Imagine your big movie gig being a roundhouse kick in the face. That’s how it is Zombie Doberman in Resident Evil. In addition to Alice’s red dress, one thing above all is remembered from the controversial debut of the sci-fi horror series in 2002: the kick in the dog’s face.

Sci-fi horror on Netflix: Milla Jovovich trained for 3 months for the 30 second scene

Despite the criticism of the first film adaptation of the video game, I wholeheartedly defend the series. It was said that she was too far away from the beginnings of horror and the story of video games. Too much senseless action, like in the later Resident Evil games, has been criticized by long-established fans.

I say the first Resident Evil movie is Extremely entertaining for 100 minutes, has great practical effects and cool zombie scary scenes. On Moviepilot, it achieves a rating of 6.6, which is high for a horror film. Milla Jovovich has the necessary charisma for an action heroine.

Jovovich already had several action roles behind him, including The Fifth Element and Joan of Arc. She shot almost all of the stunts for Resident Evil himself. The legendary jump from the wall into the bared dog’s mouth was a particular challenge, Gamespot quotes the actress as saying:

In the end I had probably trained for this sequence for a whole three months.

Here you can watch the legendary Watch stunt in loop:

“Chuck Norris would be jealous”, is commented on YouTube. Of course, Jovovich was hanging on a rope to make the jump. Not even an action goddess can pull off this stunt without tricks.

As with the first Resident Evil part, her husband Paul WS Anderson directed all the others. All six films are available on Netflix. At Amazon you can get the entire Resident Evil series as a Blu-Ray box *.

At Netflix you will also find the 1st season of a Resident Evil series with the recently deceased actor Lance Reddick in the subscription. Unfortunately, the sci-fi project has already been scrapped. Animation fans should check out the entertaining zombie series Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness on the streaming service, starring legendary video game characters Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield.
