This post is going to discuss a popular movie series as well as video game, and comic series.For this post I'll be talking primarily about the movies as the story lines for each do differ somewhat. The main character Alice plays a different role than typically seen from women in modern day movies. The movie series centers around a deadly virus sweeping across the globe turning people in to the "undead" or zombies who quickly bite or eat people, either turning them in to more zombies or killing them. Alice is humanities last hope, she was created by the Umbrella Corporation, the same corporation responsible for the deadly virus that was killing people. However when exposed to the virus she did not turn but instead it changed her it to a lethal killer. We see her take on the protective role for the people she is with and she is the one tasked with saving humanity from the virus as well as the plans of the evil corporation. This portrayal of a woman being humanities last hope and savior while also being the protector is something that is not seen as often. Typically movies such as superhero movies or movies such as Taken or 007 feature men who's job is being the hero. However in this movie we see Alice being the only one who is able to take on the threat facing humanity and save the human race from the virus killing everyone.
