In 2002, Resident Evil was transported from the world of video gaming and onto the big screen, to become a big budget, live-action feature film. The movie – written and directed by Paul W.S. Anderson – starred Milla Jovovich, Michelle Rodriguez, and Eric Mabius, and followed the story of an amnesiac woman called Alice, who joins forces with a security team, when they become trapped inside a zombie-infested building.
The movie mixed action, horror, and sci-fi, and was a big hit at the box-office upon release. Audiences enjoyed Milla Jovovich’s performance as Alice, and found a great deal of fun in the action sequences, as well as the dialogue.
And speaking of the dialogue, in this post I am taking a look back at the best lines from Resident Evil. These are the some of the more memorable quotes from this popular video game adaptation.

Best Resident Evil (2002) movie quotes

Red Queen – “Even in death the human body still is active. Hair and finger nails continue to grow, new cells are produced, and the brain itself holds a small electrical charge that takes months to dissipate. The T-virus provides a massive jolt, both to cellular growth, and to those trace electrical impulses. Put quite simply, it reanimates the body.”
Rain – “It brings the dead back to life?”
Red Queen – “Not fully. The subjects have the simplest of motor functions. Perhaps a little memory, but virtually no intelligence. They’re driven by the basest of impulses, the most basic needs.”
Mr. White – “Which is?”
Red Queen – “The need to feed.”

Red Queen – “You’re all going to die down here.”

Rain – “I don’t want to be one of those things. Walking around without a soul.”

Narrator – “At the beginning of the 21st century, the Umbrella Corporation had become the largest commercial entity in the United States. Nine out of every ten homes contain its products. Its political and financial influence is felt everywhere. In public, it is the world’s leading supplier of computer technology, medical products, and healthcare. Unknown, even to its own employees, its massive profits are generated by military technology, genetic experimentation, and viral weaponry.”
