camera.

Without spoiling too much,it is a classic Zombie film in an up-to date setting that although gory in parts aims more for the realism of its characters than on the more usual Hollywood special effects and settings that most try to emulate (but fail miserably at usually,especially when have a budget anywhere near the one obviously used in this film).

Do not get me wrong,low budget or not its excellently acted by its participants, not one seemed fake or out of place in their environment,and the script did not at any time seem contrived or out of place for the circumstances. The viewer can easily identify both with the characters and their re-actions to whats going on around them.

I have nothing bad to say of this film considering the restraints of the budget which may have been improved by better lighting etc, and i highly recommend any scare fans to watch this,as although there are only a few set pieces those that are in it are ideally filmed and timed,bit like when the head came out of the sunken boat in jaws-you know its going to happen if seen it before (or just listen to the music heh),but even so it still makes you jump due to its perfect timing-and the set pieces in this film have the same effect. (And there are plenty of gore effects between the big scares to keep you interested too)

All in all a well made and terrifying film set in a situation that,if happened to you,you could easily see your own potential reactions portrayed by one or more of the characters-which just makes it all the more realistic and scary.

Looks like Soundmanred has been proven wrong.

Now onto [REC] 2!

How's that job at Google going?
You lied about that? Really?
How about proving us wrong on THAT, then we'll talk.

Anyway, I'm not sure what your post is supposed to be saying.
They are making a second one, so the first was good? Did you know there are no less than 5 "Bring It On" movies? Kinda defeats that point.
I didn't write the stuff in my above post (9 months ago) anyway, it was from some random review.

Isnt this like the same movie as [REC
