Having previously liked neither the Resident Evil films nor ANYTHING uber chump Paul WS Anderson has ever done, EVER. In his entire life (thankfully he only produced this one). I went to this solely cause I was intrigued by the ‘zombies in the desert’ concept.
I gotta say it was rather enjoyable all round. It stole a tad from Day Of The Dead (military stronghold surrounded by zombies, plus attempts to domesticate the fiends) and also Slither (in it’s monster design), and had an almost identical end-of-level-boss style ending to the other two films. However the villan was a great b-movie English ‘basterd’ and it was surprisingly good - a lot of post apocalyptic fun! Far better than recent zombie garbage like Diary Of The Dead, and it was directed by Russell Mulcahy who is responsible for RAZORBACK, and is therefore a winner in my book.
IMDB: RESIDENT EVIL: EXTINCTION
