Well I have not see ONE good Hollywood remake of a foreign horror film, and the only half way decent one I have seen is The Ring. So I would go with [REC] all the way, I am seeing Quarantine only for the laughs.

REC i found for 41 bucks on ebay with 14hrs left. I just dont know it it can play on my PS3. If i does it will be a big step for me i have not watched a DVD since Blu Ray

oh I see what you are saying, I was just replying to REC vs Quarantine!


But idk if it will play, I saw it on ebay before as well and someone told me it wouldnt play because it was region two. So I guess I will never have REC, but usually we release the originals of the remakes when the remake comes out so in a week or two we will see!

It will not play on a US PS3. It will not play PAL format and it won't play anything other than region 1 DVD.

Yep, i have the spanish BD of REC and the video format is 1080i50. Afaik the region A PS3's have problems with that format.

Not sure if it's region locked though, some say it is, some say it's not. Several other european countries will release it later this year (like the UK or France). And i also expect it to get an US release once Quarantine is released.

[REC] freaked my shit all the way out.


Quarantine looks not scary one bit

[tacoreed]

I agree. The only Hollywood remakes I've seen that I've liked were, Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, and Halloween, although they still aren't as good as the originals. I haven't seen Quarantine or [Rec], but I'd bet $1,000,000 that [Rec] is way better.

My Personal opinion.
I've been tracking this film since the beginning and I've seen every clip, set visit, etc possible.

This is the studio's first R remake and the people involved really went all out.

Plus the original was fantastic and last we heard, the remake remains the same.

First review

"Actress Jennifer Carpenter of Exorcism of Emily Rose fame surely deserves some kind of award for giving the most hysterical over-the-top performance in a horror movie since Marilyn Burns in the original 1974 Texas Chain Saw Massacre."
