Biohazard: Degeneration (バイオハザード ディジェネレーション)

Resident Evil: Degeneration
Directed by Makoto Kamiya
Written by Shotaro Suga
Presented by Capcom

Degeneration is pure action. 7 years after the Raccoon City incident, by coincidence or fate, Claire Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy team up again to clean up a bio-disaster.
The movie draws elements from Resident Evil 2 & 4 leading up to the events before Resident Evil 5.

The story is pretty basic, the world of Resident Evil is changing. Multiple corporations have their hands dirty with Umbrella. Terrorists want the T-Virus and corporate insiders leak it to them. Claire and Leon fight against a bio-terrorist infected with the G-Virus whose mutations parallels that of William Brikin.

Paul Mercier and
Alyson Court are the voice actors for Leon and Claire respectively. Paul the voice actor for Leon in 4 and Alyson for Claire since her introduction to Resident Evil. The returning voice actors gives fans comfort

The story pulls from everything fans already know about the series, throwing at you just another outbreak and just another BOW. The scene changes and action shots are so fast paced, resembling a roller-coaster. And the CGI so realistic, you'll forget you're watching an animated film.

No plot-holes are ever patched and no major events happen. Degeneration is a fan-friendly, gorgeous, action packed, side-story for fans of everything Resident Evil. The end of the movie makes perfect timing as we wait to kill some zombie-esque Africans in Resident Evil 5.
