Reviews
RottenTomatoes Score: 67% Fresh
MetaCritic Score: 52/100
IMDB Rating: 5.7/10
My Response: This movie is a remake of a Spanish horror film that is somewhat respected. Quarantine uses the same hand-held camera technique that was so effective in Cloverfield and The Blair Witch Project, but we don't know how well it will work out here. Director Dowdle has already made some lower end horror films, so I don't have too much hope for this one. Expect to see some a lot of camera shaking and expect to hear a lot of screams (mainly coming from the screen, not the audience). I'd skip this one.
