What should REC look like?

I think REC horror movies are a form of horror movies that fit the zombie theme. Of course, they are also good for catastrophe movies, like Cloverfield. But in terms of the horror effect, the depressive feeling in the enclosed space that Quarantine gives people will increase the effect of the film exponentially.
As one of the most important elements of horror films, enclosed spaces are also the most difficult to express. If you want to make the enclosed space more realistic and immersive, then the camera can't go in, okay, what movie will you make? Then just like Quarantine, let the cameraman have a reasonable reason to enter, then can't get out, and finally use REC to solve the problem. I think Quarantine is the film that best combines film form and film content among REC movies.
The film has a Western and European horror, and the bloody shots are handled very realistically and are very realistic (in fact, I don't know what it is actually, but it just feels very real). The plot arrangement is also relatively reasonable, with certain twists and turns. But the photographer has not been harmed except for the end. I think it would be better if the photographer can be killed halfway and then change to shoot, because this can break the audience’s preconceived thinking that REC film photographers must die last. .
