The only reason I bring it ...I watched Quarantine. The only reason I bring it up here is that the words "zombie" and "gore" and "freaky little girl" will bring more hits than "Kirk Cameron." And yes, fellow zombie-philes, if you thought the girl in "Night of the Living Dead" would be a lousy choice to bring on a picnic, or to trowel your garden, this little stinker is even worse. (How it that for attracting hits?) The movie was just pretty good, but was a near shot for shot remake of a Spanish movie named "REC" that apparently is fantastic. How you copy something and make it worse is beyond me.<br /><br />SPOILER ALERT <br /><br /><br /><br />READY?<br /><br />In all the commercials and trailers, there is a shot of a woman being dragged away into the dark. That turns out to be the final shot of the movie. To make it worse, you are able to figure that out from literally the first shot of the movie. Why are there so many stupid people making decisions?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />SPOILERS OFF<br /><br />TBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2638382943535174775.post-57407897699162499962009-04-13T11:44:00.000-03:002009-04-13T11:44:00.000-03:00I enjoyed the movie greatly. The part of the DVD ...I enjoyed the movie greatly. The part of the DVD that stuck with me the most was the outtakes, but not for the same reason as you.<BR/><BR/>Over the years I have become a Bonus Features junkie. Alternate endings, blooper reals, behind the scenes, whatever. I have become accustomed to the sounds of beeping. I was a little shocked and annoyed when watching a recent dvd that did not bother with beeping. It disturbs me to think that might be a new trend. I'd hate to have to start worrying about that.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, there were no bad words in the Fireproof outtakes. No beeping either. This may seem obvious for people who watched knowing what the movie was about and who made it. It was a refreshing change for me, certainly. but most of all it spoke to the sincerity of the cast and crew in what they were teaching.RebelAngelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06378809557123102752noreply@blogger.com
