Review of [REC] (2007) by Erick F — 02 Mar 2013

Good effort. I wish I watched it in 2007 before the big boom of "FOUND FOOTAGE HORROR" genre. I feel like I would have been more impressed but unfortunately I was late. The funny thing is, this movie did everything right.

It laid the ground work for later found footage movies (including the American remake, Quarantine) but I don't think it is going to stand the test of time. At this point, other found footage movies have just taken the idea and ran with it.

Plus, the whole zombie thing is a little played out. So, bleh concept ok execution.
