Quarantine 2: Terminal

There's something on the wing of the plane! Oh...wait.

QUARANTINE 2: TERMINAL

And here...we...go. Open with a POV of a flight. Oh, and I enjoy our double entendre opening. They're coming in for a landing.

Cut to a cab and a woman buttoning her blouse. She's a stewardess dressing for work as they rush not to be late. Why are they late? The one snuck backstage at a concert and got her friend a signed CD. That's nice.

Gate 42. I bet it holds the answers. Exposition dialogue shows that Backstage Girl is getting married. Other girl is maid of honor. Then there's a phone call to show BG's dad is a pilot.

The pilot seems sick. "Head cold." He mentions that dogs in his neighborhood are sick. Ooo Eee...cut to the captain of the flight talking to Jenny, aka Maid of Honor. She then goes to meet George, a kid travelling by himself. He 'knows the drill' of being the alone-in-flight kid. "I can take care of myself."

Cut to an older man in a wheelchair being brought on-board. with his wife. "He can hear you, but he can't speak...Parkinson." Awww.

Hello Cliche Fat Guy cracking jokes about the weight of the plane now that he has entered. "What's a fella gotta do to get a  beer around here?"

Captain notices other pilot's headcold. We randomly meet Token Black Gal by complimenting her nails. Then some teacher with hamsters. They try to push the animals into an overhead compartments. One of them bites the fat guy...please be Zombie Hamsters. Teacher is apparently attractive because the two stewardesses share a line about him. To equal things out, in enters Token Black Guy. We just cut around showing other passengers who should probably be named "Fodder"

Take-off. Fatty has to turn off his cell. TBGuy sneezes. So...Who will turn first? I'm going pilot. Anyway, a couple passengers are nervous. Flying and all. Kid yawns cause it's 2nd nature to him. Random Guy rubs his Random Gal's belly to confirm a Random Baby that's most likely not going to make it to the world.

"You are now free to move about the cabin..." And everyone pops out electronics. The kid has a PSP. Says he's going to be picked up by his "Smother. Step Mother."

Later. Night. Nervous TBGal is Nervous. Hasn't seen her husband in over a year. Random Guy is ripping someone over the phone and gets confronted for using the thing. Teacher helps the Stewardess and
then hits on her. She doesn't really appreciate it, but then starts acting sweet. I guess cause he's attractive. I don't get it.

There's another Random Couple. I'll call them Horny Fodder. Guess what they're doing? No, they aren't in the bathroom going for Mile High yet. It's most likely coming, though.

Cut to an old woman with a cat that "never leaves the apartment building." I enjoy that they're building all these red herrings...unless they all work, which would be hilarious, too.

Stewardesses discuss teacher, again. Fat Guy asks for water. Breathing heavy. Looks at his hamster fight. HAMSTER ZOMBIES YES

"I Can Take Care of Myself" kid gets a pop from a wild swinging Fatty. They write off Fatty as just drunk. The Teacher is watching a news report on the place from the first movie. Fatty is getting worse.

Jenny goes to check on Fatty. He throws up on her. "Stop the plane and let me off!" We get reaction shots from the other passengers.

Backstage Girl is helping Fatty as the old lady's cat licks up his vomit. Jenny cleans up real quick. Lets her hair down...

Fatty rages. Rushes to the cockpit."I Can Handle Myself" Kid goes for a rear naked choke. That fails. Seeing this, a few other passengers jump up to help. One guy is told to help but won't so that later we'll be happy for his death.

Dude, did someone just curb stomp Fatty?...AWESOME.

In the cockpit, head cold kept the captain alert to what was happening. Nervous TBGal is apparently a medic and checks on the kid, who may have a concussion. Teacher volunteers to help, but we know it's his evil hamsters that caused this...hey, where's that cat?

Jenny and her friend have a private chat. Jenny freaking out about how she didn't do anything right. Captain interrupts this to alert them of an emergency landing. It's bumpy. Where's the daggone cat? In the Horror Closet?

Bumpy, bumpy. Fatty slides and hits his head. Ha? The stewardesses work to strap him in. Backstage girl gets bit. Uh-oh. Big guy is roaring like a shark out for revenge. Couple guys force him into
the bathroom. They land.

Horny Couple's Guy is recording this on a camcorder. Control is telling them to hold position on the ground. Captain is an old guard guy, so he barks back and takes a spot.

When they open the door, a worker is yelling at them for being  in the work place. Like they care. Sadly, no one is helping the old paralyzed man so his wife stays behind with him. They go to a door but it's locked. So worker takes them a different path. Jenny goes to see how the pilots are. They're hold Fatty at bay, tell
her to go on. So...she does. Uh...okay?

"I can handle myself" kid takes a look at the video game style platforming location that we'll probably see taken advantage of later on. Bit girl hasn't talked since. Worker is leading them to "Tarmac" level. I don't know airplane lingo. More looking around.

Worker gets to the door...Locked. "This has never been locked before." Sounds safe. He starts looking around at other doors. Metal lifts. Nothing opens. No codes working. They're on Lock Down.

"You ever hear of terrorism?" They're not going anywhere. "This is not okay." Good dialogue Ms Obvious. So everyone yells at each other under Medic quiets them down...by shouting "Quiet." Okay?

Sirens. Cops, Cops, Cops, Fire engines fire engines, helicopters. "Attention...Do Not Attempt to Leave. Help is on the way...You are now under Quarantine." And the window they're looking out gets blocked off.

Everyone gets on their cell phones. Jenny calls her pilot daddy and leaves a message begging him to call her back and tell her what to do. Worker called 911. They haven't heard about this. Another noise. They're lighting up the area. Everyone starts harassing Jenny as if she knows what is going on. "Just go fetch
the captain, honey." So she asks the Worker for help getting back to the plane.

He alerts us that he has a 3-year old daughter ensuring a death in his future. Other people say they'll go...mainly for selfish reasoning. Daggone it. Where is the cat?

Power gets shut off. Oh good, it looks like they want the non-infected people to have absolutely no chance whatsoever. Again, no one trust the teacher with the demented Zombie Hamsters.

Some emergency lights on. They make it back to the plane. More locked doors. Inside...the plane appears empty. Why are my cat senses tingling? Jenny is scared. Red and blue lights running down
the cabin to build tension. Worker walks in with a flashlight.

Jerk who didn't help barges in. "This is a mess man!" She opens the bathroom and...there's blood but nothing else. TBGuy wants his laptop. They look around and pick up some flares. The Parkinson's
guy is still around. Looks down to try and give warning to something. Maybe the cat took everyone down.

They search. There is 5 of them (minus the man who can't move).Worker drops into the baggage hold to find the medic's bags. Jerk comes as well...to find his own bag. The teacher comes down to and
we see a mutant hamster running about. Oh noez. They find the empty container for the hamsters but teacher isn't concerned.

Jerk's suitcase had a gun in it. A hamster rage attacks the worker who takes a golf club to it...who brought a golf club?!

Jenny climbs back up first. Sees a bloody laptop. Oh no. Token Black Guy?! She looks down the aisle and we see Headcold Pilot crawling around and snarling. She turns and Infected Captain grabs her.

Worker hops up and battles the infected guy until Jerk shoots the diseased one.We hear a voice over outside alerting people there is a gun inside the building. They find Token Black Guy. Guess what. He's dead.

They help the paralyzed man into a wheelchair and push him away. Jenny finds a woman. "He-l-l-l-l-l-lp me!" And then she rage charges. So they lock her in a room and try to retreat back to the
others. Which they do.

Hey, the cat lady has the cat. We hear that Jerk got blood on his face. Nice way to get infected. Medic works on Backstage Girl. Jerk reveals that he doesn't just have a gun but extra ammo.

Jenny's dad called and said to "Take the stick..." and then all the cell phones died. She reveals he taught her to fly but she was too afraid to do it herself...so one day he just let go and told her to "Take the stick."

So she walks around inspecting weird noises alone like a genius and finds some blood. Doesn't immediately turn and run. Anyway, Worker and Teacher have barricaded the woman. Jenny goes to talk
to the crowd and they rabble until Medic tells them to shut up. She has the power.

"You ask me it looked like some sort of ****ed up rabies." Thanks Worker.

Oh no. Poor wheelchair guy sees a Zombie Hamster and tries to get attention. Awww. They argue as he stares and tries to groan. The kid sees the giant rat just as it jumps and bites the poor man. Daggone it.

For their safety, they load him into a place and lock it. Turns out the rat is a labrat. The kid points out the teacher brought the animals onto the plane. They're not Zombie Hamster. They're
Zombie Rats. The teacher tries to explain to Jenny.

"You can't bring labrats...I never would've made it through security." She instantly buys that. Oh, Jenny...he hugs her just in time for Fatty to reappear with a rage charge. Where the heck have you been?!

So they wrap a cord around his neck and group hang him. That works I suppose. Worker gets a call telling him the CDC is coming in. The kid goes to Jenny and tells her the teacher is lying. "You believe him cause you like him." Smart kid.

Enter the CDC with blinding white light...and guns. The one guy who has been recording stuff is told to turn it off. They take the Jerk's gun. Because they're too dumb to calmly ask the others what is happening, they instead order the bitten people to be unlocked and taken out. I'm sure this will end well.

"You've been exposed, but we don't know if you're infected."

"EVERYTHING. WILL. BE. EXPLAINED!" ~ Repeated line. They're told to "take the protocol." Cat Lady agrees. IS HOLDING THE CAT!

AWWWWWWWWWWWWW YES! CAT BIT HER! "THE CAT IS INFECTED!" They unleash a hail of gunfire at the cat, which somehow causes the paralyzed man to realize "Dude, I can walk now!" and attack.

He gets filled with bullets afterwards. The CDC guys try to leave, but are locked in. They have automatic weapons so they shoot the door open. Camera Guy (Alias Horny Guy) rushes out with them and
they're all gunned down. Bummer dude.

They pull in a wounded CDC guy. A wail is heard in the darkness. Also, Jerk is infected (blood to face earlier) so we get a quick cut to black. Everyone non-infected locked in a truck. Okay. 3rd
Act, here we go.

"Each cartridge had it's own color!"

CBDT. Chemical Biological Domestic Terrorism. So the wounded guy gives us backstory and recaps the first movie. "Rats are the carrier." Uh-oh, Teach. Anyway, CBDT guy tells them they won't be leaving, then steals a gun and blows his head off.

So people start breaking down. Worker recalls that there is a flood tunnel they might be able to use. As he goes to tell them directions he is conviently attacked by HeadCold Infected. So they are slightly delayed while killing that guy.

Afterwards, everyone leaves the big container and Worker starts to lead them to the tunnel. Seriously, HeadCold was just a filler jumpscare before the next logical step.

As they go, they realize is Henry (Teacher) is missing, then one of the fodder characters gets got. We cut to Henry (Teacher) locking and loading. Meanwhile, the group is moving forward and run into Backstage Infected. Jenny and her have a brief confrontation before Infected is knocked off a scaffold to the ground, dead on impact. Awww...I guess.

Worker continues to lead the way and this reminds me of the fireman from the first movie meaning this guy probably dies just before they get where they're going. I could be wrong, but I'm filling time while they look for maps or junk.

Kid stole Teacher's bags and shows that he intentionally brought the infected rats on board. This isn't really much of a shocker. I'm guessing most viewers were waiting for the nice guy who 'made a mistake' to be revealed as the villain.

Worker explains their route, thus making him useless. Infected people swarm but Teacher arrives and shoots Jerk Infected and Fodder Infected. Not sure about Cat Infected, but I heard a meow. Not Teacher tells Kid to give him a box. Kid opens it and looks at a bottle. "That's the antidote, right?"

Worker charges NotTeacher and gets a bullet. Yeah...there you go.

So, NotTeacher takes the antidote. "How'd you get that through security?" "The same way I got my rats through...friends." He's heading to Kansas City and continues to talk about spreading the plague for the good of humanity. He explains what he's doing as he does it.

Kid asks about something. "What is that?" "You're a smart kid." Huh?!

So, NotTeacher gets to dialogue on how gov't is bad. "Earth could use a good plague." He then injects himself in the eye with the antidote while Medic, Kid, Jenny (The only ones left) just stand
there and watch.

NotTeacher takes the kid as a hostage. The girls split up. Token Black Infected arrives and chases after Jenny. They run around for a bit until she gets him into a position to drop something heavy on him a couple times. Thanks for getting rid of that plot hole, movie.

So, Jenny continues on and finds another Fodder Infected who bends over backwards for no legit reason. Medic jump scares Jenny to show that she found a special seeing device. Thermal vision. So
Jenny puts it on and we see that Medic got bit off screen.

With that, Medic goes to die heroically or something. She calls out to the infected and gets swarmed by 4 immeditately. Great plan you idiot. With those four now in the general area of Jenny, she
decides to leave and chase after NotTeacher & Kid.

Why did Medic give up when she KNEW there was an antidote with the person she was chasing? Anyway, as Jenny moves forward, she finds mice. "Just mice." She continues following a path. Really though, what kind of plan is shouting "COME AND GET ME!"and then standing there until they do? Daggone it, climb some steps, yell, and run away.

Anyway, Jenny finds Kid. "It didn't work! Don't come down here!" He begs her not to come down, but she does. She gets attacked by NotTeacher Infected and her Thermal thing is knocked off so we can get shots of the struggle in Thermal vision. The Kid throws on the vision, finds a gun, and shoots NotTeacher in the chest, Nice shot.

"DID YOU GET HIM!?!" Poor Jenny. He gives her the vision so she can see NotTeach. He's still moving, so she grabs something heavy and bashes him up. They check and neither were bitten.

The Kid goes to explain what happened, but suddenly, the Terminal is exploding. They really don't want people getting out, huh?

"We're not going to get out of here...I just want to go home!" Uh, Kid, it's not time to be an idiot. She gives the kid the vision thing and puts him in a tunnel that she had to break open. She follows behind him. So we get the vision in the tunnel. Sounds of more explosions. And they crawl...they crawl and crawl and crawl.
They just crawl...and Jenny gets tired. And breathing heavily.

Then the kid looks back and sees that she was bit on the stomach. Uh...oh... She starts showing the signs, "I'm infected. Keep going." The Kid decides to start being stupid and instead of trying to run stays behind to shout "I'm not leaving you! You won't hurt me!" Movie, this is taking too long to get to a now ridiculously obvious end.

So they crawl..and crawl and crawl and craaaaaaaaaaaaawl. And they get to a way out. Gee, I wonder what happens now? "Jenny! We made it!" He squeezes out of a...I don't even know. Shouts back for Jenny to follow. "I'm not leaving without you!" And Jenny attacks. DUH.

Thus the kid walks away, looks back at an off-screen smoldering terminal, and continues walking.

Then, we cut to Thermal Vision and show that the Cat made it. YAY, CAT! Wait...

THE END.

Rating: 3 out of 5.
I enjoyed the opening build towards who the first infected would be and it wasn't a horribly insulting film. You could go much worse for a sequel, let alone a direct-to-DVD sequel.
