    Pretty suspenseful but not really that good.

    A frame to frame American version of [REC], Still pretty good but if you seen [REC] then you know what's coming and when, Only a few extra scenes added in but the Spanish original version is much more scarier, But if you haven't seen the original then maybe you will find it more enjoyable.

    The remake failed to be realistic, but I acknowledged the intention of making it look like the original film with the addition of Jay Hernandez.
