Overview

The Umbrella Corporation’s deadly T-virus continues to ravage the Earth, transforming the global population into legions of the flesh eating Undead. The human race’s last and only hope, Alice, awakens in the heart of Umbrella’s most clandestine operations facility and unveils more of her mysterious past as she delves further into the complex. Without a safe haven, Alice continues to hunt those responsible for the outbreak; a chase that takes her from Tokyo to New York, Washington, D.C. and Moscow, culminating in a mind-blowing revelation that will force her to rethink everything that she once thought to be true. Aided by new found allies and familiar friends, Alice must fight to survive long enough to escape a hostile world on the brink of oblivion. The countdown has begun.

Viewing Notes

Impulse grab at the library. Doesn’t seem like it’s been over a year since this was released. Thought it was this year! I recalled enjoying this installment more than the flick (Afterlife) and yep, I really dig this movie. A lot. I just love that they bring in more of the VG characters (LOVE Ada Wong!) and that the entire setup plays out like a video game with each sequence like a new stage or level.

Better character moments that previous the previous films. Better action too and fun payoff. Really hope they bring back all the remaining characters for the next film. Also wish they made one of these every year. I don’t watch the RE films often but they are like comfort food or junk food. So entertaining.

Sorry, haters!
