dir. Paco Plaza, 2012
I say without hesitation that the first two REC films are two of the scariest and most well-crafted horror films I’ve ever seen, making this third installment all the more painful to watch, with Plaza passing on the opportunity to build the mythos and instead turning this threequel into a parody of the two films that came before it, resulting in a funny (the-director-knows-how-clever-he’s-being) zombie-thriller that could have stood on its own just fine but, when unnecessarily attached to this franchise, instead points a finger and laughs at the two (much better) pics it shares a trilogy with.
