Resident Evil: Apocalypse cows predictably to the film's target
audience, unleashing a torrent of teenage boy-friendly alt metal. As a
moneymaker, it's unscrupulous. And yet the aggression, mania, and
generally apocalyptic tone of this material fits well with a movie based
on a video game about blowing away crazy zombies. The usual suspects
populate dark corners, including professional scary guys like Slipknot
and Rammstein, as well as middling work from types like the Used and
Cold. But there are also previously unreleased remixes from A Perfect
Circle ("Outsider") and Rob Zombie ("Girl on Fire"). Underappreciated
Italian goth metal outfit Lacuna Coil contributes "Swamped" from their
2002 effort Comalies, and even if Cradle of Filth's "Nymphetamine" is as
cheesy and decadent as you'd expect with a name like that, it's
bolstered by guest vocals from Leaves' Eyes frontwoman Liv Kristine
Espenaes Krull. After all, what horror/actioner would be complete
without a Krull reference? Other notable inclusions on Resident Evil:
Apocalypse include "Join Me In Death" from Finnish goth poppers H.I.M.,
Deftones covering Duran Duran's "Chauffeur" quite capably, and a
typically chilly trip-hop piece from Massive Attack.
