A virus has escaped in a secret facility called "The Hive," turning the staff into hungry zombies and releasing the mutated Lab "Animals" that they were studying.
The complex computer shuts down the base to prevent infection. The parent corporation sends in an elite military unit, where they meet Alice, who is suffering from amnesia due to exposure to nerve gas. The military team must shut down the computer and get out, fighting their way past zombies, mutants, and the computer itself, before the virus escapes and infects the rest of the world.
Alice must also come to terms with her slowly-returning memories. A secret experiment. A deadly virus. A fatal mistake. Did you know Edit. Trivia The makeup department and crew had a hard time dealing with the dogs, who kept licking the zombie makeup, blood and meat off of themselves.
Goofs at around 58 mins The Red Queen tells the survivors that the human body remains active even during death, producing new cells such as hair and nails. This is a common misconception, as the skin of a dead body gradually pulls away from hair and nails as the body dehydrates, giving the appearance of the hair and nails growing. No new cells can be produced by a dead organism. Furthermore, neither hair nor nails are made up of cells; they are made primarily of a protein called keratin from dead epidermal cells.
Crazy credits Near the end of the credits, we hear a line of dialogue from Michelle Rodriguez: "When we get out of here, I think I'm gonna get laid. Alternate versions The version that airs on U. Completely removed from the film is the scene with Milla fighting the dogs. Connections Edited into Resident Evil: Apocalypse Performed by Front Line Assembly as Frontline Assembly Courtesy of Metropolis Records [the very beginning of the song plays briefly when Alice and the infected dog face each other for the first time and both stand sill waiting for the other one to make the first move].
User reviews 1. Top review. Exactly the right movie at exactly the right time. The music and atmosphere, the sets and costume design, the special effects, the cast. Everything lined up perfectly for a young shaggy. That kid was a gothy nerd with love for video-games, horror, industrial music and Mila Jovovich. This movie managed to check all the boxes. Watching it now, it still pretty much holds up. Maybe a little cheesy but stylish and entertaining. FAQ In which year does the film take place?
What is 'Resident Evil' about? Is "Resident Evil" based on a book? Details Edit. Release date March 15, United States. United Kingdom Germany. Resident Evil the Movie. Reichstag subway tunnel, Berlin, Germany. Box office Edit. Plus I believe that most that were involved with the movies, knew little to nothing about the series. One example proves this: Using cover up upon the news, in the second Resident Evil film, to cover up the whole Raccoon City incident, and masscra.
Only for fans to wait and play Resident Evil 4 that says otherwise. I think they are getting ahead of themselves, and looking like total retards? And you gamble with you money upon finding out other aspects of the series. Or to answer a question upon,or about a missing factor of the series.
I know Capcom had something to do with the Resident Evil movies, but they seem like they aren't really involved with the process, or production of the movies.
To have his creation construde whichever way others wanted to profit off of it. In a sense, I think he was all about the fans. Concering himself with what they desired for the series, as well as he did. True, it's nice to see something new, or new characters. But when it comes to the movies, I rather see the original storyline and characters being used.
Even if I know what is, or will be happening, I rather see the whole thing come to life, reality perpective. With real actors and actress portraying the characters. Like they did for the first, original game.
When after I played Code Veronica, and came to playing the first original game, it gave me the sensation of joy to see some of my favorite characters come to life. Through real-live action. With real actors and actress. Phoenix Team Mate, Kaylie A. GT on 29 January This series of movies had potential, but in the end like most hollywood productions, the script plot and overall content got completely butchered.
The video games were extremely eerie. They were ground breaking and extremely entertaining. The movies? Not even entertaining. I'm sure it was enjoyable for anyone younger than 14 but for an adult them? I'm pissed i even wasted the money on it. I'll even give you an example; In RE Apocolypse, the main characters are wandering through a cemetary.
Suddenly the entire graveyard comes to life with decomposed bodies. How do bodies that have been burried for years become zombies? The majority of this movie just doesn't make sense. MoNdI on 25 June hi. The zombies sucks and Never, ever get PAul ANderson to direct a movie.
I'm a huge fan of the games, what in the hell is this?! If they continue to show rubbish like this, then may God help us all. Rubbish effects, crappy storyline, shit matrix copy, and what in the hell were those zombies like?! I can honestly say the games delivers more than the movie ever could! Very, very, very dissapointed. Frankly this movie is enough to LOSE hardcore fans of the series, not make them.
DO NOT, under any circumstances, whatch this shit. And if your'e a fan of the games, steer well clear you do not want to have your faveroute game done in the crap they have produced here. Never get Hollywood to make games into movies. Have yet to see any good movie based on a game.
It would be muchly appreciated. And Milla too IneX on 28 July after i saw the movie, i thought: it would be great if they do a RE game which plays in a lab like in th movie I loved it. After playin' a few Resident Evil games a few years back I was beginnin' to wonder if they were ever goin' to make a movie and they did. When Oct. Resident Evil came out on my birthday March 15th and went and saw it that night. I can't wait until Resident Evil 2 comes out.
Well bye all Resident Evil fans. Neferakasa on 31 May Hey there! I must say, I thought the movie was excellent! Now my question for everyone is I know it's out there Please contact me if you know! Bao on 31 May Resident is the best. God of Death? The movie is considerably OK, but somehow the BGMs are way too loud sometimes, and kinda silly when you get to know that Alice can go 'street fighter' in the mid part. Man, she's probably so calm that she'd kill all cerberuses in a clip, and the last one with a kick ouch!
Ya know, i'm kinda disappointed with this movie well, Code: Veronica has a better story , don't you guys realise that it was short on story? Alice was drag into the hive, half of the 'Sanitation' gang See the guy's badge?
The only relation of this movie with the game was the title, the city, the nemesis project, the virus, the guns Nothing more. Dun ya guys feels weird? Alice'd been in the hospital way too long, and she's not infected? Zombies are supposed to crash thru glass windows like they did in RE3, man. And seriously, Alice's lucky to wake up before October 1st, or she'll be history S: sorry if i had hurt the RE hardcore fans here, i'm also one big fan, but just The trailer's cool, but really hoped for a reaally scary stuffs for RE not the sound-effect fright technique.
Wish the second movie will return the real RE feel. Just my three cents It made me jump, scream, and laugh. I can't wait 'till this movie comes out on DVD. I'll buy it the first day it comes out. Kyle Williams on 26 April Well I had seen the movie a long time ago. But I decided to see it again. But I really didn't pay for the ticket I payed for another movie seen two movies for the price of one. So then I was watching Resident Evil. And there are some bloopers in that movie. They have some seens where the mic for the sounds and stuff.
It would hang down from the actor's heads. I don't know if anyone else saw it. But it was kind of funny. A mic just appearing on the top of the screen. LOL You have to check this out. I'll tell you the parts where I saw the mic hanging from the screen. In the first part where Spence throws the T-Virus into the table. And he is fast-walking hitting that guy with the coffee. When the guy goes to the elevator. There will be a mic hanging from the top.
Just when that woman is about to talk. And Alice tells that one guy why she is here. The mic will be hanging down there again.
It's just kind of funny seeing it. But I don't know it's probably me. If anyone else sees it please e-mail me. Oh yeah go to my website. It's not the real movie script but it's just like the game.
Liz on 25 April I think this was one kick ass movie! Evnthough it really didn't have nothing to do with the games, it was still a great movie.
It takes a lot for a movie to have me checking my closet. Unknown Soldier on 18 April I liked the Movie and think it's good. I never played any of the games but after seeing this might actually go out and buy it. What i did find irritating was the mics that kept on popping up. Dark V age on 13 April From personal experience, I must say this movie ruled. I have never played a single resident evil game in my life, but I enjoyed the movie heartily.
I'll admit, a great many things were cliche, but a lot were not. I was hoping the team that was sent in would have a little more common sense. Until it quits moving. Dont just look at it all stupid.
Anyway, thats usually my big complaint with all undead movies. I was expecting it to totally suck ass, but to my suprise it was way better than tomb raider and final fantasy, or maybe I just have bad taste in movies,,,. I had A few parts that I did not get but I loved that movie. The licker parts and the hellhound parts were my favorite. My secound favorite parts were the zombie parts.
I do not know how the dogs turned into the hellhounds. All I know is that the people turned into the zombies because the gas.
I would pay to see it again! Dark on 27 March I live in england and have seen the movie played all the re games got all the books and know the plot line off by heart. I can't say the movie was fantastic but it was good I can sit though it again and again like the matrix. The movie ties in with everything from the games.
Some people want it both ways they want a good movie and it to be a copy of RE But if this movie with the same plot characters ending had been made a game no of you would be going on like this. BlackPants on 26 March chessy oneliners, matrix shots, stupid girls voice at end If you know what i mean Razor on 22 March Well, the Resident Evil movie in my opinion, was good.
Although I did have a few minor compliants about it. For example, the mansion in the game is named the "Spencer Estate", not the "Banks-Delacroix Estate". But, oh well, at least it had a LOT of easter eggs. Yep, at the end of the movie, when Alice awakes , a shadow passes the screen.
Well, it is Albert Wesker from Resident Evil the game. Cool, huh? Oh, and if you check the RE website, you'll see that the Hive is directly under Raccoon City, and that it was attached to the Umbrella labs in the city. Heh, heh The zombies got into the house via the labs, so there you go. Also, at the end of the movie, it shows a newspaper with the title of "The Dead Walk! So, this tells you that when Alice wakes up, a couple of months could have passed since the Hive incident.
At the end of RE the movie in the lab, a scene with one way glass is played out. Something moves past the glass, it is to fast for a "zombie" but according to another moron of whom I have association. And I quote while disagreeing "It has to be a zombie because it isn't Nemesis because Nemesis is 12 feet tall and huge.
If not Nemesis, what is it? Deo on 21 March I just figured something out. Why I can like this movie so much, why I think that RE has a very good plot, and some decent characters: I use my frigin imagination!
I dont need every little part to be laid out in front of me, I can sit back and fill in my own parts. Its not scary? I personaly agree, but then again, Ive played all of the games, and am alittle desinsitised to this stuff. Plenty of people in the theatre were screaming. You guys want fear? Play Silent Hill 1 or 2 for about 2 hours with the lights out, then go look at a picture of a horribly disfigured face for about a second then go back to playing SH.
That one will really mess you up. Deo on 21 March I loved the movie, though I can understand how it would be bad if you havent played the games. Chengster, Im not trying to trash you at all, but A The Nemisis mentioned in the movie is not the one that chases Jill later, its going to come back for the 2nd RE movie to chase Alice around just look for some info, the second movie is going to pick up right where the first left off B The mansion in the movie was entirly differant from the one in RE1 C I agree about the Lab in RE2 being the top of the Hive, pay attention tot he map shots of the Hive, theres a decently sized portion on the top, just under ground level.
I didnt get enough look to see if it was the same shape as the RE2 one. The RE2 lab also had a giant vertical tunnel in it possibly leading to the Hive. TekunoRobby on 20 March Though we may have gone through some mindless banter atleast none of us posted mindless dribble. I have yet to see this movie, though I've heard from a lot of fans of the videogame that its a very cool movie, my friends who watch movies for entertainment told me its pure crap.
Who's to say who's right, I'm going to wait until I can rent it. Riddick on 20 March I just read all of the above posts, and though its been out for a few days and i still havent seen it, it looks kinda cheesy, it looks alot better then they described in the past Chengster on 18 March well guys I just saw the movie, reading your mindless banter. It pretty much fleshes out the games, tells you how zombies got into the mansion, how you go into the hive in RE2, and how the nemesis is created, as well as opening up a new plotline which I think resident evil 4 will be about.
Darth Reknaw on 17 March This film looks so cool! Looks a bit corny but the games were full of corn. Did any of you see Barry?! I live in England so until May i will have to wait.
I hope i won't be dissapointed. But if you read any of my other comments you will know i get a bit over excited about everything-especially anything Star Wars or Buffy the Vampire Slayer related! It had a lot of style, but very little substance. It bore little resemblance to the game, not enough exposition, and the CGI effects were pretty laughable.
The zombies worked pretty good, and the devil dogs looked great, but beyond that, not much to see. SilentKnight on 11 March I know, I'm advertising again. Well I have a space open for Jill Valentine in my text-based rpg and I thought I would post it here as if it were the classified adds. Just a lil info, if you are interested there is a requirement of showing up at least 3 days in a standard business week.
Here's the web address of the rpg for those ladies interested. IM me for more info that you need. AxLfReDeViL on 10 March i'm one of the best RE players on the whole videogames history, and i can say that it's an insult to take that movie so far at this instance of not to have the proper story that we can appreciate "justice" and that is what we wanna see. Everyone interested on seeing the real anthem he wanted to bring , just take this link: www.
TekunoRobby on 9 March Thanks for the childish insult Lord Magnus Lee "techno-losers" bit , if your wondering I did know about the original development of the RE movie and was looking foward too it.
I'm still kinda bummed out about the movie but like I said; it has zombies, it has action, it has a decent story line. This is a movie about a videogame which I heavily enjoyed, I should be very happy that this is possible instead of complaining about it stupidly like I did earlier. I will be there first day of release with a big smile on my face because I'm going to see a movie with all the things that makes my inner child scream for joy.
Yes Mortal Kombat was a very enjoyable film and the best game to movie translation yet. SilentKnight is a really nice guy and he's helping me appreciate the RE games much more. Just wanted to send out a public thanks to SilentKnight for being a nice friend. I think I might be one of the few who know where you are coming from. Its the truth that when Hollywood gets "creative" with already drawn out plots and themes the results can be disastrous. As far as I'm concerned the only good game movie adaptation is the first Mortal Kombat.
Well, there goes my two cents. Lord Magnus Lee on 7 March Far be it for me to try and say that I am above the comment of anyone else on this message boards However, most of you, who ar efar too numerous to name have no idea what you are talking about. So I am just going to make a few observations of comments I have read.
For one. I would definately pay money to go see a movie that is little more than a carbon copy of the game. Shouldn't that be the point. If you are going to give a movie the same title and stigma of a video game, shouldn't it BE the video game? When you think about it, isn't that one of the biggest failing which prompts the statement of "all video game based movie are terrible.
I know I would. Little known fact that most of you hapless techno-losers probobly don't even know, the movie was originally slated to BE just like the first movie and was directed by a man by the name of Romero director of Night of the Living Dead. Unfortunately, as is often the case, big-shot Hollywood producers, who don't really know anything about what people want, decided to scrap that promising project and creat some kind of moronic dribble of a plot and stick it with the Resident Evil title.
But if it had only been left alone it wouldn't have! Azrael on 7 March You all What are you thinking?? I'm not sure if any of you have read the Resident Evil novels by S. Perry but if you haven't you need to check them out, it will help you understand the plot a WHOLE lot better.
Resident Evil has a very intresting plot on my side..
