[REC] Genesis is the third instalment of the [REC] series from Spanish film makers Jaume Balagueró & Paco Plaza, and judging by the trailer we can expect more of the same gruesome action & claustrophobic scares which made the first two instalments such classics in the eyes of Horror fans everywhere.
This time, we see the action move from the closed confines of the apartment building from first two films, to the wedding of young couple Clara (Leticia Dolera) and Koldo (Diego Martin). Now I've been to quite a few weddings in my time & there's usually a fight between some of the guests but thankfully I've never seen someone become part of the buffet!
This franchise for me, reanimated a stagnant corpse of a horror genre with a mix of the Marmite (you love it or hate it) "found footage" style of film making and more traditional scares & a truly creepy atmosphere when the first film hit out screens back in 2007.
Since then we've seen Hollywood churn out remakes of both films, with one even being a scene for scene facsimile of the first. But for me, both of these failed to deliver the same impact of the originals.
If you haven't seen the previous two films, go get copies of them however you will and give them a watch, I guarantee that whether your a die hard Zombie move fan or someone who usually dismisses them as gory nonsense that you'll be soiling your undies quicker than you can say "Braaaaiinnns".
Put on a nappy & prepare to shit yourself:
[REC] Genesis releases on the 30th of this month, so put the date in your diary for what is sure to be the Wedding of the year.
