REC revolves around a television reporter, Ángela, and her cameraman, Pablo, who cover the night shift in one of Barcelona's local fire stations. The firehouse receives a call from an old lady trapped in her house. When they arrive, and the firemen and the police break down the door, the old lady suddenly attacks and bites one of the policemen, and it is revealed that an unknown but virulent disease is infecting people, causing them to turn into zombies. The police and the military quarantine the building and the camera crew is trapped inside, constantly recording the mayhem that ensues.

Holly shit, that has to be the scariest most tense horror movie I have EVER seen.

I don't remember watching a movie which had me so stressed and watching-through-the-fingers-the-next-scene like this one. And especially at the end.

This isn't actually a zombie movie - it is sort of,

Spoiler:
but the origins of everyone turning violent is due to other factor - (can be seen in the movie at the end) and it is not chemical/biological infection

Excellent movie. Don't be put off by the subtitles.

And please see it BEFORE the American version comes out, as Spanish version is almost guaranteed to be better - for one, there is not 'explanation' before, after and during the movie, as it appears to happen in an American version.

Looks interesting. I'll have to look for more information about this flick.

I got it but havent gotten around to watch it yet. I usually dont like spanish(even though im fluent in spanish) movies but this one seems pretty good.

Spanish movies have excelled these past few years. Its just one great movie after another.

Pan's Labyrinth was an awesome movie!

The American version will be called "Quarantine".

I saw a trailer. Even though they have copied the movie, I have a problem with the potential 'explanation' of what happens where and why.

I feel that should be best left to the audience, like the Spanish version.

Equaly, I don't think that Spanish version is available to you guys in the US. I could be wrong though.

I'm sure that it would be available. When, however, is another question.

I really want to watch this.

If you guys cant find it in stores, then ur best bet would be to download it. Theres plenty of sites that have it,

Finally saw it. Good stuff! Lets see how Hollywood butchers this movie.

😆 Yeah, I noticed. I was tempted to mention which part is the ending on a Youtube trailer I saw. The spanish gurl has a better rack though.

Is the ending they show on the trailer when she

Spoiler:
gets pulled away from the camera by that girl in the penthouse
, i can't remember from the trailer for the remake.

I don't think they showed what was actually

Spoiler:
in that room
in the trailer.

I'd love to see how the remake ending looks compared to the original, I thought the end scenes in the original were amazing.

Does anyone know how they did up

Spoiler:
the girl in the penthouse, was she a very very thin actress they got and did the make up or was there some CGI help?

Cheers for anyone else who has seen it.

can someone send me an "invitation code" forI cant register without one?! Gayyy

I need to buy the dvd. I hear that it's a good watch.

I am scared to watch the remake. I don't know how bad it was butchered.

Same here. I loved [.rec] and I hate that the American remake is even coming out.

I think

Spoiler:
the girl would have been CGI. Her jaw was also unusually huge

I think that the ending was extremly powerful

Spoiler:
It only gives you perhaps 5 minutes or so in exlaining where this whole mess came from. The girl from Portugal being possesed and the likes. Her looking through the papers and the pictures happens very very fast.

It is unclear and it leaves you to make your own decision about it.

I fear re-make will ruin this particular aspect. I watched the trailer and there is a voice over telling you something took place somewhere already ruined it for me.

It already lost the 'real' feel that the original had.

Heard some much of this film during my visit to SDCC. I haven't had the chance to search for it. I heard that is practically Cloverfield crossed with 28 days later. If I find a copy on dvd I have to get it.

Is there a US release for the dvd?
