One of the only survivors of a man-made plague joins forces with a team of private warriors in a bid to save what’s left of the Earth in this sequel to Resident_Evil, the big-screen adaptation of the popular video game. Picking up where the first film left off, Resident Evil: Apocalypse finds Alice (Milla_Jovovich) still battling the living dead who are overtaking Raccoon City, inoculated with an anti-virus by the nefarious and all-powerful Umbrella Corporation (in addition to the virus itself). Alice encounters Jill Valentine (Sienna_Guillory), a former member of Umbrella’s internal defense team. Forming an alliance with mercenary-for-hire Carlos Olivera (Oded_Fehr) and his cohorts, this tiny band of survivors seeks out Dr. Charles Ashford (Jared_Harris), Umbrella’s top scientist and one of the only men with the know-how to find a solution to the zombie menace; however, they discover that Ashford’s cooperation comes with a price — the scientist’s daughter Angie (Sophie_Vavasseur) is missing, and he’ll help Alice and her partners only if Angie is returned to him safe and sound. Resident Evil: Apocalypse was the first solo directorial credit for Alexander_Witt, who previously distinguished himself as a cinematographer and second-unit director.

In this science fiction thriller, a spaceship is transporting a disparate group of people to a far-away galactic outpost called New Mecca. Mechanical failures cause the craft to crash-land on an abandoned planet that has three suns and no night. The only member of the crew to survive is junior pilot Carolyn Fry (Radha_Mitchell), while the passengers who climb from the wreckage include a police officer (Cole_Hauser) and the prisoner he’s transporting, Riddick (Vin_Diesel). As Fry and the other survivors survey the abandoned dwellings of the desert world while trying to decide what to do next, one of them is killed by a mutant creature living in an abandoned mining site. The vicious and bloodthirsty mutants, who live underground, have killed all previous inhabitants of the planet; they cannot stand sunlight, but research reveals that the planet has a total eclipse every 22 years, and the latest one is due any moment. Pitch Black was directed by David_N._Twohy, who also made the sci-fi cult item, The_Arrival.

This low-budget science-fiction drama, winner of a 1997 Toronto Film Festival prize for “Best Canadian First Feature,” depicts the plight of a group of people clad in prison-style uniforms and trapped in futuristic cube-like metal cells. Their memories are hazy; no one can recall how they got there. Alderson (Julian_Richings) awakens in a cell, seeks an exit, and arrives in an adjacent cube where he’s sliced and diced. Former cop Quentin (Maurice Dean-Wint) becomes the group leader, and he’s challenged by conspiracy theorist Dr. Holloway (Nicky_Guadagni). Government worker Worth(David_Hewlett) remembers a past government link to the project. A discovery that the cubes have numerical codes suggests study by math-student Leaven (Nicole deBoer) while former thief Rennes (Wayne_Robson) knows some escape tricks. However, the extreme behavior of Kazan (Andrew_Miller) becomes a threat to their survival. The film was also shown at the 1997 Vancouver Film Festival.

Worse, Anderton doesn’t even know the victim.
