''[[Resident Evil (Filmfilm)|Resident Evil]]'' is a film series based loosely on the video games of [[Resident Evil|the same name]].
 
Alice (Milla Jovovich) awakens to find the house she is in empty, with no signs of life. Her memory is utterly blank of past events. After soldiers burst through the doors she discovers the unspeakable secret of Umbrella... a secret that may well result in the death of everyone in Raccoon City. Or even the world...
Line 10:
 
The films are:
* ''[[Resident Evil (Filmfilm)|Resident Evil]]'' (2002)
* ''[[Resident Evil Apocalypse (Film)|Resident Evil: Apocalypse]]'' (2004)
* ''[[Resident Evil Extinction (Film)|Resident Evil: Extinction]]'' (2007)
* ''[[Resident Evil Afterlife (Film)|Resident Evil: Afterlife]]'' (2010)
* ''Resident Evil: Retribution'' (2012)
 
None of these films should be confused with ''[[Resident Evil: Degeneration]]'', which is explicitly set in the canon of the videogames and is a CGI piece instead of live-action.

Line 37:
* [[Bottomless Magazines]]: Bullets run out only when the film demands it. Otherwise even the REVOLVERS can shoot non-stop with no need to reload whatsoever.
* [[Canon Immigrant]]: The Red Queen evidently.
* [[Doing It for Thethe Art]]: Paul W.S. Anderson wrote the script for the first film specifically because he wanted to ensure that ''[[Resident Evil]]'' got a decent cinematic adaptation, and the films are loaded with winking little references to the games.
* [[Dwindling Party]]
* [[Dueling Hackers]]: Kaplan has a hacking duel with the Red Queen AI to bypass her defenses.
Line 66:
* [[Slow Electricity]]: When the Red Queen (and the power) are shut down and restarted.
* [[Stab the Scorpion]]
* [[Stat -O -Vision]]: How the Red Queen [[Robo Cam|sees the world]].
* [[Surprisingly-Sudden Death]]: Happens ''four times''. Once in the laser trap scene, once with the "dining room" attack scene, and twice with the Licker.
* [[Take My Hand]]: Rain Ocampo to J.D. It... doesn't work so well.
