Resident Evil: Extinction is a 2007 science-fiction thriller film, and is the third installment in the Resident Evil film series, which is based on the Capcom survival horror series Resident Evil. The film follows the heroine Alice, along with a group of survivors from Raccoon City, as they attempt to travel across the Mojave desert wilderness to Alaska and escape a zombie apocalypse.[2] The film was directed by Russell Mulcahy and produced by Paul W.S. Anderson.
The film was released in the United States on September 21, 2007 and was commercially successful, grossing $147,717,833 worldwide.[3] The film received mixed reviews from critics. It was released on DVD and Blu-ray in North America on January 1, 2008.
This film was intended initially called Resident Evil: Afterlife according to the leaked script[4] 4 years later, but for unknown reasons it was renamed to Resident Evil: Extinction. Still, in 2010 opened the fourth installment titled Resident Evil: Afterlife.
Plot
The film begins with Alice (Milla Jovovich) apparently waking up at the mansion, just like the beginning of the first Resident Evil. Alice defeats the usual obstacles, including the laser room, though she is eventually killed by a machine gun. Her body is taken outside and dumped into a pit. She is then revealed to be a clone of the original Alice, and the pit is then shown to be filled with hundreds of similar clones. The camera zooms out from the facility's camouflaged entrance, made to look like a shack (the rest of the facility is underground). The shack is surrounded by a high fence and hundreds of zombies are seen trying to get in the facility, deep in the desert.
Five years after the T-virus escaped Raccoon City, it has spread around the world. As organisms are infected, the environment becomes destroyed. Umbrella has placed facilities underground to prevent the human survivors from finding out about Umbrella.
Meanwhile, the original Alice wanders the desert wastelands of the Southwestern U.S.. She has separated from the rest of her group for their own protection, as the Umbrella is trying to track her down and she is afraid that they would kill anyone linked to Alice. She searches for supplies and travels on a motorcycle and wearing a slingshot for protection, and she is carrying a diary she found.
In the Umbrella facility, Dr. Sam Isaacs considers Alice's re-capture a top priority since she has the ability to bond with the T-Virus. He tries to persuade the Umbrella board that he can use her blood to develop a permanent cure, as well as tame the infected. The new Umbrella chairman Albert Wesker (Jason O'Mara) refuses the re-capture, and instead orders Isaacs to use the clones to create a cure, with no authorization to Alice's recapture until they are sure of her location and ability to bond and capture her.
Meanwhile, Claire Redfield's (Ali Larter) convoy, which includes the Raccoon City survivors Carlos Olivera (Oded Fehr) and L.J. (Mike Epps), along with new survivors K-Mart (Spencer Locke), Mikey (Christopher Egan), Chase (Linden Ashby) and Nurse Betty (Ashanti Douglas) along with others, travel cross country, looking for medical supplies, food, water, and gas, as well as a permanent shelter.
One day, in a deserted town, while searching a motel for supplies, L.J. is bitten, but keeps it a secret. The next morning, the convoy is attacked by infected crows, who were feeding on the infected flesh. The crows almost overpower the convoy, killing Nurse Betty and taking out the flamethrower operator, causing the weapon to careen out of control. Alice appears and saves Carlos and others from a fiery death. She uses her psionic powers to cover the sky with a blanket of fire, killing the crows. Alice is introduced to Claire, and gives her a diary she found. The book claims of a "safe zone" in Alaska. Alice and Carlos convince Claire to take her convoy to Alaska. They agree to go to Las Vegas to search for supplies for their trip to Alaska.
Meanwhile, in the facility, Dr. Isaacs' attempts to domesticate the infected have led to a new zombie breed. Wesker's security officer, Captain Slater (Matthew Marsden), is adamant about Isaacs not disregarding Umbrella's regulations. Slater does admit that the "super zombies" (the Crimson Heads) would be useful, but reiterates that Isaacs is out of control, and he is losing his mind trying to re-capture Alice.
Umbrella triangulates Alice's location based on her psionic abilities. Dr. Isaacs has a crate of his new zombies sent to ambush the convoy, against Wesker's specific orders. Most of the convoy, including Chase and Mikey, are killed in the ambush and Carlos is infected by L.J as he turns. Umbrella tries to shut Alice down remotely, but she breaks free from their programming and continues to fight. She finds and kills the Umbrella team at the scene and Isaacs becomes infected as he flees. Alice and K-Mart use Isaacs' computer to track the helicopter's flight path, leading to Umbrella's underground location.
The convoy goes to the site, which is surrounded by zombies. Carlos sacrifices himself by plowing his truck into the zombie mob and blowing them all up, giving Alice and Claire time to load survivors into the helicopter. Alice decides to stay behind. Ordered by Wesker to liquidate Isaacs, Slater finds him locked in his lab, injecting himself with massive doses of Anti-Virus in an attempt to counteract the infection, which causes him to mutate from overdosing on the Anti-Virus. Slater shoots Dr. Isaacs, triggering his mutation into a Tyrant. Isaacs kills all the facility employees, but the base's AI manages to temporarily lock him in the lower levels.
Entering the facility, Alice meets a holograph of the Red Queen's sister AI, the White Queen (Madeline Carroll). The White Queen informs Alice that her blood is the cure to the T-Virus and puts the facility at her disposal to develop a cure. She then tells Alice about Dr. Isaacs. Alice agrees to deal with him. On her way to the lab's lower levels, Alice discovers one of her clones, still in development. The clone awakens, but seems to die from premature exposure. During an intense battle between Isaacs and Alice, they find themselves in a replica of the Hive's laser corridor. The grid activates and slices Isaacs into cubes. Just as Alice is about to meet the same fate, the system is deactivated by her clone, which has inexplicably revived. Meanwhile, Claire has left with survivors in the helicopter, leaving for Alaska.
Later, in Tokyo, Japan, Wesker informs the rest of the Umbrella board that the North American facility has been lost, and declared unsafe, and he will now control everything from Japan. Alice's hologram makes an appearance, declaring that she is coming for him and Umbrella now. Standing beside her clone, Alice looks out onto the hundreds of pods containing her developing clones, as the scene blacks out.
Production
Pre-production
Resident Evil: Extinction was first discussed by Resident Evil franchise writer Paul W.S. Anderson after Resident Evil: Apocalypse opened Number 1 on the US box office in 2004, earning more than $23.7 million dollars on its opening weekend.[5] Anderson told SciFi Wire that he would like to oversee a third installment,[6][7] under the original title of Resident Evil: Afterlife. Shortly after, the film and another planned sequel were officially announced by Sony Screen Gems on June 13, 2005.[2][8]
On November 7, 2005, Davis Film, Constantin Film and Screen Gems announced their distribution rights worldwide[9] with the film's title being changed from Resident Evil: Afterlife to Resident Evil: Extinction.[2] Impressed with Russell Mulcahy's work on Highlander, Highlander II: The Quickening, The Shadow and Ricochet, Anderson signed Mulcahy on as director, stating, "Russell pioneered a very distinct visual style, a lot of moving camera and crane work, lots of very fast cutting. He’s got a very cool eye and sees great ways to shoot. His work certainly had a big influence on me as a filmmaker and that’s why I was very excited to work with him on this movie."[2]
Casting
On June 12, 2005, Milla Jovovich was announced to reprise her role as the heroine Alice.[8] In an interview with BlackFilm.com on September 9, 2005, Mike Epps confirmed that he would also be reprising his role as L.J., noting that "Black people die in these movies and [Anderson] was like, 'Well Mike, I kinda like you.' So then I asked him, 'Are you setting me up to die because if there's a fourth movie, I'm as good as dead."[10] Sienna Guillory was planned to reprise her role as Jill Valentine; however, she passed on the role, citing commitments to Eragon.[11][12] On May 9, 2006 Oded Fehr, Iain Glen, Spencer Locke and Ashanti Douglas were added to the cast. It was rumored that Debra Marshall was originally cast as Cindy Lennox. However, it was proven to be only a rumor.[13] Chris Redfield was rumored to appear in the film portrayed by Australian actor Charlie Clausen and Leon S. Kennedy was also rumor to be played by Jensen Ackles.[14]
Story development
The film's story takes place in Death Valley, where the large scale action sequences take place amid post-apocalyptic landscapes of Las Vegas in broad daylight. Drawing inspirations from western films and post-apocalyptic movies, including the Mad Max series, Extinction manages to reference such predecessors, with plot elements revolving around the shortage of oil, the shortage of supplies, a convoy traveling across a desert, and the desert taking over civilized land.[2]
Anderson stated that the film's story is original and unfolds in a world that fans of the game recognize: "It’s all part of trying to deliver a movie-going experience that satisfies the fans of the game but also provides a fun cinematic experience for a broader audience that has never played a Resident Evil game".[2] The story takes place five years after the events of Resident Evil: Apocalypse. While previous installments in the series had minor changes to plot and characters, Extinction branches completely away from the video game series as evidenced by the fact that Resident Evil 4 takes place six years after the events portrayed in Resident Evil 2 and the world has not become overrun with zombies. References to Code Veronica are made, such as the replica mansion and the viral outbreak itself.[2] A common element used throughout each Resident Evil film is the climatic battle which occurs in the finale.[2] Extinction marked the first appearance of herbs, a healing item in the video game series, as seen in Dr. Isaac's lab,[2] and it also referenced the first film with the inclusion of a replica Hive facility designed after the one in Raccoon City, the Raccoon City Hospital, a holographic computer database known as the White Queen, and the replica Spencer Mansion.[2]
Numerous references to the video game series have been made including zombies being unleashed through a T-Virus mutation. While the concept of the undead remains the same, this film includes "Super Undead". As Anderson explains, these are "a result of Umbrella experimenting with the Undead and attempting to give them back some of their reasoning power, some of their intelligence and a little of their humanity. Unfortunately, these experiments don’t quite work and the side effect is the Super Undead, which are Undead that are faster, stronger and [a] more cunning foe."[2] Other creatures from the video game series have also made appearances in the film, including the Tyrant, a swarm of crows, and a pack of Dobermans (although Belgian Shepherd Dogs were used during production).[2]
Two main characters were added to the film's cast: the main antagonist Albert Wesker (portrayed by Jason O'Mara) and secondary protagonist Claire Redfield (portrayed by Ali Larter) from Resident Evil 2.[2]
Horror magazine Fangoria featured the film in the August 2007 issue and also the cover of the September 2007 issue, talking with director Russell Mulcahy. The following details reported were inaccurate, possibly indicating to a change in the storyline.
- Alice's convoy are traveling across the Nevada desert trying to reach sanctuary in Alaska to meet Chris Redfield and other survivors. In the film, however, there is no mention of Chris.
- The film would feature new "super zombies" that had been "pumped up on some sort of alter-essence steroids. The "super zombies" are created using blood taken from clones of Alice.
- Mulcahy stated concerning the ending of the film trilogy, "As far as I'm aware, this is indeed supposed to close the book."
- Extinction takes place 8 years after Apocalypse. In the film, this was contradicted when characters stated that it had been 5 years since the outbreak.
The character of Claire Redfield did not exist in the early draft scripts for the film and previously Jill Valentine (who appeared in Resident Evil: Apocalypse played by Sienna Guillory) would continue the role in Extinction. Later, producers Paul W.S. Anderson and Jeremy Bolt decided to have a separate game character appear alongside Alice, saying, "We thought, rather than bring Jill back, put her with another game heroine."[15][16]
Filming and post-production
Resident Evil: Extinction began principal photography with a budget of $45,000,000 in Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico[17] in May, 2006[18] after filming locations had to be changed from the Australian Outback to Mexico causing production dates to be pushed back repeatedly from November 2005 to May 2006.[8] Numerous sets were designed by production designer Eugenio Caballero including Umbrella's underground laboratory, the Las Vegas Strip, the New York-New York Hotel & Casino, Paris Las Vegas, Realto Ponte, Luxor Hotel and the replica of the Spencer Mansion.[2] The film entered post-production in late July 2006 with details about production being kept secret[19][20] and with the film's special effects being covered by Tatopoulos Studios and Mr. X Inc., whom both worked on the 2006 film Silent Hill.
In late June 2006, Sony released the films first two production stills which included Alice wearing a costume designed by her fashion company Jovovich-Hawk[2] and Claire Redfield.[21]
Marketing and release
The film's teaser trailer was shown with Ghost Rider on February 16, 2007, and was structured in the same manner of the "Regenerate" teaser trailer for Resident Evil: Apocalypse.[22] The film's website was launched by Sony on February 17, 2007 with confirmation of the September 21, 2007 release date.
The film's teaser poster was leaked onto the internet via a fansite in May 2007,[23] before appearing on IGN,[24] whereas a German website leaked concept art for Extinction including vehicle and numerous set designs.[25] The film's theatrical trailer premiered onto the Yahoo! Movies in late July 2007,[26] with NBC releasing several scenes including the crow attack sequence.[27] The social networking website, Myspace also featured numerous clips of four of the main characters Claire Redfield,[28] Carlos Olivera,[29] Nurse Betty,[30] and Alice.[31] The official website for Extinction launched an online game titled Resident Evil Extinction: Online Convoy Game in August 2007. On September 12, 2007 Sony released numerous promotional clips and television spots[32] and on September 17, 2007 the film's soundtrack was released, whereas the film's score was released on December 18, 2007.
On July 31, 2007, a full two months before the films release, a novelization by Keith R. A. DeCandido was published.[33] At 368 pages, it is the thickest of all of the Resident Evil novels. DeCandido also wrote the novelizations of the first (subtitled as Genesis) and second films
Resident Evil: Extinction was released on DVD, UMD, and high-definition Blu-ray Disc in North America on January 1, 2008. A Blu-ray release of the Resident Evil trilogy, featuring the three films in one package was also released on January 1. A 3-Disc DVD set of the Resident Evil trilogy was also made available in 2008.[34] Milla Jovovich and Oded Fehr filmed a commentary while Jovovich was pregnant, which Fehr expects to be shown "in a little square box in the corner" of the Blu-ray version.[35] The DVD and Blu-ray versions of the film showed previews for Resident Evil: Degeneration, a trailer of Devil May Cry 4, and a video of Resident Evil 5.[36] Resident Evil: Extinction was released on DVD in Australia on February 13, 2008[37] and in the UK on the February 18, 2008.[38]
Reception
Box office
The film was the number one movie at the North American box office in its opening weekend, grossing $23 million in 2,828 theaters, averaging $8,372 per theater.[39] It opened more strongly than the two previous films in the series, and as of January 1, 2008, the film had grossed $50,648,679 domestically and $97 million overseas for a worldwide total of $147 million.[3]
Critical response
Extinction received mixed reviews, with Rotten Tomatoes giving it a 22% score based on 91 reviews[40] and Metacritic giving it a "mixed or average" score of 41 out of 100.[41]
Steven Hyden of The Onion's A.V. Club said that "the movie delivers some simple-minded thrills" and praised the "solidly effective killer-ravens sequence" but felt the film was too predictable, saying: "Anybody who has ever seen a zombie movie can figure out what happens next. Somebody will get bit without telling the others, which will inevitably backfire. Survivors will be forced to shoot suddenly undead friends in the head. One of them dastardly science folk will protect the monsters in order to study them, which will also inevitably backfire. And legions of undead will be re-killed in surprisingly easy fashion."[42]
Kevin Crust of the Los Angeles Times praised the film, saying that "the story and characters are surprisingly engaging, with fight scenes and scares effectively placed between plot turns" although he felt that the ending was too "open-ended".[43] Kyle Smith of the New York Post gave Extinction half a star out of a possible four, saying that the film was "no more interesting than watching someone else play with his Playstation".[44] Scott Brown of Entertainment Weekly said that Extinction "plays like a flabby middle chapter, full of nerdy details but fraudulently short on the ruined Vegas-scape that ads have been promising."[45] Jack Mathews of the New York Daily News gave the film a score of one and a half stars out of five, calling the action scenes "monotonous" and urging audiences to "flee this yawn of the dead."[46] Helen O'Hara of Empire gave Extinction a score of two stars out of five, saying that the film was "better than Resident Evil: Apocalypse and had "an effectively creepy empty world setting" but felt that it's "nevertheless scuppered by a lack of coherence."[47]
Frank Scheck says that as the film is "fast-paved and filled with brisk action sequences" it should "reasonably satisify the devotees." [48]Maitland McDonagh of TV Guide gave the film a score of two and a half stars out of four, saying: "Equal parts Mad Max and Day of the Dead, [Extinction] is no less derivative than its predecessors but moves along at a brisk clip."[49] Pete Vonder Haar of Film Threat gave Extinction a score of three out of five, saying that the film had a "rather lazy pacing" but added that "the way Anderson keeps upping the ante with regard to Alice's ultimate fate continues to amuse."[50]
A common complaint among critics was the noticeable digital airbrushing on numerous close-up shots of Jovovich's face, for which reviewers were confused at the use of, or found unnecessary.[51][dead link ][52][53]
