After a routine 911 call takes them to a small apartment building, they find police officers already on the scene in response to blood curdling screams coming from one of the apartment units. They soon learn that a woman living in the building has been infected by something unknown. After a few of the residents are viciously attacked, they try to escape with the news crew in tow, only to find that the CDC has quarantined the building. Phones, internet, televisions and cell phone access have been cut-off, and officials are not relaying information to those locked inside. When the quarantine is finally lifted, the only evidence of what took place is the news crew's videotape.

It's a remake from the spanish movie

For those that don't know, Quarantine is a remake of the original Spanish 2007 movie REC ( as in the RECORD button). I just saw the original about 2 weeks ago and I have to say it has to be one of the best Horror movies in the last decade. Last 15 minutes of the original will make your skin crawl.

By the way, the movie was released in November of last year and we have a remake already. I guess the early buzz of the original had investors buying the rights to make an American version. I also heard that the producers of Quarantine have blocked the distribution of the original in the states till after the release of the remake.

If you can get a hold of the original, watch it before this version...you will not regret it.
