Resident Evil: Extinction
All bets are off.
In the uncomfortably near future, that pesky T-virus has gotten out of control (yet again), zombifying most of the human race and wrecking pretty much everything else. Now the planet is full of the undead roaming around sun-baked deserts, hungering for the perfect tan.
A small community of survivors is traveling through the wasteland in a convoy of reinforced trucks and spiked buses, on the lookout for gas and food. Eventually they run into their lone, gritty, well-armed savior … Mad Max! I mean, Alice (Milla Jovovich), making her own way while trying to avoid the menacing clutches of the Umbrella Corporation. As the shady Umbrella people try to do various amoral, restorative, or evil things that don’t necessarily make sense, our desperate heroes face increasingly tough odds as they’re forced to take on the ultimate city of sand and sin, Las Vegas…
The Host
It is lurking behind you.
Back in 2000 an incident took place in Seoul, South Korea where a mortician employed by the US Military ordered a large quantity of highly toxic formaldehyde dumped down the drains of his lab and into the Han River. The incident came to light and sparked a wave of anti – American sentiment in the country.
Director Bong Joon Ho has taken that incident and used it as the basis for a genuinely involving and often scary as hell monster movie entitled The Host.
I’m usually pretty skeptical whenever legions of critics worldwide praise a movie. That sounds insane, but generally when a film in the horror genre receives the critical lauding that The Host did, it means we end up with a film that art house frequenters can enjoy but the average fan will find dull and pretentious. That certainly isn’t the case here.
