The point is there will be stunts, zombies, and nostalgic nods. There are some talks of instant cures and clones, and even more returning and redundant corporate baddies, but ultimately no one onscreen cares any more than the viewer. Oh, and apparently there are only 4,000 people left alive in the whole world, and if Alice doesn’t rush back to the Hive to beat an arbitrarily ticking clock, they’re all going to die.
She’s continuing her decades of chilling in the first Resident Evil movie’s Hive complex, which is located beneath the nuked Raccoon City. Luckily, Alice is soon given a cheerful exposition dump by the Red Queen (Eve Anderson), the malevolent artificial intelligence who still prefers to look like a prepubescent Hogwarts student. In the film’s context, however, Alice awakens there back to square one with Wesker having apparently betrayed her (off-screen) by taking away her super-powers again (also off-screen).
Washington is once more a ghost town with all its monuments to power so ravaged and abused that it just might be a prophecy for what the capital will look like in six months’ time. But as the real story begins in Washington D.C., the tantalizing war between the living and dead, which united a newly super-powered Alice plus her usual nemesis Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts) in the last movie, has now been aborted.
