My apologies, I've been MIA. I was on vacation last week, & now I'm trying to get over being sick! So, no Madhouse Monday review yesterday. But, I'll make it up next Monday with something RIDICULOUSLY awesome!
Until then, enjoy last week's review! This is a sequel to Quarantine--duh but also a remake to 2007 REC. Quarantine 2 was released August 2nd, 2011, so it's very new indeed! The director is John Pogue. It was a different director from the first one, which is kinda obvious! I don't usually dig remakes, but I REALLY enjoyed the first Quarantine and when I found out about there being a part 2, of course I was super excited. Key word there is WAS. It wasn't bad....it had it's moment for those who've seen the original REC 1 + 2 and Quarantine!
Hey, way to multi-task while "watching" the movie. :) By the way, I like the furniture in your living room!
ReplyDeleteLol, thanks! That's what I do best! I was at resort on vacation so I couldn't take home the furniture!
ReplyDeleteThanks for watching, Justine :)
Welcome back to the blogosphere. I didn't know there was a Quarantine 2. Did it ever hit theaters?
ReplyDeleteThank you! Happy to be back!
ReplyDeleteAnd nope, it was released just earlier this month on DVD.
1. sorry to hear you've been ill
ReplyDelete2. watching movies in the daylight? Pshaw
3. wherever you live I want to live there because it seems you are close to the ocean ...
and finally, I really loved Rec/Quarantine so it is a drag to hear this sequel caused shopping
Of all the zombiesque films I have seen, that freaky ass, long haired, diaper wearing, lurchy sentinel like zombie through night vision action at the end of the REC is probably my fav zomb of all time
Welcome back, my Queen. Hope your feeling a whole lot better. This internet thing is a whole lot less beautiful without you :) x
ReplyDeleteOh,and BLACK SWAN DVD? Mucho respecto, m'lady. If I ever hit the states, (if they let me in, i was a bad boy when i was younger), you and I are gonne share a pitcher and talk film :)
I'm pretty sure your review was probably more entertaining than the actual movie! It was great! I loved the [REC] movies, but I wasn't a big fan of Quarantine (even though it wasn't anywhere as near as bad as a lot of remakes are). I think I'll give the sequel a miss. ;) I can't wait for [REC 3] though!
ReplyDeleteAn award for you: http://www.drbloodsvideovault.com/2011/08/another-blog-award.html
ReplyDeleteSlightly different, less supernatural, ending on "Quarantine" to "Rec" of course which makes "Quarantine 2" a whole other story. I haven't watched this sequel myself yet though.
@Keith Lol, I know it was day time but I was alone. :| And I was on vacation in Myrtle Beach, SC, the resort I stayed in was sooo purty! And 10 mins from the beach. LOL! OMG, it did look like he was wear diaper!
ReplyDelete@Kyle Aww, thank you! ^_^ And of course! Come to America!
@Theri I can't wait REC 3 as well, definitely looking forward to it too!
@Dr Blood Thank yooou! ^_^ You can give it a watch, just to check it out.
