Am I the only person who enjoyed this? *SPOILERS*


I loved it, from start till end, it's fresh, it tries to bring something new, the cinematography is great, the shots, great makeup, the bride is hot, even when she becomes infected, great and simple ending, eternal love.
I didn't care much about the story, cause the story was left behind, or maybe I just didn't get it...anyway, why people hate this movie so much?

I know! Why the hate? This is a tiny little gem of a film. The premise is believable, the plotting is very well done, and the characters are well developed. Oh, and it's a zombie film.

Don't hate this movie because you wanted it to be something else. Enjoy this movie on its merits, or move on. I though the chemistry between the bride and her husband was great, they stayed away from a *beep* Hollywood ending, plus Sponge John was hilarious.

The fact that this was clearly a low budget film (all the action takes place at the reception hall, for obvious reasons) detracts nothing at all from enjoying this film. I gave it a 7.

I found Rec 3 to be much more enjoyable than I thought it would be. Some reviewers were just way too harsh on this film. I too found it VERY refreshing when the camera got destroyed and the movie suddenly switched into third person. I'm amazed more "found-footage" series don't do the same.

I'm with you lads. And this poster...

I liked it alot. I like how REC brings demon possession to the table. Zombies are all well and good but demonic possession on top of it is like chocolate topping on vanilla icecream, makes it so much better :D

I hated it. I am not a horror movie fan whatsoever though so that factored in to my dislike for the movie.

I enjoyed it. Not in the way I enjoyed real rec of course, but it has its strong sides and presents a quality trashy horror without falling into vulgar profanity (like tarantino and co with their latest wave of pretentious *beep*
amazing powerful and very erotic scene with chainsaw bride is memorable and praiseworthy.

Many was disappointed in this movie but for me i truly appreciate the story, but prior to the Rec series i guess many would really tell it was a bad movie. But REC 3 alone is a good romantic horror comedy film i guess?it made us laugh, thrill and scared. Sorry but everyone but we love this movie arent we guys? :D

SAME HERE! Clara was awesome! Loved the bit where Koldo smashed the camera kinda felt like he was saying enough is enough just because the first 2 movies were filmed handheld and were awesome doesn't mean this one has to! Then boom REC3 in normal film state and feeling like something very new. The Paranormal series went overboard by the second! doing the whole what reason could there be to have this handheld... oh the sisters otherhalf likes HD cams apparently... then the 3rd oh we found some old video tapes that have really messed up stuff on... hmmmmm. Hopefully we'll see Clara again for [REC]4 Apocalypse

I like all three movies, but this one felt more light-hearted than the previous two. I liked that, but I guess other fans didn't really expect it? Who knows. It wasn't spectacular and it wasn't very original, but it was quite enjoyable.

I kind 'a liked it... I guess... but this shouldn't be named 'REC 3', it shouldn't be named 'REC' at all! It has nothing to do with it's predecessors (except for the demons of course). Instead, I would've called it 'Left 4 Dead - The Horror Comedy-show'

Enjoyed? Sort of...
Recommended? Nahhh...
