Im a bit late to the party, but i somehow missed this one. You asked in the intro about found footage thats not horror. Both "Searching" and "Missing" are two movies that i recommend if you ever want to check out something thats not horror.

George it's not doing things at other locations you're having trouble comprehending, it's the idea of enjoying doing absolutely nothing that doesn't compute.

If you guys have watched all Final Destination movies, it is only fair if you watch the whole REC series! (Imho a bit better than FD, especially the wedding one.)

Watching Simone get scared is what I'm here for. This is a well made horror film. Rec 2 is just as good. I hope you guys watch it.

Even though the American remake being a shot for shot copy it somehow isnt as scary. the spanish sequel also deserves a watch

You mean "watch," not "waste," right?

Really? I saw both ages ago but didn't remember much about Rec other than the basic premise. I think I stamped Quarantine as an "acceptable remake". Rewatching this, I thought the actors were fantastic, does Quarantine really top this in your opinion? Might have to give that a rewatch then.

Excellent movie, with the subtitles seeming to disappear a short way in, as if your brain reads it without diverting your attention from what is going on. And listening to Simone shout "Oh fuck! Oh fuck! Oh fuck!" is a weird but enjoyable experience. She somehow looks so pure, as if sugar wouldn't melt, and yet... And this is the 57th movie Ive watched with you guys where she declares, "This is my worst fear" That's a whole heap of worst fears.

Controversial opinion, Quarantine is one of the few remakes that I think is a little better than the original, purely based on the strength of the lead actress and the removal of the religious subtext of the story.

Check out Quarantine. It's one of the few times an American remake is done correctly

When we want to say Trivia in spanish, we just say trivia

You guys have to watch REC 2. It immediately picks up right where this one ends. Itβs a sequel continuation of the story. RECS 3 and 4β¦meh. But 2 is just as good, if not better, in exploring the narrative lore further. As far as found footage films that have a survivor (which technically is a spoiler but Iβll keep it vague because survivors can be a loose term): As Above, So Below The Poughkeepsie Tapes Chronicle End of Watch Troll Hunter The Last Exorcism Zero Day Some of these are horror and some of these are non-horror but are genre films like fantasy and such. Edit: changed waste to watched.

Watch Prisoners please

A couple of the sequels are pretty solid as well. And the American remake (Quarantine) is actually pretty good too.
