Summary: Jumped out of my skin
Comment: Dont be put off by the fact that this film is in spanish - i didnt even realise when i decided to
watch it. The subs go fairly slow so its easy to keep up. It can also make it scarier at points
because your so focused on reading the subtitles that when something jumps up you really didnt know
it was coming.
This film has gore and suspence and will scare you no matter what your horror
type.
It has the clastrophobic element, the gore and the "that could really happen element"
possessed by other great films like 28 days/weeks later and doomsday.

Summary: It just gets Scarier and Scarier...
Comment: You start by watching, through the camera, a camera man and a woman reporter, making some kind of
documentary about fire fighters. They follow the firefighters who are going to help a woman in an
apartment. It just seems like an ordinary, unedited film when suddenly, I won't spoil it, but things
get messy. The use of the handheld camera is brilliant, even if we have seen it in "Blair witch"
and, more recently, "Cloverfield", it really keeps the tension and you find yourself biting your
nails and sitting forward, possibly even looking away, because you can't really see what's going on
and then it suddenly jumps out, making you jump or maybe even scream! The ending was so scary! It
was disgusting, but you don't really see any gore, it was really just stuff that sends the chills
down your spine. So it was a little slow to start, but you start to work out what has happened, but
(although some say it's boring) the actionless scenes add to the realism. And when the scary parts
do come, they are fast, furious and ,if not that, painfully tense. I still can't get over that
ending, that thing walking around in the dark, screeching, sniffing, half naked; It'll be playing
over and over in my mind when i try to get to sleep. Ignore it not being in English, the subtitles
are worth the effort of reading, because you end up with a horrifying, realistic journey that with
scare you, make you jump- It's everything you could want in tense, terrifying horror.

Summary: Biggest disappointment
Comment: Having read lots of reviews & watching the trailer this was one horror film I was really looking
forward to. Its watchable but I wouldn't bother watching it again. Lots of holes in the story line,
the infected characters weren't scarey enough & the whole film was predictable including the end.
The best part of the film is the final 5 minutes however that was nothing original. My biggest gripe
is the lack of originality. Seen it all before in other movies which have done it better. Borrow
someones copy before buying your own. I'm glad I did & have now cancelled the copy I had on order.

Summary: Boring but brilliant?
Comment: REC in general is a good horror movie with parts that make you jump and some tense moments and I
really like the POV camera movements, however for me it just takes too long before the real action
starts and the plot moves forward. The one to one interviews, although perhaps used to allow the
audience to get to know the characters better dragged on more than it should. All this said REC is
deserving in the 4 stars i give it and no one should be put off by the language barrier and should
definitely give it a chance.
