If I was they i will drop the camera and run. The story is about a reporter and her assistant are sent to a Los Angeles fire-station to research their ways. On an emergency 911 call they here a mysterious scream. What they later find out is that her scream was caused by a mysterious disease. As they try to escape, they realize that authorities have quarantined the area. When they uncover the mess, all that is left is the documentary tape. The original version (Rec) was way better then the remake. The characters are not realist and the found footage thing is getting old.

It was a good movie but I could predict everything that was going to happen. There were some logical issues but I'm not going to critique that too much because movies can't be 100% logical. It was pretty scary though. The zombies were scary, cudos to the makeup artists! I have yet to see Rec so I can't compare the two movies. This movie was good though. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to be scared on a Friday night.

I am surprised that this didn't do better at the box office. The creepiness of it for me was in the realism of he situation. Very cool and very interesting.

Not quite as high concept and well-made as the film it is based upon, Rec. Still, the setting and subject matter generate enough scares to be entertaining and frightening, simultaneously.

The premise is good however, the ending was seriously lacking goodness. I was pleased with the movie throughout but, I wished they had came up with a better ending. Still is a must see if you're looking to be scared!

A little slow and corny to start with, "Quarantine" kicks into high gear after the setup. Heretofore, I have not been bothered by the "reality" cinematography of movies like "The Blair Witch Project" or "Cloverfield". However, perhaps because this one is more claustrophobic, I truly felt nauseous afterwards. But that's what makes "Quarantine" unique, so I don't fault it. I also liked how it offered the tone of a flat-out horror film, but nary a hint of anything supernatural. I mean, what's scarier than something that could really happen? Skin Rating = .5 (out of 5). None, really. But Jay Hernandez suffered from a consistent mental undressing! Those arms!

scariest movie i've ever seen by far. I don't get scared at all when i watch a scary movie, but i was shaking when i walked out of the theater. It felt just like i was there.
