Holy hell, this is some big news for [REC] fans! According to Variety, Filmax Entertainment has given the greenlight to not one but two more [REC] films, from Paco Plaza and Jaume Balaguero, who will co-develop the flicks but solo-direct one each. Work will commence once Balaguero wraps up his thriller SLEEP TIGHT (also known as FLATMATE).

[REC]: GENESIS, from Plaza, will explore the origins of the diabolic zombie mutant virus partially explained in [REC]2. Apparently it’s too early to say what the plot of the fourth film, titled [REC]: APOCALYPSE, concerns.

[REC]: GENESIS is scheduled to hit theaters fall 2011, with APOCALYPSE tentatively set for a fall 2012 bow.. Meanwhile, [REC]2, is coming to U.S. theaters in July.
