Product Description
A zombie attack brings chaos to Harvardville Airport. Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield who fought the sinister Umbrella Corporation during the Raccoon City tragedy 7 years ago, are back. In high-octane Resident Evil style, they're ready to battle a rogue warrior who is seeking revenge after his family was killed in Raccoon City. The deadly G-Virus is unleashed and a new mutated monster goes on the rampage. Will Claire and Leon be able to terminate the virus before history repeats itself?

Resident Evil: Degeneration, the first fully CGI animated feature in the dystopian horror series, presents fans of the game and its subsequent movies with all the things they crave the most: loads of gunplay orchestrated by an attractive heroine, a labyrinthine plot honeycombed with conspiracy theories and government double-dealings, and most importantly, an army of plague victims hungering for human flesh. The CGI animation certainly allows for richer, bloodier and more explosive scenarios than in the live-action features, and if the story itself--RE heroes Clare Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy must fight their way from a zombie-infested airport to the pharmaceutical company that hides a key to the virus, as well as a monstrous new enemy--is so densely plotted as to warrant multiple rewinds, the picture knows it can be simply enjoyed as a player-free version of the game that inspired it. Vocal talent is probably Degeneration's weakest link (the already purple dialogue sounds extra cringe worthy in the mouths of the cast (which includes several voice actors from the games)) with a subplot involving Leon and fellow agent Angela Miller running a close second. However, neither is so detrimental to fans' enjoyment that it might prevent them from checking out the latest--and, it should be noted, not the final--chapter in Resident Evil's complex and gruesome mythology. --Paul Gaita

Fan of the series? Get it! by Louis B. (Bay Area, CA) 5 Stars

Stays fairly true to the games (unlike the live action crap). Ends up being a pretty fun movie to watch. KILLER graphics. They did a good job on production.

What a piece of Crap by William H. L. Garlette (Newport News, VA United States) 1 Stars
November 15, 2009
Very average CGI. Story line way too soap oriented. One good creature and that was it. There's just no way you can do character and emotional development in this format so Just Say No.

Finally a great Resident Evil movie, it's about time by J. McGinn (Portland, OR) 5 Stars
November 10, 2009
I saw this in the video store and decided to buy it. I've waited so long for a good Resident Evil movie. The first one was decent but nothing special. The second was really bad, and the third could have been good but ended up being terrible. It wasn't until Capcom decided to make their own movie, animated through CGI that we got a good RE movie. The story is a hell of a lot better than the life action movie following some terrorist releasing the T-Virus, and corporate espionage. The main characters are Leon and Claire from Resident Evil 2. The are clearly brought to life through CGI. Along with other great characters you end up caring for. The voice acting is really well done, a excellent job. The CGI is breathtaking and is truly life like. Overall skip the bad fake Resident Evil movies and see the real life one, that you'll love whether you're a fan of the games or not.

Awesome movie. The characters are CG, but they flow so smoothly, they look like humans! Great storyline. Perfect condition, quick shipping. Honest seller. I'll be sure to order from this seller in the future.

This movie flows just like the video games. It's pretty sweet and it's in Blu-Ray format.
