First of all I'd just like to say that horror flics are the funniest genre because in these so called "serious" situations, the characters seem to always do the complete opposite of what they should do. Then again if they all did what they should do, horror flics would be 25-30 minutes long.
I had the pleasure of viewing the latest in the horror genre...Quarantine. This movie is shot documentary style like Clover Field. Its about a news crew following a fire department for a night hoping they find some action. They end up getting a call about a disturbed woman in an apartment building. The woman ends up attacking the men zombie style. Unlike other "zombie" flics, Quarantine tries to use a more realistic explanation for zombie-like behavior...so the best they could come up with is...rabies...yea rabies. So the apartment gets Quarantined. You would think this was a pretty good setup for a decent horror flic...but...na. Though the movie was mildly entertaining, the stupid behavior made you so mad that cant even enjoy the movie. You were constantly askin yourself and the person next to u..."WTF?"...and it proceeds to disappoint you to the end of the movie. At least they were consistent.
I have an idea for the sequel...This movie gets Quarantined in a apartment building and no one can get to it...THE END. The world is a better place.
