Quarantine (2008)
Calcutta Tube Review:
A Fire Department gets an urgent message from an apartment in Los Angeles. They rush to the spot with all their fire fighters with a reporter and cameraman who were making videos on them. The tenents in the apartment were sufering from an unknown desease which later was discovered as rabies. The city seals the whole building with everybody inside and does not let a soul out for any excuses. The infected victims act like horrible canines and hurts anybody that comes close to them. Everybody got killed except for the reporter and the cameraman who, discovers an attic when trying to make an escape. They find an traces of unsafe experimentation with rodents, an pale, infected man, resembling a skeleton in appearances. The unknown inmate of this horrifying apartment breaks their camera, attacks the cameraman and kills him. The reporter watches this to her horror, and then even more terryfying she is dragged to the dark, screaming.
This is a movie that I wish I had never watched. The camera was very disturbing, and everything was shot from the view of the reporter making a film on the fire department. So, the moviepitifully lacks picture stability. The horror scenes are full of flesh and blood, and lacks imagination and even more, sophistication. The movie was really a low budget one, the sets were were small and gloomy.
It never felt like a real movie.
