    Just back from the cinema, went to see quarantine. Scariest movie I've ever seen, I hate horrors, so I avoid the worst ones, but my friends invited me today and I had no idea about the movie. It's filmed like Cloverfield, but I was genuinely frightened the whole movie. I'm sure there is much scarier movies out there, I just plan on not seeing them.

    Just back from seeing it myself.
    It was scary but that's not what got to me. I can't explain it. I was just unnerved throughout.
    Scariest bit for me though was definitely:
    When the cameraman went up into the attic to see what was there and the face just flew at you

    That bit scared the crap outta me...

    The entire movie is unnerving, I was uncomfortable watching it, the shakey cam atmosphere was class. It's based on REC, a Catalan horror movie, the only difference is in REC at the end they actually explain the final penthouse scene.

    Not sure if this will give anything away so spoiler tagging my whole post: :D
    Yeah I would have liked an explanation alright, but I think it's kinda good the way we didn't get one, makes it creepier. The bit where Scott is bashing your one's head in with the camera had everyone in the cinema in stitches, lightened the tone, before f***ing you up again.
    Few things I didnt get though was:

    How come the little girl changed so fast when it took everyone else a while? I know she had it longer, but she didnt do any of the frothing at the mouth or spazzing the others did. Just went from completely normal to zombie-state.

    Why did the first auld bird throw the fireman over the rail? They were more interested in eating them than random murder. Unless he went over in a struggle.

    When Angela was looking through the old guys apartment for the keys ya think Scott would have helped Jake kill off the dude attacking him instead of trying to help her find keys?!

    Did the press not see the Indian guy when he opened the window?

    Why oh Why didn't they keep the white cops gun when he was injured?

    Are the infected able to come back from the dead considering the cop shot the old lady three times and then she popped back up only to get sledgehammered.

    The black cop knew what was wrong with the girl. He knew she was gonna try bite him. Yet he holds his hand out to her, puts his face in close then turns to the camera to talk, baring his neck to her? Seriously, just pop a cap in her knee or something and inject her!!

    Some small things, maybe I'm being a bit pedantic, but overall I really enjoyed it.

    Just looked up the summary of that movie. Glad they left it unexplained in Quarantine now. Bit farfetched. :D

    Lol. I got away with it longer than expected!

    I'm not sure about the kid, maybe the virus manifests itself differently in children?

    The fireman was bitten by the old lady, and in the struggle he fell off the balcony.

    Also there was so many windows on the building that the press crew probably didnt notice.

    They definitely should have tried to get that guys M4 assault rifle too, they didnt utilise their firearms well enough!

    The black cop had a vaccine or something to give to her, so he was probably hoping to inject her before getting owned.


    I can honestly say if I was in that position these are the two option I would take;

    1. Let the snipers around the building shoot and kill me.

    2. Get the cops gun and kill myself.

    No lie.

    Yeah those are two very nice options. I would have tried throwing myself out a window right in front of the press so they'd know the military were lieing.

    The M4 would have been nice but he was in the room with Fletcher and the cop and the vet and the other Hazmat guy so that was kind of unattainable.

    Yeah he was trying to help her, I wouldn't have taken my eyes of her for a second though. Or at least knocked her out before trying to inject her.

    Remember when Scott killedthe infected girl with his camera and then he was cleaning it with his shirt and you see a reflection of something moving along over his shoulder. Was that the lad in the attic in the vent? Thats the only thing I can think of...
