Evil resides!

Rating: 5/10 (9 February 2008)

I confess..I am drawn to B movies like moths to a flame! Despite having missed out on the earlier 2 films of the trilogy, I rented this on a lazy evening and got pretty much what I expected - bonus being some sheer eye candy in the form of the gorgeous Ali Larter and the equally lovely Milla Jovovich! The movie is a pretty straight forward zombies vs humans clash and not many surprises are in store. The familiar boo moments and obligatory gory killings compliment the action set-pieces, at least 2 of which (a vicious crow-attack & an expansive shootout set in a desolate, devastated Las Vegas of the future) are quite impressive. The plot, if you can find one, is a mere excuse to deflect any criticism that might come one's way for having the gall in listing a director/screenwriter for the film and not just an action choreographer! Watch it if you're in the mood to satiate a craving for blood, gore & guts - not if you seek food for thought...
