    rec 3 was the best out of the series, where the first two were all about realism, this just wants to be entertaining, scary, blood-soaked, body-strewn gorefest, it succeeds on a monumental level, there is an adequate development of the two main characters, this is set on their wedding day after all... but it is genuinely creepy, and when she pulls the chainsaw out and stands there like 'BRING IT, MOTHERF***ERS!!!' that is the most badass moment i've seen all year...… Expand

    Es un poco truño de peli, pero para una precuela esta bien :) deberian de mejorar muchas cosas, pero bueno menos mal que con la 4 pelicula de esta saga se acaba y va a ser similar a la primera :D

    [REC] 3 Genesis is a prequel to the first two "[REC]" movies, but that doesn't much matter. You don't need to have seen them to enjoy this film, which provides fresh blood for a tired genre.

    With slapstick smothering the scares, [REC 3] is further marred by a plot in which the muted Catholicism of its antecedents is turned up to full blast.

    It's the same-old flesh-chewing. Like vampires, this genre is getting deadly.
