Yup, in Quarantine, she's just unbearable and over the top, while in Rec, I found the way she panicks more realistic.

Yeah, I thought the girl in [REC] was great. Sure, she's panicking relentlessly, but her situation certainly warrants that. She did a great job making it seem very natural and indeed "real".

I haven't seen Rec but I really enjoyed Quarantine a lot and I thought Jennifer Carpenter's acting was fine. She was just as good in "The Exorcism of Emily Rose" as well. Another movie that I enjoyed. I like how this movie is mostly shot in the darkness and then has it "pop out" scenes. The "zombies" are really creepy as well. It is a must see!

I pretty much agree with BH14.

Haven't seen [REC] due to the fact that I don't like watching movies with sub-titles, but I did watch Quarantine for the first time a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it.

I don't understand the hate for Carpenter's performance. In my opinion she brilliantly captured the reaction of a terrified young and immature girl in an unimaginably horrific situation.

I really liked this movie a lot and thought it was one of the best horror films of the year. I still have yet to see [Rec] but I really want to, especially since a sequel is coming out for it now.

You are definately missing out. In my opinion, the best horror flicks are coming from Europe nowadays. Setting aside all of them, because subtitles annoy you is just ignorant.

[REC] is really good and Quarantine is a fine remake. If you haven't seen either, I recommend you first watch Quarantine... you will enjoy it without prejudice and then you can still take enjoyment in the superior Spanish version.

you're missing out on an entire world of awesome cinema by not watching films with subtitles.
