Resident Evil: Extinction

When Resident Evil was released in 2002, many fans were disappointed of the direction of the movie but some were satisfied. It didn’t truly follow the plot of the excellent video game franchise but it was a solid horror film with some unique aspects. In fact, I liked it and was excited when the sequel, Resident Evil: Apocalypse was released. But as most were, I was incredibly let down, not only did the movie not improve on the original’s flaws, but it failed in every area a movie can…..miserably. It stands today as one of the worst movies I have ever seen. And oh my god, wait for it…….Extinction is worse. Jaw droppingly bad writing, terrible terrible acting (Oded Fehr as Carlos may be the worst performance this year) and quarter-ass plot. I don’t really need to elaborate, this is a truly awful film. And, unfortunately, it gets worse, due to the cliffhanger at the end, it becomes evident that the title, Extinction, is not referring to the Resident Evil movie franchise.

NO STARS
