‘Resident Evil: Afterlife 3D’ didn’t screen for critics…

…but Screen Gems was nice enough to set up a courtesy screening for us critics this morning, and I’m on my way to it right now. Hopefully it’s so bad that I’ll be able to rant about it in a fun way…

share and enjoy

at least it’s supposed to be filmed with real 3D, not the post-converted kind

but I’m pretty sure it ignores the ending of the third one with the dozens of Alices, which would be my ultimate fantasy, after an eleven way

I think “so bad it’s good” is all she can reasonably expect.

This is not a series known for respecting continuity. It’s long since left the story of its video game roots, and that story was itself pretty convoluted.

Of course! But the whole “not screened for critics” thing doesn’t inspire much hope.

Actually, the movie does follow up on this.
