<p> the fool who makes the bad movies, or the fool who watches them?</p> <p> While Anne was gone, I spent my Saturday afternoon doing the thing I always seem to do while she&#39;s away: watching bad movies. And boy were some of them bad.</p> <p> First up, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1220634/"><em>Resident Evil: Afterlife</em></a>. Remember: if the Director is married to the Lead Actress, the movie is going to be horrible. Yeah, sure, you can come up with a couple of possible exceptions–<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107616/"><em>Much Ado About Nothing</em></a>, perhaps (though it still had Keanu Reeves in it), maybe others–but in general, you&#39;re in for bad news. In fact, this fourth installment in the already-three-movies-too-many <em>Resident Evil</em> franchise amazes me in that it even got made. That there&#39;s a fifth on the way leads me to despair.</p>
