Is "[REC]" really that scary?

By Lai Swee Wei

Will "[REC]" get the same cinema caution treatment as "Quarantine"?

14 Jan – Novelty zombie horror "[REC]", the Spanish original that spawned "Quarantine", makes a late release at cinemas nationwide this week, with the same shaky camerawork as "The Blair Witch Project"(1999) and "Cloverfield" (2008). "[REC]", derived from the abbreviation for the word 'recording' on a video camera, is based almost entirely on the first person perspective telling the story of a young TV reporter and her cameraman who cover the night shift at a local fire station. Upon receiving a call from an old lady trapped in her house, they reach her building to hear horrifying screams and thus begins the uniquely dramatic TV report.

The film scored many awards in various film festivals around the Europe and a sequel entitled "[REC] 2" is reported to be currently filming. For now, a special preview for Cinema Online's readers was held on 12 January 2009 at Cathay Cineleisure Damansara, 9.30 pm.

After the show, we asked some of the audience "Whether they thought the movie was scary and how many stars would they rate it out of five".

Selina Ong: It was very scary and very gruesome! What I didn't really like was that some parts of the film was blur due to the camerawork. But since the movie is quite interesting, I'd rate give it 3.5 stars!

Waridi B. Hamdan: It was a little bit scary but the thing about the movie which I didn't enjoy was the camera movement. It made me feel so dizzy. I would give "[REC]" 3 stars.

Ng Hoong Yi: The movie wasn't that scary. I'd say that it tries to be scary, but it doesn't really deliver for me. I'd give this movie 2.5 stars.

Zainab: Yes, it was very scary for me although I'm not the type of person that gets frightened easily. I would rate the movie 3 stars.

"[REC]" will play in cinemas beginning 15 January 2009.
