Resident Evil: Extinction



Resident Evil: Extinction is the third film adaptation of the Resident Evil franchise.

In just a few years after the events at Raccoon City, the world has become a desolate wasteland. Alice has become a recluse due to fears about her new-found abilities. However, she soon intercepts a transmission mentioning a place where the infection never spread.

Meanwhile, a group of humans including Carlos and LJ are struggling to survive. The news comes as a spotlight through the darkness, but how are they to get there when nothing outside of Umbrella has working transport out of America? At the same time, a scientist is experimenting on how to domesticate zombies - but he needs Alice's blood to put the final touches on it...


 * After the End: Extinction is set In a World in which the T-virus has contaminated and destroyed nearly all life on Earth,

 * Apocalypse How: Class 5, in progress.

 * Big Damn Heroes: Alice gets one when she shows up and uses her psychic powers to kill off the Goddamned Crows attacking the convoy.

 * Dying Moment of Awesome:
 * Expositron 9000: The White Queen
 * Guns Akimbo: Alice wields pretty much all her guns this way. Unlike the prior film in the series, Carlos and L.J. seem content to just use one gun.
 * Heel Face Turn: The White Queen technically undergoes one of these. It just barely qualifies as her programming was designed to prevent the spread of the T-Virus and try to control the epidemic as best she could. As an AI she has no loyalty to Umbrella beyond what is programmed into her and since Umbrella didn't think to do this she turns on them as she quickly concludes that Umbrella is only going to make the outbreak worse if allowed to continue existing.

 * Never Trust a Trailer: The trailer for Extinction started out with a commercial for Las Vegas.
 * Psychic Powers: Alice gets these from the T-virus.
 * Psychic Nosebleed: Alice.
 * Quest for Identity: Alice has shades of this.
 * Ragnarok Proofing: Not perfect, but Extinction and Afterlife do show at least a general idea of what 4-5 years of post-apocalyptic decay can do.

 * Room Full of Zombies: The clown car trailer full of zombies.
