HEY DIRTBAG! Go
see Resident Evil Apocalypse!
by Adam "The Hammer" Davis
I don’t often like
movies based on Comic Books so when I heard about Resident Evil 2 you can only
imagine my trepidation. But when one of my friends managed to score a rough
cut of the movie directly from the studio, I figured, “What the hey! I’ve
got some time to kill so I might as well do this as opposed to something else!”
I must warn you however, there are spoilers ahead so when you see the word “SPOILER”
in all caps like that, skip it if you don’t wanna know what happens.
The movie opens with a couple of cops or something riding in a car. They’re
jibber-jabbering about some company called umbrella, and how stuff is going
wrong with it. Then I hear the word Zombie and my ears perk up. So after a very
impressive CGI scene involving the car, the guy who’s driving it ends
up on this street that appears abandoned. UNTIL ZOMBIES START TRYING TO EAT
HIM. So he freaks out, after realizing he does not have many bullets and runs
toward a, quite conveniently placed I might add, Ammo store. The clerk tries
to shoot him yadda yadda, and then gets turned into a zombie. Luckily, for The
Cop, there’s some ammo and a box of health lying around. He kills the
fresh zombie and runs to a nearby Police station or HQ for the uninitiated.
This is where the Producers kick it up a notch, because my friend told me that
if I go to the DVD menu, and press some buttons, The cop would get a whole bunch
of new weapons that he wouldn’t normally get till later into the movie.
So, wanting the best for the Cop, I did. THEN HE GOT A FLAME THROWER! AND A
GATLIN GUN. AND A BAZOOKA! Or maybe it was a rocket launcher, something like
that. The movie was pretty great from
SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THERE IS A
HUGE FREAKING SPIDER IN THE SEWER UNDER THE HQ!
here on out except for one part. Just when the movie hits its cadence as it were, the whole movie starts over with the chick who was riding in the car with the guy cop. Then you have to watch the whole thing over again with a different character. Well, you will if you go see it. I turned it off around there.
