What a piece of junk


REC SYNOPSIS

angela "When the alarm goes off they have to go!" oh look other women. oh look where they sleep. if the alarm goes off they have to go (again she says this). a basketball game. ohh the alarm went off.. riding in the firetruck, oops i called a siren an alarm, he he ha ha har har. The firefighters n police are here to help us residents after someone was screaming bloody murder.. lets be as aggressive and not listen to the cops as much as we can. I have to filM!!!!!!! dude gets bit.. I HAVE TO FILM!!!!! get him downstairs.. oh no we are quarantined.. I have to film and show what is happening!!! lets ignore the cops and go film upstairs and see what is happening. women gets shot. I Have to film!!!!!! everyone dies. inbetween angela says about a million times "what is happening pablo????!!!!!"

i AM ONLY left to wonder.. can angela after years of reporting, only communicate through questions?? namely screaming absurd illogical questions repeatedly?? that is the true premise of this film i believe. That ultimately people like angela through her screaming gets everyone killed, but also deserves to die a terrible death.

sidenote: besides the cop and fireman who uses a hammer/mallet 2 times in the entire film, is the entire apartment building a weapon free/ blunt object free zone?? did the landlord go and have all objects over a foot long and weight over 4 lbs removed from the entire building??

angelas is probably the most annoying character i have ever encountered in any movie i have ever seen. which is saying alot. she literally ruined the entire movie

I would give this film a 2 or 3, it was brutally bad, the only redeeming quality was how creepy that girl in the end was, but even then Pablo had to keep the camera on angela instead of the threat (completely logical) and attempt to sneak by

I came to this board to find out what was wrong with this movie that everyone loved except for me. Thank you for writing my review. The only thing I would add is, "these things are dangerous, we know because we have one in the hallway behind this glass door. So let's stand in front of it and argue. OH MY GOD HE SMASHED THROUGH AND GRABBED THAT GUY"
