I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

A sequel to a horror movie as good as REC is a tall order. I myself went in with very low expectations. REC is simply one of the greatest zombie and found footage films of all time. But I was pleasantly surprised by this sequel. Like HALLOWEEN 2 or BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN, this picks up the instant the original left off. Sometimes this tactic doesn't work, like in QUANTUM OF SOLACE, but here it drops you right into the action in familiar environs and the tension never lets up. In short, if you liked the original, then you'll like REC 2.

For this second installment of the REC series, we follow a four-man SWAT team that have been called in to handle the events inside the ill-fated apartment building from the first movie. Along with a doctor from Spain's version of the CDC, they have to try and get a blood sample from the person who started the whole episode so they can work on an antidote. However, things don't go as planned and the SWAT team find themselves fighting for their own lives.REC 2 is actually, thankfully, better than Quarantine 2 and I think mainly that's because REC 2 at least follows up and actually works alongside the first. Quarantine 2 doesn't have anything to do with it's predecessor - it's just a crappy stand-alone sequel. REC 2 isn't as good as REC but it's not too far off it. This one is actually darker and a bit more disturbing & violent than the first, so be prepared for a more intense movie.The sound effects for the infected people (like the first film) - especially for a young girl - very much add to the visuals which creeps you out more. Also, the way everything is shot from helmet cams attached to each member of the SWAT team works nicely. It's like looking through the eyes of that person, and that brings about it's own unnerving atmosphere as it's like you are right there with that team member. This creates a good few uneasy, creepy moments...especially when a camera goes to night-vision.As mentioned above, REC 2 actually takes place during and after the events of the first film, and it combines pretty well, so if you were to watch REC and then go straight onto REC 2 it is pretty much like watching one almost 3-hour long movie.REC 2 is a pretty enjoyable movie, and while it has more of a zombie feel to it rather than supernatural, it's still definitely worth watching, unlike Quarantine 2.

"Rec 2" is the second movie of the Rec trilogy and the story continues where the first one finished but in this one we watch a group of SWAT to enter this building with a medical officer to control the situation and to see what happened to the sealed off apartment.I liked this second movie because of the storyline and how that continues and I believe that Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza for one more time did a great job. I also liked the interpretations of Jonathan D. Mellor who played as Dr. Owen, and Manuela Velasco who played as Ángela Vidal as in the first one. Alejandro Casaseca who played as Manu made an also good interpretation.Finally I have to tell you that "Rec 2" is a little bit lower than the first one but it is an also nice movie.

I loved the first Rec movie. It was like a movie sent from hell directly to my address to scare the living crap out of me which it did and i loved it so i could not wait for the sequel. The sequel picks up where the first movie ended, thats great. The movie goes on just as the first, but thats great. The movies ending is not like the first which showed up to be CRAP!! They ruined the whole "hoping for a trilogy" dream. But its worth being seen:) The acting is still pretty good and the thing about the Spanish language is that they talk so fast so it gives the movie a stres factor, pluss since you got running infected people chasing you, and they are fast f...... to so with the language it just makes your head stres but in a positive way. Its still scary and it leaves a shivering scar in the soul. Great work from the Spanish-horror-armada;)
