Quarantine isnt original, but at least it offers a relatively novel synthesis of ubiquitous trends.

Here comes the inevitable fast tracked Hollywood remake, which covers the same ground without the burden of all those subtitled hysterics.

That rawness has been lost in translation: the film stock is too crisp, the gore too cinematic, the performances never quite real enough.
