"It's out of control."
It is, of course, very Blair Witch, but better in every way, and a great viewing experience. From the early shocks to the frantic final half-hour, [REC] takes its straightforward premise and wrings from it every drop of suspense and jump value that it can from its taut running time. The attempt at authenticity works well, apart from a couple of glaring Idiot Plot moments, and the characters come across as mostly genuine and unforced. With some genuine shock moments, [REC] is efficient, relentless, and very enjoyable indeed.
