Resident Evil Degeneration

Based on the highly successfully Resident Evil games by Capcom, Sony have successfully transformed the franchise into a full length movie epic thanks to the talents of director Makoto Kamiya. Featuring state of the art computer animation, Resident Evil Degeneration is quite real at times and is easy to become thoroughly immersed in this enjoyable movie about evil corporations, zombies and our famous game heroes Leon S. Kennedy (Paul Mercier) and Claire Redfield (Alyson Court).

The story itself begins seven years after the diabolical incident at Raccoon City where the Umbrella Corporation began the testing of a deadly strain of virus which turned the inhabitants of the city into flesh eating zombies. For both Leon and Claire, they believe that the world is now safe, however when a zombie attacks begins at Harvardville Airport, it's time for Leon and Claire to don their guns and shoot their way through the undying hoard of zombies and hopefully prevent the deadly G-Virus from spreading further into the community.

It features action, adventure and a touch of romance that not only pays homage to the computer game series but also zombie genre which fans of horror or games will truly kick a huge kick out of. Although the live action Resident Evil movies were cool, Resident Evil Degeneration is even better and features extraordinary video and audio quality.

Brilliant!
