Resident Evil: Death Island

About This Movie

So, 'Resident Evil: Death Island' hits in 2023 with that familiar blend of horror and action fans expect. Eiichiro Hasumi directs this animated feature that keeps the franchise's trademark tension alive. You’ve got Jill Valentine in a gritty San Francisco, facing a new T-Virus outbreak that's both frightening and atmospheric, while Leon Kennedy’s subplot about the kidnapped scientist adds a layer of intrigue. The animation is pretty solid, capturing that nightmarish vibe well. The monstrous fish subplot with Claire Redfield is a wild diversion, but it gives the film a unique twist. The pacing feels right for a horror action, blending moments of dread with the urgency of the team dynamic. It’s not a classic, but it definitely has its moments.
