In between all the twittering that Milla Jovovich has done with all levels of in-depth reveals for the latest film I somehow hadn’t noticed that this film had not yet released an official synopsis. Hell, I’m not sure if anything has been officially released up until this point, but here we are ending the drought thanks to the fine folks at Screen Gems.

The Umbrella Corporation’s deadly T-virus continues to ravage the Earth, transforming the global population into legions of the flesh eating Undead. The human race’s last and only hope, Alice (Milla Jovovich), awakens in the heart of Umbrella’s most clandestine operations facility and unveils more of her mysterious past as she delves further into the complex. Without a safe haven, Alice continues to hunt those responsible for the outbreak; a chase that takes her from Tokyo to New York, Washington, D.C. and Moscow, culminating in a mind-blowing revelation that will force her to rethink everything that she once thought to be true. Aided by newfound allies and familiar friends, Alice must fight to survive long enough to escape a hostile world on the brink of oblivion. The countdown has begun.
For all those true R.E. fans this must be great news! For the rest of us casual viewers who feel that this series is more of a “guilty pleasure”, it’s more of the same. “Alice vs. Zombies plus some more characters from the game!”. Yep, has “guilty pleasure” written alllll over it. Now all we need is a trailer…
Re5ident Evil: Retribution will be released in 2D and 3D theaters in the U.S. on September 14th, 2012.
