Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)

I have been very behind in my movie and book reviews, sorry, :P . Will slowly try to update my reviews, lol. :)

I saw Resident Evil: Extinction a month ago but didn't put up the review immediately because I would have been hacked to death by friends who have not seen it!

This movie is the 3rd installment of the Resident Evil series. The deadly virus developed by Umbrella Corporation has infected most of the world's population turning them into the walking undead. Meanwhile, the heroine, Alice has taken to roaming the Earth to avoid detection by Umbrella Corp which viewed Alice as its weapon and wanted to recapture her. In the last movie, we saw a glimpse of Alice's new ESP powers. In this one, her ESP powers has grown substantially (sorry, can't say what she could do :P). Using her new powers, she saved a convoy which was looking for survivors, supplies and for a place uninfected by the virus. At the same time, Alice's nemesis Dr Isaacs created a serum from the blood of Alice's clones which was supposed to be a cure but instead it created a new kind of super zombies. Unfortunate for him, he was bitten by his new zombie creation when he tried to ambush Alice and the convoy in order to recapture Alice. Dr Isaacs, upon injecting himself with the serum, was turned into a super mutant zombie. But remember who is the heroine, lol. The movie ends with the possibility of a 4th installment... =)

This movie was fast paced and didn't waste time and there were also moments of suspense which caused me to jump out of my seat! My heart was really racing and pounding away. In this movie, Alice changed her ammo, instead of guns like she used in the other RE movies, she was using a pair of kukri knives as her main choice of weapons. The fighting/ action sequences were fantastic =) Yes, slashing, hacking, cutting, blood and gore!! Lol. :P I really enjoyed the movie.

Below is the trailer for Resident Evil: Extinction. But keep away from the kids as it is rated R for violence.
