Quarantine
Synopsis
Television reporter Angela Vidal (Jennifer Carpenter) and her cameraman (Steve Harris) are assigned to spend the night shift with a Los Angeles Fire Station. After a routine 911 call takes them to a small apartment building, they find police officers already on the scene in response to blood curdling screams coming from one of the apartment units. They soon learn that a woman living in the building has been infected by something unknown. After a few of the residents are viciously attacked, they try to escape with the news crew in tow, only to find that the CDC has quarantined the building. Phones, internet, televisions and cell phone access have been cut-off, and officials are not relaying information to those locked inside. When the quarantine is finally lifted, the only evidence of what took place is the news crew’s videotape.
Dove Review
Blood, infections, and people shoved over railings. Very jumpy camera shots during some of the frightening moments. This film will not go down into history as a classic, and it won’t go next to our Dove “Family-Approved” films which have received our Seal.
There is a lot of blood and violence in the film, with some strong sexual innuendos and remarks. The frightening images of dogs attacking people would be a bit much for some viewers as well. Do yourself a favor and go see “Beverly Hills Chihuahua” or “City of Ember”, as both films received our Dove “Family-Approved” Seal, and are both currently showing in your local theater. At least the camera doesn’t shake a lot.
