Trivia:
The Colombian woman from
[Rec] wears a different colored T-shirt. In the first film, it was a beige type color but it was switched to a white one for the sequel as they wanted to drench it in blood which didn't show up as well on a colored T-shirt.
Goofs:
Revealing mistakes:
The teenagers video camera imprints the battery level indicator on the recording. Video cameras do not record the battery level with the video, they just display it through the viewfinder for the person operating the camera to see.
User Review
They did it again!
Rating: 10/10
First of all someone wrote : "Worst movie ever?" I'm wondering if he
really watched this movie. Anyway REC2 really did it for me,I was so
looking forward to seeing this sequel and after reading some IMDb
reviews I was thinking...boy I hope this wont be major let down.
And it wasn't! From the first minute to the last it was a thrill ride.I
saw some excellent camera work, some really impressive effects and some
top acting.
After i watched the first one,i was asking myself :"How did it start?
What really happened?" Well in REC2 you get all the answers.
Once again BRAVO Jaume Balagueró&Paco Plaza BRAVO Spain
