The highly anticipated sequel to one of the scariest films of all time, [REC] 2 picks up 15 minutes from where we left off, taking us back into the quarantined apartment building where a terrifying virus has run rampant, turning the occupants into mindlessly violent, raging beasts. A heavily armed SWAT team and a mysterious government official are sent in to assess and attempt to neutralize the situation. What they find inside lies beyond the scope of medical science—a demonic nightmare of biblical proportions more terrifying than they could have possibly imagined. Above all it must be contained, before it escapes to wreak havoc on the unsuspecting world outside.

Critics Consensus: It lacks the surprising jolt of the first installment, but [REC] 2 almost maintains the original's chilling momentum -- and proves not all horror sequels were made equal.

Reviews

Deep Focus Review

Brian Eggert

Through all the twists and turns of plot and camera perspective, [Rec] 2 is simply too much excess to enjoy.

[Rec] 2 picks the best elements from the hectic original and puts together an even better film.

An explosion of information removes much of the raw terror from the premise.

There are fewer frightening moments [than the original], but the ones that do come are all the more frightening from the build-up of tension.

The Stranger (Seattle, WA)

Lindy West

REC 2 is adequately claustrophobic and frightening and freaky, but the formula wears thin after a while-especially once they defang the first movie's mystery by explaining it. But if you're a sucker for utter panic, it'll do.
