Critic Reviews
Quarantine director John Erick Dowdle and co-writing brother Drew wisely stick close to the told-from-the-cameraman's point-of-view template of the terrific original, though they add a few fine flourishes.Full Review
Claustrophobic, jittery at times, and electric in pace, Quarantine is a stripped-down bloody thrill ride that -- while certainly not catering to everyone's tastes -- should satisfy gore-hounds looking to step up their theatrical horror cuisine beyond the usual creepy little kid rehashes.Full Review
The template is familiar, but Quarantine delivers the heebie-jeebies with solid acting and perfectly calibrated shocks.Full Review
Dowdle manages a few nice shocks and some neat moments of pitch-black gallows humor, but Quarantine nevertheless feels awfully familiar, and it grows less convincing with each passing moment. At its worst, it abandons realism entirely and flirts with gory kitsch.Full Review
A modestly inventive, sporadically exciting thriller that nonetheless proves too faithful to its central conceit for its own good.Full Review
