The film is a found-footage horror movie primarily focused on the immediate terror and survival within a quarantine zone, rather than offering a political critique or solution regarding government response, public health, or societal structures.
The movie features visible diversity in its cast, including a Black actor in a prominent supporting role, but these casting choices do not appear to be explicit DEI-driven recasts of traditionally white roles. The narrative focuses on a horror scenario and does not critique or center on traditional identities or explicit DEI themes.

The film 'Quarantine' does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative is solely centered on a found-footage horror scenario involving a mysterious viral outbreak in an apartment building, with no elements pertaining to queer identity or experiences.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
