“A secret experiment. A deadly virus. A fatal mistake.”
In Paul W. S. Anderson's Resident Evil, a virus escapes a clandestine research facility, transforming its staff into ravenous undead and its lab creatures into hellish monstrosities. An elite military squad is dispatched to quell the contagion, navigating a labyrinthine complex where science and horror converge. The film's claustrophobic corridors and relentless hordes create a relentless assault on sanity and survival, grounding its apocalyptic terror in the cold, clinical environs of a corrupted science lab.
