Blog - What I Hope for!

Here is a short blog - Hello everyone! As many horror fans know Resident Evil 4: Afterlife is upon us in two days. I am a HUGE fan of the video game series. They're the only video games I can play non stop. But I also adore the first film. I know a LOT of people hate it, but I love it anyhow. I thought it was a fun flick with a great heroine in Milla Jovovich and some fun (even if they were TOO underdeveloped) soldier characters. The action and the scares were present and the zombies looked badass.
Then we had the first sequel. The trailer kicked ALL sorts of ass and I honestly couldn't wait for it. I thought it was going to be even BETTER than the first film...and then I saw it. My dreams were crushed and my hopes fell. It was shit! What did they do? The direction was horrible, the soundtrack sucked, and the zombies were barely there. The action scenes were badly shot and even the acting was pretty mediocre. Although the saving grace was Sienna Guillory as Jill Valentine. She really was PERFECTION in the role and got EVERYTHING that made Jill in the game. She was the reason I bought the film on dvd.
The I saw the trailer for the Resident Evil: Extinction! Claire Redfield was being introduce, who is my favorite character from the games and was being played by great actress Ali Larter. The trailer rocked; could it possibly be the film to make up for the second film...uhhh...not exactly. First and foremost it WAS an improvement. The direction was better and so were the characters and action scenes. But it still wasn't that great. I just didn't give a damn about anyone, except for Alice. Even with her, that was to an extent.
And now here we are again, with Resident Evil: Afterlife. The trailers rock, but will i be let down again is the question. I was let down big time by 2 and 3. So my wish is for this film to fix the series and to be as good as the first film. PLEASE! I need another good resident evil film.
