In a world ravaged by a virus infection, turning its victims into the Undead, Alice continues on her journey to find survivors and lead them to safety. Her deadly battle with the Umbrella Corporation reaches new heights, but Alice gets some unexpected help from an old friend. A new lead that promises a safe haven from the Undead takes them to Los Angeles, but when they arrive the city is overrun by thousands of Undead - and Alice and her comrades are about to step into a deadly trap.

Why it matters

A bombastic, action-heavy zombie romp that leans hard on 3D spectacle over story, capturing the franchise’s shift from survival horror to blockbuster set piece.

  • Wes Craven’s protege Paul W.S. Anderson returns to ramp up the action and special effects, leaning into flashy visuals and kinetic fight scenes.
  • Best viewed in 3D to appreciate the immersive effects that elevate the otherwise thin narrative and uneven performances.
  • For fans of Resident Evil’s video game-inspired universe and unapologetic spectacle, it delivers the high-octane thrills expected from the saga’s middle chapters.
  • Not for those craving tension or depth—this is blockbuster horror as video game homage, trading scares for speed and style.
