any thoughts on it

Well, you will find out it isn't a zombie movie, but more like 28 days later. Another thing is that is almost a scene for scene americanized remake of the Spanish film REC, which IMO was a far better movie. The cause of the outbreak in REC was more along the lines of Romero's "no more room in hell", but it isn't really a zombie movie either. Overall though Quarantine was an ok movie.

Quarantine 2 was a straight to DVD movie with good reason. IMO it was just another one of those sequels whose sole purpose was to make money off of the title of the first movie. REC2 on the other hand was a very good movie on par with REC.

Daz. Get your hands on Rec first if you can before you watch Quarantine mate. I think Rec was loved by everyone here. A truly superb movie if you can handle subtitles

scene for scene remake of the superior Spanish flick .REC, i would recommend that way more.

I was gonna say the same thing, but it looks like I'm not the only one who thinks it- REC should be watched first...i liked it better.

Jennifer Carpenter annoys the shit out of me. I can't stand looking at her face or listening to her voice. She ruined the movie for me. My friend's company did the FX so that is the only reason I saw it.
