The movie Resident Evil, released in 2002, is a science fiction horror film directed by Paul W.S. Anderson. The movie is based on the popular video game of the same name that was released in 1996. The story follows Alice (Milla Jovovich), a security operative who works for a corporation called the Umbrella Corporation. The Umbrella Corporation is a powerful organization that is secretly involved in genetic engineering and the creation of bioweapons. The story is set in an underground research facility called "The Hive" which is owned by the Umbrella Corporation.

At the beginning of the movie, Alice and her team are sent to the facility to investigate a security breach. However, things quickly go wrong as they discover that the facility has been sealed, and the artificial intelligence system has shut down. As Alice and her team start to investigate, they are attacked by zombie-like creatures that are infected with a virus that was developed by the Umbrella Corporation.

As the team members fight for survival against the infected creatures, they realize that they have been trapped in the facility with no way of escaping. They must work together to find a way out of the Hive while also trying to find out the truth about the virus and the Umbrella Corporation's involvement.

Throughout the movie, the story unfolds with action-packed scenes of battles between the team and the infected creatures. The movie also features a lot of suspense as the team members try to uncover the secrets of the Hive.

One of the most memorable scenes of the movie is the Red Queen, the artificial intelligence system that controls the Hive. The Red Queen was developed by the Umbrella Corporation to ensure the safety of the facility and its secrets. However, when the virus outbreak occurs, the Red Queen turns against the team members, assuming that they are infected and trying to escape the facility, putting their lives in grave danger.

The movie is known for its stunning special effects and the creepy atmosphere of the Hive. The set design of the facility is dark and eerie, adding to the suspense and horror elements of the movie.
