Then you'll probably like QUARANTINE !
Television reporter Angela Vidal (Jennifer Carpenter) and her cameraman (Steve Harris) are assigned to spend the night shift with a Los Angeles Fire Station. After a routine 911 call takes them to a small apartment building, they find police officers already on the scene in response to blood curdling screams coming from one of the apartment units. They soon learn that a woman living in the building has been infected by something unknown. After a few of the residents are viciously attacked, they try to escape with the news crew in tow, only to find that the CDC has quarantined the building. Phones, Internet, televisions and cell phone access have been cut-off, and officials are not relaying information to those locked inside. When the quarantine is finally lifted, the only evidence of what took place is the news crew's videotape. Written by zjohnson

A movie where people are turned into flesh eating zombie creatures? I've seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that, and seen that.... Etc.
Did I mention I've seen that? |

Doesn´t harm to see again
Anyway I liked cloverfield except the beginning...too boring...
The end owned though.
That´s how a real movie should end.
Not like all those other movies where humans wins no matter how strong their opponent is.
So pathetic and unreal... |

Last word is that QUARANTINE is not having any Advanced Screenings for the Critics which means its gonna be a massive turkey....
So I'll probably buy a Pirate Copy from the Chinese Dude that comes by the Tire Change Place in Port Elizabeth for $5 !  |

I saw it on Saturday with my best friend and her boyfriend...
It wasn't as good as Cloverfield, but the camera effect was strikingly similar and it did project an image of situational reality for the audience; almost as if you were the one being quarantined in the complex. It was gory and yes, it involved zombies. There's relatively little explanation as to how the affliction came to be (although in the movie it is a labeled as a form of rabies, lol) but I'll leave that up to those who haven't seen it to determine that.
Overall, it was a good thrill; it did have scary moments.
3.5/5 |

Have they made an official announcement for it? I heard that in an interview, it was said that if they do a sequal it will actually be the exact same attack, but from the prospective of someone else in the city... |
