DVD Talk Legend
Looks pretty interesting. It's directed by Jaume Balaguero, the guy who directed Fragile and Darkness.

Although they haven't been very well-recived (or, in the case of The Nameless, well-treated on DVD) in the US, I've enjoyed all of Balaguero's films so far. Didn't know he was working on something else, so this is a nice surprise. Looking forward to it!

BTW, welcome to the forum.

I really enjoyed this movie.
It played out a little slower than I was expecting but it turned out being a great experience, very predictable but well told and directed. Similar to Cloverfield (which Rec does pre-date), but with

Not surprised a remake is on the way, but that shouldn't deter folks from seeking this one out.

Though I won't be surprised if the remake comes out, does well, and gets released on DVD simultaneously with the original.

They showed a clip of Quarantine on Attack of the Show a few days ago. They did mention that it would be a scene for scene remake of [REC]. Quarantine is scheduled for a Halloween 08 release.

Whatever you do, don't watch the trailer for Quarantine, it ruins the [Rec] experience
This was a really good movie...far better than I was expecting. Probably the best movie in its sub-genre I have ever seen
