Resident Evil: Apocalypse

Directed by Alexander Witt1h 34m2004

As the city is locked down under quarantine, Alice finds out that the people that died from the previous incident at the Umbrella Corporation have turned into zombies. She then joins a small band of elite soldiers, who are enlisted to rescue the missing daughter of the creator of the mutating T-virus. Once lack of luck and resources happen, they begin to wage an exhilarating battle to survive and escape before the Umbrella Corporation erases its experiment from the face of the earth.

Our read: Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004) reads as a sombre, breathless, surreal horror · action · sci-fi entry — extreme in intensity, epic-stakes in scope, measured in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
