The Resident Evil movie series is packed with action and suspense, but not everything always adds up. There are a few moments that might confuse or surprise viewers, from characters disappearing to unexplained powers. Here are some of the most noticeable glitches and plot holes that might have gone unnoticed.
"Invisible" Zombies
In Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004), there's a scene where Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory) encounters zombies that become invisible in certain areas, which is never explained. This creates the impression that they are just used as a tool to increase tension, but there is no explanation for their existence.
The Scene with the Villain's Death in Afterlife
In Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010), there is a scene where Alice fights Albert Wesker. At this moment, it's noticeable that Wesker unexpectedly disappears from the screen, and his fate isn't revealed right away, creating confusion since his demise seems rushed and illogical for such a key character.
Discrepancies in Retribution
In Resident Evil: Retribution (2012), Alice finds herself in an underground base. The film includes scenes where she operates several types of weapons and tech. However, throughout the movie, there's a strange inconsistency — why can't the supersoldiers handle the army of zombies or mutants when their tasks seem to indicate they should be much more effective?
Mutations and Their Explanation
In Resident Evil:The Final Chapter (2016), numerous mutants and zombies become stronger, but no one explains how their transformation occurs. The plot begins to lose logic when the main characters face mutated creatures, and the entire battle seems to lack a clear scientific explanation for how this is possible within the story’s framework.
As you can see, the Resident Evil films are full of intriguing moments and inconsistencies that challenge the viewer's logic. Despite these glitches, the franchise continues to captivate audiences with its action-packed storytelling.
