20 WTF Moments From The Resident Evil Movies

11. The Slow-Mo Axeman Fight (Resident Evil: Afterlife)

Here's a fight scene that's half-awesome, half-annoying and 100% ridiculous, as Alice and Claire face off against the executioner zombie from the fifth Resident Evil game.

The scene is extra insane because the executioner quickly floods the shower room with water spraying in every direction, and Paul W.S. Anderson can't help but show most of the fight in slow-motion to a basically abusive degree.

There's not a lot to it, but it's stylishly shot (to an admittedly hilarious extent), looks super cool, has outrageous 3D-pandering effects and ends with Alice exploding the Axeman's head with a well-placed shotgun blast. Basically, what's not to like?
