Resident Evil

No. 8 Resident Evil


Plot: A special military unit fights a powerful, out-of-control supercomputer and hundreds of scientists who have mutated into flesh-eating creatures after a laboratory accident.

Tag Line: Everyone died. The trouble is they didn't stay dead

Trivia: Like in the games, after something is switched on/off, something else happens elsewhere. When the Red Queen is deactivated for the first time, all doors elsewhere are opened.

Connections to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: - Main character's name is Alice. - Computer is named 'Red Queen'. - 'The Red Queen' needs to kill someone who is infected, so she tries to get someone else to chop off their head. (Off with her head!) - Alice in Wonderland paperweight. - A white rabbit was use to test the T-virus. - To enter the hive they go through a mirrored door (through the looking glass). - The Red Queen also succeeds in cutting off "her" head - the medic in the laser hallway. - Kaplan worries about time, as the White Rabbit does. (Mentioned in commentary) - Matt is sitting on the ledge when Rain and JD hear the first zombie. This is mentioned in the commentary as a reference to the Caterpillar.


Quotes: Red Queen: You're all going to die down here.

Rain: All the people that were working here are dead. Spence: Well, that isn't stopping them from walking around.

Not too many video game to movies work out. This one is the exception. A great Zombie action movie that has enough of the game to keep with tradition but still does its own thing. Highly recommended.
