The best way to describe Quarantine is by the movies it was inspired of. Think of this movie as I am Legend meet Cloverfield meet Blair Witch Project. The movie follows a TV reporter named Angela Vidal as the camera crew tags along a fire crew as they are called into action. They get to a four-storey building and find an elderly woman who is frothing from her mouth and viciously starts attacking people.

The residents soon discover that Center for Disease Control has locked them in and put the entire building under quarantine. As the remaining survivors scramble to stay alive, the camera crew keeps rolling as this is the “recording” of how the events unfolded. Unfortunately what they record is very one-note and not worth saving. The movie’s premise of super rabies causing humans to violently attack each other is very reminiscent of zombies. A lot of the concepts in this movie have been done to death before, and the movie doesn’t add anything.

Worse still, they used the ending scene as the poster for the movie, spoiling the entire experience. If you have motion sickness, don’t watch this movie as there’s a lot of shaky camerawork and dark corridors.
