Movie and Tv show

[REC] - REC is a Spanish horror/thriller which came our in 2006. it quiet unknown in this country not that many people know about this movie, but this movie has been rated high and was given one of the most scariest movies of the year. the story line is that a infection breaks out in a flat, and it is blocked up by the government outside so no one can escape, so this infection breaks out which makes the dead eat or bite the living which makes the human to turn into a zombie. so all the people are trying to escape. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ib5ZSj6ST0U

quarantine- this is basically the American of REC. it uses all the same style and the same story line all this does is add extra parts into the movie. i may do this because it more recent and because its bigger it would contain more information and would be easier to research. both are about zombie/infections. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=D4inLY7YmNI

Dead set- this is a E4 show which came a few weeks ago, it was made epically for Halloween. it was a mini series which only had 5 episodes, 1 being a hour the rest 30 minutes. it was set in the bog brother house and in the big brother area and also had previous contestants also had celebrities. it about surviving the zombie infection that house broken lose in the world, and the only place they can stay is the big brother house while looking away to get out and escaping before getting bitten and turning into one of them. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=HQjq639WPiU

the link between this TV show and the movie(s) is that they are both horror thriller. this is what they use to set the atmosphere in the movie. the other link is that both of these are zombie/infection movies. technically REC is not a zombie movie because the people that come back are not eating the living, they are just biting. but in dead set the zombies need the humans to eat but they are both infection movies.

the way that they advertised REC/ quarantine is that basically had the same advertising. they had two main trailer for both movies. one of them was trailer which was in the movie, so theymade a extra scene with two firefighter coming into the building with someone screaming which never happens in the move. the second one they did which is the main one is that they had a person recording the movie from like video camera which is a unique style and it draws in the audience this trailer showed little clips of what was happening in the movie. also in the website for REC they had a what do do next thing, so you can chose what you want to do and they show you a bit of whats going to happen.
