Hadn't they add comedy in the genre specification of this film I would have ripped this one to shreds which I'm still gonna do 😈, it's nice to see that they actually aren't misleading their audience, unlike a certain film industry (🖕HOLLYWOOD🖕) that has a prolonged history of deceiving its audience......fucking dicks.😒
Rec 3 has almost nothing to do with the previous two movies it's just your basic zombie film with some good humor weaved into it, this would have been ok if it was just a stand alone movie but it's not, the previous two movies did wonders raising the bar of the franchise to a whole another level and defined the found footage genre in a way, the…
What better way to see in Valentine's Day than with this fun and bloody tale of love and demonic possession?
What's that? Richard Linklater Before what?
I can't hear you over the sound of this chainsaw.
To say that I was disappointed with [REC]³ Genesis would be a severe understatement. Because this is without a shadow of a doubt one of the worst films I've ever seen. It's a turd in the storytelling department, lacks everything a horror film needs to implement in order to be effective & to see [REC] in its title is actually as heartbreaking as it is infuriating.
Back in 2007, [REC] unleashed such an all-out terror on its unwary audience that it is still hailed as one of the scariest films ever made. A couple of years later, its sequel [REC]² surfaced which exhibited a certain loss in quality but still worked to quite an extent. And then comes this load of…
What the fuck was that......I like the first twenty minutes but everything after is just fucking awful in every single way.......the characters are bland, writing is stupid & oh my fucking god the plot was so bizarre it’s like a side quest in a video game.
Also the fact is took 21 minutes for the title sequence to happen 🤣
2/10
If I ranked it with the franchise in mind I'd give it a minus 100 star rating! I truly wish it had remained true to the tone and atmosphere of its predecessors! If it were at all possible I'd bend the director over my knee and spank him silly!
With that being said I can't believe I actually liked this flick! Normally I can't stomach sappy love stories! But gall darn it there is something about a bride in a bloody wedding dress carrying a chainsaw that touches my jaded heart!
Newlyweds watch their lavish reception descend into infectious chaos when a guest with a sore hand suddenly suffers the full effects of COVID-19,000,000.
REC says "let's do a fun one!" at the cost of the core action horror tenets of the first two. While I can appreciate trying mix things up, the comedic shift and mostly traditional shooting style of Genesis makes it feel so foreign to the established visceral, fly-on-the-wall tone. It's as if they had a rough screenplay lying around dealing with chivalric romance and fleshed it out using the franchise's universe of raving flesheaters.
The gory bits aren't anything fresh and while it's great to see a heroine emerge wielding a chainsaw from an initial stereotype, more…
Que un valenciano sea el origen del apocalipsis es un dato que jamás podremos agradecer lo suficiente a esta película.
Had this been a stand alone zombie film I guess it would be ok, certainly better than most. It has some humour, fantastic gore and doesn't outstay its welcome.
The thing is, this isn't a standalone film. This is part of a series of films that has created its own mythology and presented it in a serious and dark tone. And they were at points scary as hell.
This film does none of that. It starts out great, but quickly moves towards forced comedy and predictable plotting. Which is a shame as it is all well made, but completely out of tune with the rest of the films.
HORRORx52: 28/52
27. Made In Spain
Startlingly different than the first two installments, this one takes us out of the apartment building and into a spacious, elegant wedding venue. I guess I'm just a romantic softie, or perhaps just easily entertained, because this actually worked for me and I quite liked the ending.
A strange choice indeed to abandon the found footage aspect partway through, it being the key concept of the franchise and all... but it was smartly done and its continuation simply wouldn't work with this plot.
Stranger still was the bride's decision to whack off just one half of her wedding gown via chainsaw: (1) there's gotta be an easier way, and (2) the other half is still in your way, dumb-dumb. I did enjoy when she finally turns on the infected ("This is my day!") and the actress really pulled off that 'I'm kicking ass and I'm just as surprised about it as you are' look.
Well, I really enjoyed this one. It's quite different to the first two movies as it's way more lighthearted and based around a wedding day, so the themes of love and family are more prevalent here. There are some pretty funny moments too... I often wondered about those massive knives / swords at weddings to cut the cake. Well this time the cake sword came in pretty handy.
However.
The sight of a beautiful young Spanish lady in a ripped wedding dress, wielding a chainsaw on impending zombies. Yeah, that sh!t's for me all day long. That scene is about 20 minutes long and made the movie for me.
Some great scenes, lovely camerawork and a pretty cool soundtrack. Often franchises completely lose their way by part 3, but this one is definitely worth the entrance fee.
I’m a big proponent of the first two REC films, so I thought I’d give 3 and 4 another go. Half found footage/half normal cinematography, an ok setup, decent gore, and the added presence of humor (which kinda worked for me). The bride with a Chainsaw pretty awesome.
I still prefer this to Quarantine.
In many ways [REC] Genesis is a brave third instalment in the Spanish zombie franchise. Not only is it a parallel sequel focusing on new characters but it eschews the unique selling point of the series by abandoning the first person camcorder hook twenty minutes into the film. However, although bravery is commendable it simply can’t make up for the failings of the film in key areas. With director, Jaume Balagueró, off making his own films it is up to the co-director of the first two [REC] films, Paco Plaza, to take the reins alone. Maybe it would be too easy to say Balagueró is the director with all the talent but on the evidence of this film, Plaza seems…
"This is the end"
There's some borderline Dead Alive gore spread around and a guy running through the mayhem in a knock off SpongeBob SquarePants costume by the name of John Sponge.
With a third installment under the belt it takes the cinematic route and ditches the handheld cameras once the opener has rolled out. A lot of [REC]³ Genesis is like a SyFy channel movie that you don't care to watch but nothing else is on so you sit through the melodramatics of its wedding catastrophe involving two lovers trying to find each other inside a hell hole of infected rage machines.
I'm not sure how intentional the comedic value of watching two people run around in medieval armor…
This seems to have been one of those films that incurs the wrath of fans as it moves away from being an exact replica of the first two films in a series and changes the tone a bit. This one tells a parallel story about the Demons disrupting the wedding reception of Koldo and Clara and doesn't try to replicate the claustrophobia of those frightening movies. One of those at the wedding has been bitten by a dog and starts the bloody ball rolling by biting some of those in attendance. The "possession" quickly spreads and soon those who were not infected are on the run around the house and grounds of the country estate. There is actually quite a…

No és ni mig normal el que he disfrutat veient aquesta història d’amor apocalíptica.
La trama és extremadament divertidíssima; en quin moment se l’hi ha acut a algú fer una pel•lícula on l’apocalipsis zombie arribi en una boda on tothom està mig afectat per l’alcohol?
El ritme no s’afluixa ni un moment, amb escenes realment divertides i amb bones dosis de gore. Els escenaris són fantàstics (el menjador on s’ha fet el banquet tot destartalat i destrossat, amb aquella llum tènue, és impressionant; i els passadissos subterranis són molt potents). La banda sonora tampoc es queda pas a segon pla: un apocalipsis a ritme de clàssics de boda és meravellós.
Beneïda Leticia Dolera, amb una potència salvatge i un paperàs tremendíssim.
Molt fan d’una de les històries d’amor més perfectes i disfrutables d’aquests darrers anys.
Filme #5
Muito decepcionado, tava animado com o final do segundo filme e eles abandonarem o found footage e mudar o tom foi no mínimo ruim
Ya sabía yo que de la primera solo iba para abajo.
No me estaba disgustando nada. El cambio de localización parecía que le daba vida a esta película. Ya no estábamos repitiendo escenario ni tampoco formas, porque en vez de grabar todo en forma de falso documental, también se desprende Paco Plaza de la ficticia cámara de mano y rueda una película con sus planos habituales. Me parece atrevido teniendo en cuenta la identidad de la saga, pero creo que funciona bien.
Lo que sí que no funciona bien es el humor estúpido. Sí, hay algún gag que está guay, pero se pasa de la ralla. Es lo que más me ha sacado de la película. Me da la sensación de que esta tercera es una caricatura de las otras dos.
Algún detalle tonto de guión más y un fiat bastante feo, pero qué le vamos a hacer.
Lo único que me guardo es el chiste de San Jordi y la novia matando zombies con una motosierra
[REC.3] hat leider nichts mehr von der Klasse der schweißtreibenden Vorgänger. Das merkt man schon an dem hanebüchenen Setting der Hochzeit. Tja und wenn dann das Virus zufällig ausbricht wird das ganze ein lahmer Zombiefilm mit uninteressanten Figuren ohne jegliche Spannung oder nennenswerte Höhepunkte. Was der Film neu macht ist das er das ganze versucht mit Humor etwas aufzufrischen, das hat mich aber leider auch in keinster weise erreicht. Ganz nett ist vielleicht noch das Finale in dem eine Kettensäge zum Einsatz kommt, da weiss der Film was er ist und unterhält. Insgesamt kann man diesen nachgeschobenen Teil aber getrost weg lassen.
