I dunno if this is old or not, but I just came across this video in my daily meanderings on Youtube, and it's gotta be a viral video for a movie or something:

I don't exactly trust the comments, but I think a couple of people mentioned ninjas, so I subscribed immediately. :p

I'm always interested in this kind of stuff so I'm hoping to learn some more about this production, whatever it is.

The buzz seems to be that it's for the upcoming movie Quarantine, which is the remake of the Spanish movie [REC], that opens on 10/17/08. Here's the official synopsis:
Television reporter Angela Vidal (Carpenter) and her cameraman (Harris) are assigned to spend the night shift with a Los Angeles Fire Station. After a routine 911 call takes them to a small apartment building, they find police officers already on the scene in response to blood curdling screams coming from one of the apartment units. They soon learn that a woman living in the building has been infected by something unknown. After a few of the residents are viciously attacked, they try to escape with the news crew in tow, only to find that the CDC has quarantined the building. Phones, internet, televisions and cell phone access have been cut-off, and officials are not relaying information to those locked inside. When the quarantine is finally lifted, the only evidence of what took place is the news crew’s videotape.
Seems to fit exactly what we see in the video.
 

Can't see the vid at work (IT nazi's blocked youtube). I assume from the synopsis this will be another Blair Witch/Cloverfield type 'Cameraman POV' type film? It sounds interesting.
 

[REC] is a zombie film. I just got it, and haven't watched yet, though. Everything I read about it though makes it sound fantastic.
