Resident Evil
Based

Alice (Jovovich) and Rain (Rodriguez) as the leaders of an elite
commando-team who are tasked with breaking into “The Hive,” a
vast underground genetics laboratory in Raccoon City, operated by the
powerful international Umbrella Corporation. A deadly T-virus has
been unleashed, killing the lab’s personnel and resurrecting them
as the evil and ravenous undead. Battling the hungry zombies and
mutated lab animals, the team has just three hours to deprogram the
lab’s complex computer, “The Red Queen,” and shut down the
facility before the virus threatens to overrun the Earth.
