Directed and co-written by John Erick Dowdle, Quarantine is a remake of Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza's 2007 Spanish horror-thriller Rec, winner of two Goyas (best editing, David Gallart; best new actress, Manuela Velasco). Now set in 2008 Los Angeles, Quarantine depicts the battle for survival inside an apartment building that has been quarantined by the Center for Disease Control after the authorities learn of a virus that has turned some of the building's residents into rabid killers.
You know it's a science-fiction flick when government authorities actually act promptly to handle an urgent health issue. Even then, "promptly" doesn't mean "intelligently" or "effectively." Jennifer Carpenter plays a healthy TV reporter trapped inside the rabies-infested building, along with other healthy but unlucky residents, cops, firemen, and the like.
Co-written by the director's brother, Drew Dowdle. Also in the Quarantine cast: Jay Hernandez, Columbus Short, Greg Germann, Steve Harris, Dania Ramirez, Rade Sherbedgia, Jonathon Schaech.
Quarantine opens in the US on October 10.
