Resident Evil is a 2002 horror film written and directed by Paul W. S. Anderson. The film stars Milla Jovovich, Michelle Rodriguez and Colin Salmon. It is the first installment in the Resident Evil film series, which is based on the Capcom survival horror video game series Resident Evil.

Borrowing elements from the video games Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2, the film follows amnesiac heroine Alice and a band of Umbrella Corporation commandos as they attempt to contain the outbreak of the T-virus at a secret underground facility. The film received mixed reviews from critics but grossed more than $102 million worldwide.

Plot:

Underneath Raccoon City exists a genetic research facility called the Hive, owned by the Umbrella Corporation. A thief steals the genetically engineered T-virus and contaminates the Hive with it. In response, the facility's artificial intelligence, the Red Queen, seals the Hive, killing everyone inside.

Alice awakens in a deserted mansion with amnesia. She finds Matt next to her. A group of commandos break into the mansion and take them to an underground train station. The group finds Spence, also suffering from amnesia. The head of the commandos explains that everyone in the group, except Matt, is an employee of the Umbrella Corporation, with Spence and Alice guarding the Hive entrance under the disguise of a couple living in the mansion. The Red Queen released a nerve gas that caused their amnesia. The commando team does not know why the Red Queen sealed the facility.

They reach the Queen's chamber, but it is protected by a defense system that kills four of the commandos. Alice and Kaplan disable the Red Queen and the power fails, opening all of the doors in the Hive. This releases the zombified staff and containment units containing Lickers, mutated animals. During a battle with the zombies, Rain is bitten and J.D is killed. Alice and Spence begin regaining their memories, but Matt and Alice are separated from the group. Matt looks for information about his sister Lisa, while Alice encounters several infected dogs and surprises herself when she is able to defend herself from them.
