Resident Evil 4 Plot

The official synopsis of Resident Evil 4 has been released:


Plot of Resident Evil 4

In a world ravaged by a virus infection, turning its victims into the Undead, ALICE (Milla Jovovich), continues on her journey to find survivors and lead them to safety. Her deadly battle with the Umbrella Corporation reaches new heights, but Alice gets some unexpected help from an old friend. A new lead that promises a safe haven from the Undead leads them to Los Angeles, but when they arrive the city is overrun by thousands of Undead and Alice and her comrades are about to step into a deadly trap.


No word of Alsaka or Japan... How come? I thought Alice was going to Japan in Resident Evil 4... Hope to get more details soon.

Resident Evil 4 Trailer

Paul W.S. Anderson has decided to produce a fourth installment of the Resident Evil movie series. There is already a script penned by Anderson the film is currently being cast, filming should to start fall 2009. Of course Milla Jovovich is set to reprise her signature role as zombie slayer Alice, though no formal deal has been signed yet.

The film will be titled Resident Evil Afterlife (Biohazard Afterlife in Japan). We may expect a release for the second half of 2010.
Resident Evil 4 should be more in tune with RE2 in terms of style but with better dialogue and a darker tone. There's enough hand to hand combat in the script for them to bring in a martial arts choreographer (most likely for an Alice vs Wesker fight).

The story reportedly takes place in Tokyo in Japan and in Alaska (with Toronto standing in for Alaska, filming in Canada is indeed cheaper than in the USA...). Patrick Tatopoulos will return and be in charge of the creature effects while Michael Lantieri will be the new Special FX supervisor (in terms of the practical effects).

Glad to hear about this fourth edition of the famous zombie franchise! I am quite impatient to see Resident Evil 4. But beyond gruesome scenes of zombies feasting on human bodies I hope that the plot will delve into greater detail of Alice's world, and that she'll be able to into the headquarters of the company that brought the plague.

Get ready top smash zombies with Alice (Milla Jovovich) in the movie Resident Evil 4!
