With 3D movies being more miss than hit this summer, we’re pretty curious to see how Resident Evil Afterlife 3D does this time around. It’s one of those sometimes guilty pleasure horror action films but the last one left us feeling very guilty for wasting our time watching it.
Resident Evil Afterlife 3D picks up where the last film ended, the one that we weren’t too keen on, but since it keeps bringing in the bucks, they keep this franchise going. Since the events of Extinction, Alice (Milla Jovovich) has been roaming the entire planet searching for any possible survivors. In Afterlife, Alice will come face to face with her arch-rival, Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts). This is obviously one of the selling points of the film as Alice has never met or come into face to face contact with him. As she enters the decimated city of Los Angeles, Alice stumbles onto one of the many bases of Umbrella, which is naturally overrun and surrounded by zombies. As usually happens with the Resident Evil franchise, Alice is able to find a small team of survivors to team up with who had been underground in Los Angeles since the T-virus outbreak. Alice finds out that there group of non-zombie survivors being held in a prison, among them the brother of Claire (Ali Larter), Chris Redfield (Wentworth Miller) that she must save. Oh Alice, she never gets a break!
Resident Evil Afterlife 3D promises once again that the evil Umbrella organization will be paying a long overdue price for the hell they have caused in the world and for Alice. Naturally with this one being in 3D, there will be lots of flying body parts and blood splatters coming out of the screen for your pleasure.
Afterlife 3D will be hitting theaters this Friday and then right around Christmas for the DVD/blu-ray.
