So I saw [rec] last night. It was really really good. The start wasn't too slow or too foreboding, and it had a fantastic medium between the "keep throwing things at the audience" method of scaring and the Blair Witch "is something going to happen EVER?" method. You think something's going to happen, then it doesn't. Then when you've resigned yourself to nothing happening, all hell breaks loose. It's the best horror movie I've seen since The Descent, but it's scarier than that movie was.

Is this in English yet? Or french even? German? Something I understand cause I'm dying to see it especially after your explaination. Oooh subtitles?

It had subtitles.
And WARNING!!!! DO NOT watch the trailers for the movie Quarantine before you watch [rec]. Quarantine is a [rec] remake, almost shot-for-shot, and it gives away the ending.

i found it on alluc.org. Go to movies>genre>horror and search through them. it wont come up if you search. Unfortunately you need firefox to view it and my computer illiterate family insists on using only IE.

I saw [REC] a few months ago, as Sam says, it is the best horror movie since The Decent. Its in spanish, so its subtitles, and sometimes the subs go by too fast because the actors speak so fast. if you can get around these facts then go for it, if not your losing out.

It's also short, it's only 75 minutes. And the prologue isn't brief, so once the mayhem starts it is tightly compacted into the remainder of the film.

I saw it last night too and it was simply AWESOME!!:) Undoubtedly one of the best horror flicks of this decade. Very highly recommended.

Its a really fuckin' good flick but I dug Diary Of The Dead a lot more for the handicam/found footage deal it dug a lot deeper and questioned its motivations and had some classic Romero satire (pretty over this style now after watching those two and Cloverfield recently).
Christ they didn't waste much time putting out a remake did they?

I just saw it, what a great movie!!! They have some references to my country, Portugal (no wonder, Spain is right next door) and I'm glad to see we're still seen as the root of all evil :D Kidding...
Go watch this movie, NOW!

The link that MissMacabre posted was a dead-end...it just leads to another link, then you have to sign up for another site...but [REC] isn't even actually there.

there's nothing more effective than a horro movie that starts out very light and non threatening ... and just when you start to forget it was a horror - all hell breaks loose.
i have to admit i'm really digging the 1st person camera films - especially when they've all been done so well lately

So I went to see The Strangers last night and there was a preview for [rec]'s American remake Quarantine (DAMN YOU! I WANTED TO AVOID ITS PREVIEWS!)...
I honestly home that its remake boosts [rec] popularity so it'll be available on Netflix.
ChronoGrl
07-20-2008, 05:20 AM
Ok.
I am TIRED of not having seen this movie. With the American remake coming out I really NEED to see this film first.
I've checked on Amazon.com and Ebay with no results. Initial Google Search for "[rec] DVD" comes up with either Spanish DVD sites or reviewer sites announcing its release in Spain in May...
Do you guys know of another site where I could buy the DVD? (I specify "buy" because, based on the feedback for it already, I do not want to watch it online and figure it's worth picking up). Any other DVD sites that you guys use to buy foreign release films?

Saw this two weeks ago at the Fantasia festival, awesome movie, they actually had to screen it thrice because of the insane response it got fro the public.
It actually was voted second best movie on the "world" side (there are prices for Asian movies and World movies), behind Sweden's "Let the Right One In" which is nothing short of stellar, altough very different from Rec...

Best horror of 2008.

Sorry to say but right now the only way to see it with subtitles is to download it from a site like Piratebay or Demonoid.
You would then have to download VLC media player, as this is one of if not thee only program that lets you watch downloaded movies that are in different formats without major problems.
If for some reason the version you download does not have subtitles you can just google "subtitles" and see if any of those sites have the subtitles that you can then add to the movie.
I have seen versions of REC on Ebay but I would wait until the official release is out, because I have yet to see any with subtitles and I can't see spending good money on what is essentially a bootleg copy no better than anything you can download.
Awesome movie by the way. I loved it.

Btw I just saw this and it blew me away! I loved the ending! To find this movie in google search bar type "ovguide" or just type in your browser www.ovguide.com
Ovguide has it's own video search. I find a lot of movies on there. In the ovguide video search type rec. and it should give you a list of sites that have the movie. You just click on the link and play the movie. Some sites will have 4 or 5 parts of the movie, and also you must be careful of the websites you visit. If you go to one and Zango pops up, DO NOT INSTALL!!!! It will crash your computer, so be careful!

Yes, it is out. It's on UK site Play.com for £9.99 (about $20US) for a two-disc version and £6.99 for the single.
I checked Play USA but it's not there, which is strange.
Play.com will be region 2 DVDs, though.
I'm sure you'll find it one day, one day...
... one day...

The official USA release of "REC" will be when the american version of the movie(called "Quarantine"-same movie but in english and takes place in a Los Angeles apartment building) is released I believe in October.
