Okay, let me start off by saying right off from the start, I never did like the Blair Witch Project. I hated the jerky camera movements which inspired in me a feeling of sea sickness. I hated not seeing all the story, you know, when they weren't filming. I hated that movie! Well, I guess I should not have watched Quarantine which would not have existed without Blair Witch or Cloverfield, and all the other POV movies.
Quarantine starts off kind of slow. A television reporter and her cameraman are filming the nightshift at a Los Angeles Fire Station. The movie begins with the reporter, played by Jennifer Carpenter, following the firemen around the station during a quiet night. At one point, someone makes a comment about the possibility of seeing some action. This is a horror movie, so you can guess, they will see something - hopefully, sooner rather than later. Did I mention this movie starts off slow?
Finally, a call comes in. The firemen respond to some kind of medical emergency at an appartment complex. There is screaming coming from an upstairs appartment. A manager lets the fireman into the appartment, which leads to the mayhem being unleashed. People get bitten, the building is then quarantined from the outside world. Screaming, running - shaky camera work warning, people dying, the end.
Let me save you some money, if you have seen the trailer, you have seen the last scene of this movie. That's why I hate movie trailers, some of them give away the ending of the movies they advertise. Don't both renting or buying this movie; I did not enjoy it. However, if for some reason you want to buy it, here is the link to buy it from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Quarantine-Jennifer-Carpenter/dp/B001MVYUR0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1255312703&sr=8-1
