Resident Evil: Apocalypse is a 2004 apocalyptic horror science fiction film, the second installment in the series of film adaptations based on the Capcom survival horror game series Resident Evil. Borrowing elements from the video games Resident Evil 2, 3: Nemesis, and Code: Veronica, Resident Evil: Apocalypse follows heroine Alice, who has escaped the underground Umbrella facility, who must band with other survivors including Jill Valentine and escape Raccoon City alive. The film was directed by Alexander Witt, from a screenplay written by producer Paul W.S. Anderson. The film begins with... Alice recalling key events from the first film. On September 29, 2002, thirteen hours after the initial T-Virus outbreak in The Hive, the Umbrella Corporation sends in a research team to re-open the complex. The entire team is slaughtered by zombies and Lickers who have been sealed within the complex. With the entrance now open to the surface Umbrella establishes a security perimeter around Raccoon City to keep citizens in a quarantined area safe. After surviving The Hive, Alice was recovered by Umbrella and used for experimentation.
