waste time

Movies are movies, not in the form of pseudo-documentaries. Even if you're making fake documentaries, you have to pretend to be a little bit more like it. Many times I deliberately express some things in order to indicate that I am a "documentary", for example, the camera is turned off, the shaking caused by the unstable lens, the sound is loud and quiet, etc. As a result, because of the excessive performance, it makes people feel very uncomfortable. Hard and contrived. It is impossible to get rid of the characteristics of popular horror films: the perspective of the characters basically does not look left and right up and down, and always only looks at the front. Because the camera was shaking all the time, I was very dizzy and couldn't stand it. People with motion sickness and seasickness didn't need to watch it, they would vomit.
From the perspective of Chinese people, this film should not be a horror film but a disgusting film (too many bloody scenes)

REC quotes

  • Ángela: [to Pablo, before interviewing a fireman] If this is a pain in the ass, just cut, okay?

  • Álex: People think we run around, putting out fires but around 70% of the calls we get are for other types of services.

    Ángela: Like what?

    Álex: For example, broken water mains, or pet rescue too. Even though it sounds cliché, it's true.
