Original ‘[REC]’ Gets 4DX Theatrical Run in Spain
While there are currently no known plans to release this here in the States, Filmax is set to release Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza‘s terrifying found-footage masterpiece [REC] in 4DX theater starting next week, on July 10th. The release is to support the opening of Filmax’s second Gran Via Cinemas.
The 4DX technology incorporates up to 21 synchronized effects in the projection. Thanks to it, the viewer has the opportunity to see the main premieres with effects of movement, air, water, heat, aromas, vibrations, as well as weather elements such as fog, wind, lightning and bubbles.
In the film that spawned three sequels and a U.S. remake (Quarantine), a television reporter and cameraman follow emergency workers into a dark apartment building and are quickly locked inside with something terrifying.

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
