Critics Corner: Another Resident Evil?!

One would not think that two sequels to a lackluster film would be in order, especially not one originally derived from a video game. (Do not get me started on the apparent inevitability of a fourth installment!) Nevertheless, we now have three Resident Evil films to digest, including the latest, Resident Evil: Extinction.

I often wonder to myself, “Was 1997 really so long ago?” It has been ten years since I graduated from Georgetown University, and it seems alternately as though it was a lifetime ago and just last week. Whatever the case, my time spent there helped shape who I am today, and, as such, it will forever be a part of me, just as Washington is a part of me. College may only be four years in a person’s life, but the impact those years have can last forever.
