What is this shit

Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)
dir. Paul W.S. Anderson


An Open Letter To the Filmmaking Community:

Sunglasses don't look cool when they're spinning at you like that, revealing their spindly anterior angles and their greasy translucent nosepads.

Nosepads are not cool.

Peace and Love,

Yo seriously how is this an image I'm seeing in a 2010 release. I know the '90s are back but this is some Matrix fan film action with a 60 mil budget.

  1. Anderson is still very deeply a 90's filmmaker-- watch his Three Musketeers, which feels so 1996 that it yearns for a Smash Mouth number to close it.

    His Resident Evils mostly exist to fetishize what he thinks are cool, which are mostly 1) sunglasses, 2) explosions, 3) leather, and 4) his wife.

  2. I have never seen a Resident Evil movie all the way through. One day I'm gonna marathon them, and that's the day I die of alcohol poisoning.
