Resident Evil: Apocalypse

[James]

Subterfuge is pretty much restating everything I've read in every review so far.

I haven't seen the movie yet, and I don't plan to until it's on TV. I'll save my "I hate this movie without even having to see it" stuff for another time. But I will say this.

The games are derived from various sources, most notably being horror movies. So a game based on movies would seemingly be a simple thing to make a movie out of. So why is it that a horror game gets turned into an action film? It seems awfully ridiculous to have all that kind of stuff, when the game is tailored to the horror and mystery that is derived from horror movies in the first place.

It'd be like if Mortal Kombat was a movie about people defending Earth by having a dance-off against Shao Kahn... Which would actually be a step up from Annihilation.
