This week, Adam and Zands are locked in with Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza's 2007, found-footage/zombie horror thriller, REC. In this film, a television crew and a group of firefighters are pulled into a terrifying fight for survival after a distress call at a Barcelona apartment building turns out to be more than they bargained for. Trapped inside with a killer virus, mutating residents and the military waiting outside to eliminate anyone who tries to leave, they must navigate the tensions in the building and growing network of zombies to have a hope of survival. Adam and Zands discuss the film's themes of repression, religion, distrust, xenophobia and the systemic destruction of women's bodies.
CW for child (un)death and gruesomeness.
