Something rotten is brewing beneath the industrial mecca known as Raccoon City. Unknown to its millions of residents, a huge underground bioengineering facility known as The Hive has accidentally unleashed the deadly and mutating T-virus, killing all of its employees. To contain the leak, the governing supercomputer Red Queen has sealed all entrances and exits. Now a team of highly-trained super commandos including Rain (Michelle Rodriguez, The Fast and the Furious, Girlfight ), Alice (Milla Jovovich, The Fifth Element ) and Matt (Eric Mabius, Cruel Intentions) must race to penetrate The Hive in order to isolate the T-virus before it overwhelms humanity. To do so, they must get past the Red Queen's deadly defenses, face the flesh-eating undead employees, fight killer mutant dogs and battle The Licker, a genetically mutated savage beast whose strength increases with each of its slain victims.
 
"Jovovich kicks butt like a champ and Rodriguez radiates...bad-ass attitude..."  Joe Leydon, San Francisco Examiner
"...a ditsy and dizzying spook-house thriller in high-tech, high-hemline gear."  Jan Stuart, Los Angeles Times
"...heart-pounding action."  Robert K. Elder, Chicago Tribune
"...occupies a zone where science fiction and nightmares collide and intertwine."  Mick La Salle, San Francisco Chronicle

 


Editor's Note

The Umbrella Corporation's Vault, a secret facility located deep below Raccoon City, is sabotaged and a deadly virus is stolen. In the mansion that conceals another entrance to the Vault, Alice (Milla Jovovich) lies on the shower floor, naked except for the shower curtain. She can't remember anything but, as she dresses, she recalls memory fragments. Then, masked intruders burst through the windows. They tell Alice she is a Corporation agent living undercover in the mansion. She goes with them into the Vault to discover who sabotaged it. As they penetrate the Vault, trying to get to the Red Queen, the computer system at the heart of the facility, Alice and her confederates face many horrors--dead bodies suspended in water, blood-red flayed dogs, flesh-eating zombies, and "the Licker," a dynamically mutating monster.

Basing RESIDENT EVIL on the popular video game, writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson delivers a tense, exciting science-fiction/horror film. Anderson and director of photography David Johnson shot the movie in rich silver-and-black, so that its few bursts of color are striking--like the image of the blonde Milla Jovovich in a very short crimson dress, with a trailing veil, and black boots dragging a silver axe behind her.

A Viewer from Pasadena , CA  

The movie starts out GREAT and has good acting . My only real complaint is the plot gets weak at times through-out the movie ; not quite enough continuous HARD story line . All-in-all a good movie for sci-fi type fans .
