Review of REC

REC (2007)
7/10
Good horror
7 September 2013
This is a somewhat innovative Spanish horror film. A TV reporter and her cameraman doing a report on firefighters follow a call to an apartment building where something is wrong. People are turning into zombies, and the authorities seal them in.

The camera style is Blair Witch inspired. For this, it works quite well. It adds energy to the movie. However I did find it somewhat tiresome after a while. As with all these hand-held camera style, there's always the illogicality of how the camera is always catching the action just right. The other problem I had was how the building was sealed so quickly. Overall, those are minor details. This horror film had some pretty good shots. It's able to maintain the pace, and get to a climatic ending.
