We posted a teaser trailer for the fifth installment of the Resident Evil franchise back in January, but now the first full trailer for Resident Evil: Retribution has landed.  I've only ever seen the first film in the series, so I'm all kinds of confused by this trailer for the fifth installment.  That said, action looks to be front and center here and I doubt Resident Evil fans will be disappointed by this trailer.  Moreover, this new film brings back at least a few cast members that perished earlier in the series so Retribution may act as sort of a throwback for diehard fans.  If you missed any of Steve's set visit coverage, including interviews with director Paul W.S. Anderson and the cast, click here.Resident Evil: Retribution stars Milla Jovovich, Michelle Rodriguez, Sienna Guillory, Oded Fehr, Kevin Durand, Boris Kodjoe, Shawn Roberts, Colin Salmon, Johann Urb and Li Bingbing. RE5 opens September 14th. Hit the jump to check out the trailer.Hereâs the official synopsis for Resident Evil: Retribution:
The wildly successful film franchise adaptation that has grossed nearly $700 million worldwide to the popular video game series, âResident Evil,â returns in its highly anticipated fifth installment, âRe5ident Evil: Retributionâ in state-of-the art 3D.
The Umbrella Corporationâs deadly T-virus continues to ravage the Earth, transforming the global population into legions of the flesh eating Undead. The human raceâs last and only hope, Alice (Milla Jovovich), awakens in the heart of Umbrellaâs 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.
