[REC] 2 takes us back to the Barcelona apartment building 15 minutes after the end of [REC]. A SWAT team are sent in with a medical officer to control the situation however we soon learn that it is not a biological virus that infects people but a demonic presence that lives within the Medieros girl.
[REC] 2 keeps the action coming but manages to lose the scares by deploying the same scares used in the original film, but by any means still a worthwhile watch.… Expand

Honestly, I thought it was just as good as the first one. The "kids" alternate story was somewhat pointless, but it was a good movie overall, so it deserves an 8/10.

A great Zombie movie, much better than the first thanks to it's better effects, more developed characters (still not the most developed, but I actually cared about their fates this time), and better use of the "found footage" style of movie.A great Zombie movie, much better than the first thanks to it's better effects, more developed characters (still not the most developed, but I actually cared about their fates this time), and better use of the "found footage" style of movie. Unlike most Zombie movies nowadays it's tense, unpredictable, and creepy. It's also one of the few Zombie movies that tells what's causing it, and while the explanation is a little hokey it successfully brings new life into Zombie movies by infusing them with exorcism movies. [Rec] was good but [Rec] 2 is better. It's all much better done this time around and I'm dying (pun intended) to see where the series goes from here.… Expand

As a fan of found footage movies, I think Rec 1, 2 and 3 all are quite good and mix things up so that each one is better than the last, but only if you watch the previous ones first.… Expand

I don't exactly know what it is with Spain and horror but I do know that somehow they're just simply amazing in setting up a great atmosphere and are actually able to scare you so now and then. I loved the first [Rec], I really did. But thereI don't exactly know what it is with Spain and horror but I do know that somehow they're just simply amazing in setting up a great atmosphere and are actually able to scare you so now and then. I loved the first [Rec], I really did. But there were just two things about it which irritated me a little. The main character, reporter Angela Vidal and the pace, which was quite slow for a short movie. Still I think it is one of the best zombie movies ever made. [Rec]2, by the way, I find ever better. You'll be on the edge of your seat the whole movie. Besides some religious babbling so now and than the movie keeps going in a great tempo. Great scares. Amazing make-up. Solid and realistic acting and even a small twist. This movie takes just a little longer than 80 minutes but it's packed with everything you want from a, to me classic, zombie movie. It's not entirely necessary to check out part one first, but I DO recommend it. Just watch 'em both in one view (forget about part 3[genesis] tough) Spain is a Roman Catholic country so there will be some religious issues involved. I'm not a religious person but it didn't really bother me in this movie so it's not a reason to wine about that because it simply won't harm the movie. [REC]2 is one of my favorite horror movies of all time. If you like horror movies then this is a gem. If you like zombie movies in particular this movie is diamond.… Expand

It's not as scary or shocking as its predecessor, [REC], but [REC]2 is just as enjoyable and intense as the original and proves that sequels can be just as good as the first one.

We see the events as cameraman Pablo does. The long shots down hallways as zombies come screaming towards him is truly frightening. The action is frenetic. The building is claustrophobic. There is chaos everywhere. The government will shoot anyone who tries to escape. The lack of a soundtrack works to the show's advantage. We dont get "teed up" for the scares. It's just an all out brutal fight to survive. The last two movies shouldnt really be a part of this franchise IMHO. They add nothing to the mythology of the series.… Expand

  In conclusion, it's worth watching this movies (1 and 2, I will talk about 3 and 4 but those are not even close to the quality of these 2 movies).… Expand

Το [Rec]2 παρά τις αδυναμίες του είναι πολύ καλύτερο από τα αμέτρητα θριλεράκια που βλέπουμε κατά καιρούς από την άλλη άκρη του Ατλαντικού αλλά ταυτόχρονα είναι και αρκετά κατώτερο των προσδοκιών μας λόγω του εξαιρετικού πρώτου μέρους.Το [Rec]2 παρά τις αδυναμίες του είναι πολύ καλύτερο από τα αμέτρητα θριλεράκια που βλέπουμε κατά καιρούς από την άλλη άκρη του Ατλαντικού αλλά ταυτόχρονα είναι και αρκετά κατώτερο των προσδοκιών μας λόγω του εξαιρετικού πρώτου μέρους.
