Resident Evil: Apocalypse
Resident Evil: Apocalypse
Alice wakes up in the Raccoon City hospital after the area has been overrun by zombies, and must now make it out of the city before a nuclear bomb is dropped.

Resident Evil: Apocalypse wants the intensity of Event Horizon (1997), but swaps Dr. Weir’s unhinged descent for a flatly-written Alice who solves every problem with a kick and a squint. Captain Miller wrestled with cosmic damnation while Jill Valentine wrestles with bad dialogue, and Nemesis, meant to be terrifying, has all the menace of a clunky fridge compared to the raw, soul-ripping terror of the gravity drive. Where Event Horizon made hell feel personal, Apocalypse just makes it feel like Tuesday in a bad video game adaptation.
