REC 4: Apocalypse (2014) Hey what's up guys. Today I'll show you a
horror-thriller film: "REC, Part 4, Apocalypse"! Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care!
The movie begins with a reporter narrating the latest news on the ongoing mysterious virus,
wreaking havoc in Spain. A whole building had been quarantined to prevent the spread of the virus.
Residents, police officers, and firefighters were trapped inside. A TV reporter named Angela,
is said to be the only survivor. A special forces team arrives in the building
to rescue Angela, and destroy the whole area to contain the virus. The team includes two soldiers
named Guzman and Lucas. They plant bombs on every floor, and make their way to the top level.
The building looks empty, but blood is splattered all over the walls. Suddenly, an infected
firefighter appears in the doorway. They shoot him with bullets. An infected resident appears next;
and he bites one of the other soldiers' necks. They take care of the resident, but it's too
late for their fellow soldier. They shoot him too. Another fellow soldier was bitten, but he
has accepted his fate, and hands over the gun to Lucas and Guzman, who help end his life.
With less than two minutes left before detonation, Lucas and Guzman hear Angela's screams. They find
the survivor, who's in the middle of experiencing shock from everything she has seen that day.
Lucas assures her that she will be fine. The next thing Angela knows, she wakes
up strapped to a bed, and wearing a hospital gown. In front of her is a middle-aged doctor,
who tries to calm her down. He takes a sample of her blood for testing, and
doesn't answer when she asks where they are. Meanwhile, Guzman is somewhere nearby. He stares
at the security camera in the room, and steps out into a dimly-lit and narrow hallway. She
encounters an old woman, who asks him where the wedding is. He kindly tells her that he
has no idea what she's talking about. The doctor takes the blood sample to the
doctor-in-charge, named Ricarte. Ricarte is suspicious of Angela, and thinks that there's
a high chance she has been infected with the virus. He wants him to run her blood sample
one more time, to make sure she's clean. Angela tricks one of the staff in the infirmary
with her. She breaks free, and runs out of the room. Ricarte orders for her to be captured;
and a squadron of armed soldiers immediately fan out and chase her. She runs through the hallways,
and ends up bumping into Guzman. Guzman sees the soldiers, and instinctively
protects Angela. He urges her to run, and they both flee through a metal door.
To their surprise, they realize that they are on a ship, and they have nowhere to go.
The soldiers surround them with guns pointed. Ricarte steps forward and introduces himself.
Guzman demands to know why his superiors sent him to the ship, and he's also wondering where
his partner Lucas is. Ricarte explains that they need to run more tests on Lucas, to make sure
he's not infected. They are also isolating Guzman and Angela, to prevent the spread of the virus.
Angela agrees to cooperate; and a soldier gently takes her back to the infirmary.
Meanwhile, the ship captain takes Guzman on a tour of the vessel. He shares that the government is
paying him a ton of money to run the ship, that is housing the expert medical team,
in charge of addressing the virus outbreaks in Spain. After this mission, he will retire.
They head to the bridge room, where the messy technician named Messy-beard, is waiting. The
lights flicker, and Messy-beard remarks that the electricity supply has been intermittent,
ever since the medical team started building the laboratory on the ship.
He also adds that they took over control of the ship's radio, and disabled the lifeboats
as part of the security protocol. Messy-beard is a huge fan of Angela;
so he's excited to recover the footage from the camera, that they found with her in the apartment,
shown in the previous episode. During dinner, Lucas reunites with Guzman,
and they sit with the old woman, who still thinks she's attending a wedding. Guzman
then shares what he heard about the laboratory being built, and says that he doesn't trust
Ricarte and his medical team. Lucas warns that there are cameras everywhere watching them.
Later on, Messy-beard manages to recover the footage from Angela's camera. He shows it to
Guzman. He also shows the live security feed of the ship, that he secretly hacked into.
Apparently, the team has been loading the laboratory with several animal cages,
and the lab is heavily guarded. That night, Angela dreams that there's
something slithering inside her belly. She opens her eyes, and realizes that she was sleeping in
one of the bunks. She quietly walks out of the room, and explores the ship.
Meanwhile, the electricity flickers again. The engineer working below deck is hard at work,
trying to fix the problem despite being harangued by a couple of the soldiers.
On the bridge, the captain and Messy-beard are worried about the storm on the horizon,
that's heading straight for them. Guzman and Angela also join them. Messy-beard is overjoyed
at finally meeting his favorite reporter. He proudly shows her the recovered footage
he has. He's still working on the rest of the footage; but he already has the first couple
of hours of Angela's fateful day. Angela is very interested, and she looks closely at the screen.
Ricarte finds out that one of the test subjects they are keeping under guard, has escaped.
But the twist is that it didn't break out on its own. Someone else let the subject escape,
probably during the blackout.
The cook is busy preparing the next meal in the galley. He begins to hear a series
of strange noises. Something bumps into one of his tool racks, but he doesn't see it.
When he turns around, a rabid monkey screeches at him. It immediately jumps on his back,
and bites his chick neck. The cook slams the animal inside the pot, that's been sitting on
the burner. Eventually, the animal dies from the extreme heat, and is ready for a meal.
Upstairs, the soldiers complain about the delay in their meal. A ship officer goes
down to the galley, to check on the food. He finds the cook with his back turned. But He
does not know the cook is already undergoing the process of transforming into the infected.
The officer then grabs the cooked meals, and heads upstairs to serve them.
In the galley, Lucas comforts the old woman, who is sad because she thinks that her family
has deposited her in a senior home. She asks Lucas to find her a meal she would like.
Lucas goes to the galley, to ask the cook for something else he can feed to the old woman.
However, the cook, now a full-fledged zombie, attempts to attack his smelly ass.
He manages to lock the cook inside the freezer, making him a frozen zombie.
He immediately heads upstairs, and tells Guzman and the others not to eat the food.
Ricarte appears with several soldiers, and asks Lucas to show him where he trapped the cook.
Guzman and Ricarte go to the galley with the dead doctor in tow. Ricarte explains that the medical
team has been working on a retroviral, to heal the infected people. They have been successful
in controlling the two initial outbreaks in Spain; but the most recent strain of the virus
is resistant to previous antidotes. Ricarte pulls out a syringe, filled with a white liquid, and
he says that he will try the latest retroviral on the cook. However, the antidote does not work.
On the bridge, the officer tells the captain that he's not feeling well. His eyes are turning red,
implying that he is also infected. Messy-beard views the security camera live feed,
and discovers that all over the ship, people are being infected and turning into zombies.
This is because the food the cook prepared, was contaminated with the infected monkey's bodily
fluids. When it was eaten by the people on the ship for lunch, they became infected as well.
Lucas confesses to Guzman that when they entered the apartment building, he had a different
mission. He was tasked to extract a blood sample from one of the infected people there.
He also reveals that rich people are bankrolling the outbreaks for their own interests.
They decide to find a way out of the ship. The group all head out of the galley, and into the
hallway. But Guzman senses that something is wrong. Sure enough, a zombie comes barreling
down the hallway toward them. Luckily, Guzman successfully pierces its head, and shoots it.
The captain calls the engineer below deck, and tells him to stay put.
Moments later, a zombie attacks him. He fights back with a wrench and hits him.
Out in the hallway, a zombie attacks Lucas. Above them, the infected monkey appears again, and tries
to attack the group as well. Guzman dispatches the zombie and the monkey with his gun. However,
the group discovers that the addled old woman has wandered away from them.
Lucas is persistent that he rescues the old woman, so he lets Angela and Guzman go ahead.
Angela and Guzman arrive at the bridge, and are let in by the captain. Messy-beard accesses the
encrypted system used by the medical team, so they will know what Ricarte is hiding.
At the same time, Ricarte comes to the realization that the antidote won't work,
if they don't have a sample of the unmutated virus. He initiates a self-destruct mechanism
that would implode the whole ship, and destroy everything and everyone on it in 20 minutes.
But one of the doctors finds a solution, and stops Ricarte.
Back on the bridge, Messy-beard cracks the encryption, and shows Guzman and Angela the
folders, where all the research data are stored. They find a folder with a name familiar to Angela,
because she saw that name in newspaper clippings, in the attic of the apartment building.
She recalls that the articles were about a young girl, who was rumored to be possessed by a demon.
Inside the folder are documents detailing that priests worked together with Ricarte to diagnose
the girl's medical condition, implying that this was how the virus spread in the first place.
The doctors all watch the footage from Angela's camera. It shows her hiding in the attic, and
being found by a long-haired monster. The monster pries open her sexy mouth, and infect her with
a slithering parasite. Ricarte realizes that the parasite now inside Angela, is the source of the
virus, given to her by the demon-afflicted girl. Ricarte also realizes that since the parasite
is the original strain, if they get it out of Angela, they will be able to make an antidote now.
Ricarte cancels the self-destruct mechanism, and sets out to capture Angela instead.
Lucas finally finds the old woman wandering around the ship aimlessly. However, when he touches her,
he discovers that she is already infected. He fights her off, but is attacked by a horde of
zombies. He manages to escape into a room, and lock the door behind him. But Ricarte
and his soldiers are inside the room, and they force him to tell them where Angela is.
Ricarte proceeds to go to the bridge. Guzman and the captain draw their guns to protect Angela,
thinking Ricarte will hurt her. But Ricarte explains that they need to extract the parasite
from Angela, in order to make the antidote. Guzman relents. The soldiers grab Angela
and strap her to a table. Ricarte is about to use a scalpel to slice her stomach open, when
one of the doctors opens a door, and alerts the newly-turned zombie officer to their presence.
Chaos ensues as the soldiers terminate the zombie. Angela gets off the table,
and flees the bridge. Meanwhile, the doctor gets scratched by the zombie;
and Ricarte executes him in cold blood. Angela goes back into the hallways of the ship to
hide. She destroys all the cameras she sees on the way, so Ricarte can't track her. But eventually,
one of the guards sees her going into the dining room, and alerts Ricarte. Fortunately, Messy-beard
is also watching the cameras, and he contacts her through a walkie-talkie, so they can communicate.
He guides her to the galley, where the cook is still trapped inside the freezer.
With seconds to spare before Ricarte finds her, Angela unlocks the door and hides.
This unleashes the cook on Ricarte's guard. A doctor gets a fire extinguisher to help him fend
off the cook, while Ricarte scurries backward. Angela sees him, and yanks him inside her hiding
place. She bites him, and then taunts Ricarte to check his blood to see if he's infected now.
A deluge of zombies finishes off the rest of Ricarte's team. He couldn't care less about that,
as he is focused on checking if he's infected from Angela's bite. He takes a sample of his blood,
and runs a test on it. The blood test shows that she is not infected. This means that Angela is
currently not the one with the parasite. Meanwhile, Angela reaches a locked door that
needs a keycode. She asks Messy-beard to give it to her, but he is hesitant because he thinks
she's infected. Messy-beard had learned to get the code by watching the security camera feed,
as instructed by Guzman earlier. Angela pleads that she's not infected and she will prove that;
but he needs to give her the code. Messy-beard complies. Angela enters his lab, and tells him
that she's not the one they are looking for. Guzman and Lucas find harpoon guns that they can
use. They hope to restart the backup engine of the ship.
Back in the lab, Ricarte surmises that the parasite jumped from Angela's body,
and found another host. Guzman arrives with a gun. Ricarte claims that Angela is deceiving them all,
and is somehow hiding the parasite. In turn, Angela points the blame at Guzman. He was the
one who got close to her, when he rescued her in the apartment building. The parasite must have
jumped from her to him at that time. When they got to the ship, Guzman, now infected, released
the monkey by orchestrating the blackout. Ricarte initiates the self-destruct mechanism,
which will explode in 20 minutes. Angela tries to attack Guzman with a taser; but he overpowers her,
and traps her in the underbelly of the ship. There, she finds several cages,
where animals are being kept. She crawls her way through them, and finds a tunnel leading out.
Meanwhile, Lucas and Messy-beard encounter a zombie in the hallway. Lucas decimates him
with a drill. They then proceed to the engine room to fix the backup engine.
However, the now-infected engineer arrives and attacks Lucas. Messy-beard gets scared,
and fails to help Lucas as he gets eaten. At that moment, the lights turn off. Messy-beard
flees the room with his scary beards. It is now 13 minutes before detonation;
and Angela is being chased by infected monkeys. She finds a ladder and climbs it.
Ricarte grabs the lifeboat he had hidden, when they confiscated them from the ship.
He stumbles into Messy-beard, and offers him and his messy beard a spot on the lifeboat.
But Messy-beard is concerned about Angela, and wants to save her. So he knocks out Ricarte,
and takes the inflatable lifeboat himself. Suddenly, Angela descends from the tunnel, being
chased by monkeys. Fortunately, Messy-beard is carrying an outboard motor as a makeshift weapon.
Together, they eviscerate the monkeys. It is now 6 minutes before detonation;
and they have to find an engine for the lifeboat, and make it out to the deck. However,
Guzman appears and knocks Messy-beard out. He tells Angela that he still has a lot of havoc
to wreak in the world. He attempts to transfer the parasite back to Angela, possibly because
she's the ideal host. but Messy-beard regains consciousness, and hits him in the head.
The two find the small engine in the hallway and grab it. They hurry through the hallways,
and run out into the deck, with several zombies at their heels. Messy-beard quickly
unfurls the lifeboat, and drops it into the sea. He tells Angela to jump, while
he fends off the zombies with his sexy beards. Angela reluctantly jumps, and Messy-beard follows.
They make it to the lifeboat, as a storm rages around them. They start the engine
and speed out of the ship's reach, mere seconds before the bomb detonates. But the
parasite survives and swims underwater, until it's swallowed by a fish, implying that it will
infect the fish and the whole ocean soon. The movie ends with Angela and Messy-beard
making it to dry land. They are now in a cab, looking a little worse for
wear. The cab driver jokes that they must have gone to a wild party last night.
